This was June, it was busy and breathless and beautiful ✨

I was ‘accused’ of toxic positivity on the internet a few times last month. There were loving admonishments and backwards comments. But the funny thing is: I’ve also received so many beautiful compliments just this month about how authentic my voice is on here. Big shocker, it’s the perceived accusations that make me bristle and want to write about them. Yes. Im pretty peachy and positive in real life too. I’ve done a lot of studying on the fawn response, people pleasing, over-accommodating, and all kinds of other responses we develop over a life time@of conditioning. So, yeah. I’ve still chosen to remain in my overly positive too-muchness.

I’ve said it before, I’ll write it again: this is a place where I absolutely adore sharing the beauty of the everyday (which is far from mundane) and giving y’all little tiny bite size pleasures to slurp up. I wanted to live a life where I was surrounded by beauty and I made it happen. It happened. We create the things we choose to focus on and we can find balance in acknowledging the bad while promoting and highlighting the good.

These were some delicious moments from June. Busy, beautiful, breathless ✨
With special gratitude to the f*cking awesome humans I’ve gotten to share it with, y’all are the reason it’s all so fun.
