Hello and thank you for stopping by! I’d like to start off by saying
that I initially wanted to create a blog about my transition into green
beauty along with my favorite products but in the couple of years since
I’ve entered the green beauty space, I’ve gotten overwhelmed by how
over-saturated its become with endless products and brands. While I
realize that Instagram has become a virtual marketing tool with brands
using influencers to drive sales, I couldn’t help but also recognize the
lack of authenticity in general on various social media platforms. I
mean, here we are as women, being invited into other peoples’ illusion
of authenticity every single day whether it’s via Instagram, Facebook or
other platforms, that we are actually beginning to FEAR truth, honesty,
self-awareness, living within our means, doing whats best for ourselves
as individuals and we are slowly but surely distancing ourselves from
REAL life. It saddens me that as an adult and the fact that we've just entered into 2018, there is still competition, pettiness, bullying,
self-doubt, anxiety, the desire to fit in, lack of inclusion and so
forth, that continues to exist as a direct result of social media. I was
reluctant at first to start this blog because the idea of putting my
life out there was something I never imagined doing, but that all
changed a couple of years ago when a complete stranger responded to one
of my Instagram posts. I thought to myself wow, someone I’ve never met
is going through the same thing I went through and wants to hear my
story! Her name is Laura and although we haven’t met, we have been pen
pals ever since. The instant connection with Laura soon made me realize
that women all over the world have gone through and continue to go
through exactly the same situations and experiences, some of which are
never spoken about openly for whatever reason, almost as if we are
scared of facing the reality of them. Why is this? Why are we so
scared? Why do we let fear control the conversations we have? I hope to
bridge that gap and create a platform that welcomes thought-provoking
conversations about life, beauty, wellness and so much more.
XO,
