🧁🍰Today’s for the women who paved the way, the women making waves, and the little ladies already planning their empires. Past, present, and future 💄✨

 


Today we celebrate the incredible women who shaped us, stand beside us, and rise after us. The past, the present, and the future — all beautifully connected. 💐




💋 International Women’s Day 

She wore red lipstick like armor.
Curled her hair like a crown.
Slipped into her heels and stepped into the world like she owned it.

Because she did.

She ironed collars.
She signed contracts.
She ran households.
She ran businesses.
She ran the show — sometimes without getting top billing.

They called her “sweet.”
They called her “proper.”
They called her “darling.”

They forgot to mention:
She was disciplined.
She was brilliant.
She was unstoppable.

A true lady knows how to set a table…
and set a boundary.

She knows how to bake a pie…
and bake up a plan.

Soft smile.
Sharp mind.
Steel spine.

So here’s to the women who came before us —
pressed dresses, handwritten letters, and all.

And here’s to the modern pin-ups —
building brands, raising babies, chasing dreams,
and still finding time to powder their noses before the next big move.

Darling, straighten your seams.
Fix your crown.
And remember —

A classic never goes out of style. 💋

Happy International Women’s Day.

Bless your beautiful soul — now go shine that light out loud!

🌸Mom's Journals, entry # 19

   🌸 Reflections from Mom’s Journals — Entry #19 🌸 Abundance flows when we love what we are doing. 🌸  Examine what I believe to be impossible… then change my beliefs. 🌸  Let my loving soul guide my behavior.  🌸  Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.  —Mark Twain 🌸  If your not doing what you love, you are wasting your time. ( widely attributed to Billy Joel ) 🌸  Forever is composed of NOWS! —Emily Dickenson 💭 Examine the Impossible  Examine what I believe to be impossible… then change my beliefs. Here’s a little trick I’ve learned: whenever something feels impossible , it’s usually just my brain doing its best dramatic performance, like it is auditioning for a soap opera. You know the type—“ Cue the violins, this project is clearly the end of me! ” But let’s be honest, most “impossible” things are just… big. Too big to swallow whole. So instead of brushing it off ( or chasing the ...

🌸 Mom's Journals, entry #5

🔥 Fan the Flames Reflections from My Mom’s Journals, post #5 “Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.” — Rumi I love this quote! And I love the little doodles in my mom’s journals , too. She was so creative, so artistic, and so full of joy. I miss her more than words can ever express. What I wouldn’t give for just one more day with her—sitting beside me in her physical form, or as she so playfully called it, her “ earth suit .” ✨ A Small Quote with Mighty Meaning I’m learning how to truly live out the wisdom packed into this small but powerful quote: “Seek those who fan your flames.” Why did I spend so much time with people who only wanted to dim my light—much less fan it? 💡 Choose the Right People Life is short. So incredibly precious. There’s no time to waste on people who don’t support your passion, your purpose, or your joy. 🔥 There’s no space for “ flame-blowers ” when you were born to burn bright. So light that sucker up—and keep it on high! ❤️ In Memory ...
