Happy Birthday to Me!

Happy Birthday to me! I’m one year older and one year wiser…I guess lol. After having my daughter in 2014, I really don’t pay attention to my birthday anymore. At this point, it’s more about how I’m feeling about myself and what goals I can set for the next year. So what I’m saying is I’ve been in my early thirties for a while 🙂

I’m not a fan of the “How old are you?” or “What do you do?” questions because the answers do not define who I am or where I’m supposed to be by now. Truth be told my immaturity level is a smooth 22 years old and it’s probably going to stay that way and what I do, is easy and complicated to explain all at the same time. I mean, have you seen my bio and the answer to the “Where are you from?” question?

Another year to say “Happy Birthday to me” means you get the chance to reflect on where you’ve been and where you want to be. Over the last year I have continued to develop awesome friendships, experience beautiful moments with my family, run a 10K, travel to Las Vegas and Toronto, gain more fabulous clients and style an amazing look book. What I look forward to in the upcoming year is our new house, coming in under an hour and a half for the Army tenmiller, style more clients, open myself up to even more fabulous business opportunities and a nice trip to Mexico. I think that’s all doable in the next year right?

A very Happy XX Birthday to me!


I’m so grateful for the people in my life and the lessons I have learned over the last year. I look forward to more adventures, lessons and opportunities to come!
