HOW I CREATED MY DREAM LIFE: It feels SO good to be back in San Diego + living the boho fun-loving gardening life I’ve always resonated with deep down! Here’s how I did it: ☀︎︎ Positive Psychology - I focus on my strengths instead of weaknesses, work on building the good in life instead of what “bad” things may need to change, + I try my hardest to manifest from a place of joy! ☀︎︎ Building confidence - Even when I don’t feel confident, I fake it! If you don’t believe in you, why would anyone else? ☀︎︎ Expecting the best - Negativity doesn’t exist for long! I expect things to work out for me, miracles to happen, and negative experiences to bring about something good. 🙌🏼 ☀︎︎ Affirmations - I affirm what I want in my head all day every day. “Everything is always working out. Life gets better + better. I am successful.” Negative thoughts trigger my brain to switch to affirmations at this point after practicing for years. 🙌🏼 ☀︎︎ Meditation - When I’m not sure which path to take, meditation leads the way! We always know the answers + the path towards our highest good. Sometimes we just need to slow down and listen. ✨ Let me know in the comments which resonates with you most - leave-it-to beaver or my boho gardening era! I’m eager to hear your thoughts! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I’m here to help you navigate your journey towards healing, health, and creating the life of your dreams.

We hung with the sea lions + explored the caves. Which is why La Jolla Cove is one of my top 5 favorite spots in San Diego! Here’s all this beach spot has to offer: » Beach access from stairs. » A field of grass to picnic, play sports, or look out at the ocean. » The option to snorkel + swim with sea lions! » Huge flat rocks to walk out on/sit to watch the waves and beautiful views. Not to mention the trendy restaurants + boutique shops just a quick walk up a hill! Insider tip: if you can’t find parking on the street or in front of the cove, there’s paid public parking on an off street by the shops.👌🏼 Comment below if I’m forgetting anything else amazing about La Jolla Cove! … Motherhood Home + Healing #mylajolla #sandiegomom #sandiegobeach #sandiegobeaches #lajollabeach #thingstodoinsandiego #sandiegoblogger

DOES IT EVER FEEL LIKE EVERYTHING YOU DO AS A PARENT IS WRONG? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🙋‍♀️ I’m not gonna lie, in some ways I like it. Concern about the way we’re parenting is so freaking important! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because these children we’re raising turn into the adults of our society, and with mental illness so high in our generation it’s about time we take a look at the way kids are treated. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’re feeling overwhelmed though, and as if you can’t do anything right no matter how hard you try - take a step back. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Lean into your intuition and trust in that. Other moms don’t know your story, your family, your situation, etc etc etc. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Only YOU know what’s truly best for your kiddos, mama. ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’re looking for some extra motherhood or parenting inspiration you can head to my many blogs or Pinterest boards where I share all of my favorite parenting quotes and motherhood tips or tricks!

Want to hear something crazy? I used to walk with my head down, barely noticing anything going on around me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It made me a target, easy to be manipulated, unable to stick up for myself or hold my ground. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Until I began to heal, and caught myself constantly looking at the ground instead of the beauty around me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So I began to hold my chin up, shifting my energy with it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It took time… I was so uncomfortable + worried what people around me would think or say. But no one even seemed to notice. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The changes were internal (and huge). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And so, I’ll continue to lift my chin + teach my kids to do the same. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ [Here are few of my favorite spots from a girls’ trip to Nashville!] … Motherhood Home + Healing
