This week for #freeyourmindfriday, Jill took over our Instagram stories to talk about mental health and erasing the stigma. Check out her bio below! My name is Jill, I’m a wife, a mother, an entrepreneur, a philanthropist, and a self-care advocate. I’ve struggled with depression, anxiety & PTSD for my entire adult, teen, and early adolescence life. It used to …
We are all a work in progress. No one has it figured out, everyone is constantly learning and growing and changing. It’s really easy to beat ourselves up for being a work in progress and for not having it all together. But how beautiful is it to realize that you don’t have to be in this space of self-criticizing forever? …
One of my favorite things about my journey of self-discovery and self-care is the process of finding the best version of myself. I’ve been writing this blog for about a year now, and as I continue writing, I continue learning more and more about who I am and what I need. I started writing this blog when I was fairly …
Take a break. You’re worth it. The truest words to be spoken. If you’ve been following along with my recent posts, then you know I’ve been struggling a lot lately. I’ve been putting pressure on myself like no other which has led me to be self-critical and overwork myself. In turn, I’ve felt disconnected, helpless and emotional. I knew I …
I’ve been doing a lot of yoga and meditation lately to help me through. On the weekends, it is nice to have some extra time to do longer or multiple meditations. I did one this weekend that was focused on self-love, something I haven’t been doing so well lately. The instructor said to think of a time when I felt …

Throughout the years, I have grown to hide less behind my smile, but I still find my moments where it feels more comfortable, safer and easier, to show up and hide behind that smile. In …
Our lives can be full of comparison. We might feel like we are always falling short. We see someone else living the “perfect” life or experiencing the “perfect” relationship, and we feel like what we have isn’t good enough. We look at where we once were and get frustrated with ourselves that we might not be in that space anymore. …
You deserve to see the light within you that others see about you. How often do we dismiss the love and compliments that others give to us because we aren’t able to see it for ourselves? When we do that, we only create this cycle of feelings of not being good enough. We so often forget to see that we …
This week, I heard that only 7-8% of Americans practice self-care. That statistic really surprised me at first. As I started to think about it more, though, it made sense. We’re all busy, and self-care seems like a lot of extra work if you haven’t started practicing it. As someone who enjoys running, it reminds me of trying to get …
I can still get discouraged easily. It’s hard when you have poured your whole heart and effort into a project, and for people to question it or tell you no. This may seem similar to you. You may have a dream or goal that people tell you that you can’t reach. They may not believe in you, and that makes …
