Do I have the right aesthetic to be successful?

I stayed up way too late worrying about my aesthetic last night. 

It’s tough in a social media era dominated by a sad beige aesthetic, when you find other baby or maternity shops online and then notice how beautifully curated and neutral their feed is… you get this weird pang of “oh fuck, I really am a hot mess”

I have a few beautiful stock photos for this page thanks to the beautiful friend photographer I’ve hired. But this isn’t me. It’s just the curated version of me I know the internet loves to see. 

Instead I live with mismatched couches, scattered hot wheels, and a cluttered table. 

This energy to be beautiful online gets me second guessing every time. It makes me wonder would I, could I – it makes me doubt my current success

But most importantly it makes me doubt my true energy which is a bit more colourful, loud and messy than others. And it’s probably okay to be that way. 

Here’s to all of us wondering how we can fit into the tiny pretty boxes of life when we want to just be something else ☕️

I filed for financial compensation following negligence of bookkeeping services that I hired out for almost 18 months.  The thing about small claims court is they really want you to nail […]

Prince George, BC | My Rhododendron Died

I’m from BC’s southwest coast, rhododendrons grow everywhere. They are the hedge plant of everything, but in Prince George, BC you will be hard pressed to find a rhododendron because they are just not zone 3 plants.  When we purchased our current home we were surprised to discover a rhododendron – but there was much […]
