2015. It’s a brand new year with a fresh start and a clean slate. 365 blank pages to write your story—exactly how you want it to read. What could be more exciting than that?! For most, each new year brings a lot of emotions. Excitement, thrill and happiness, sometimes mixed with a twinge of sadness that another… Continue reading {Don’t Let Anyone Dull Your Sparkle}

Thinking about this past year, I can honestly say it was a year full of amazing moments, although it took me time to fully embrace this perspective. At the same time,… Continue reading {A New Year, A New Me}
