THAT Girl's Trying to Remain Optimistic Mar 10, 2022

We get it... Life is hard. Life is... brutal. Antagonistic. Uncertain. Scary. Lonely. But, then there are times where life is absolutely wonderful! However, sometimes we get stuck in such difficult periods of life that we forget how warm the sun can be once the rain clouds part. If you have ever felt like, or currently feel like you're starting to forget how magnificent the sun can shine, grab a cup of coffee or tea with a cookie and tune in for some advice on how to enjoy life regardless of the weather, and how to remain hopeful that the sun will shine again.

Also, sorry if the episode is chaotic. We're doing a raw and unfiltered episode today guys, hope you enjoy! Love you :)

In light of Valentine’s Day coming up, you and I are going to have a sit down.

THAT Girl's Skincare Routine - Pt. 1: The Science Jan 26, 2022

So you’re telling me that you drink 8 cups of water a day, you eat a well-balanced diet, you practice stress management techniques, you’re an active gal, you follow a gentle and high quality skincare regime consistently, and you’re STILL struggling with acne? Yeah that makes sense! Don’t fret, in today’s episode we’re talking all about the science behind your skin - what is skincare, the different skin types, different forms and causes of acne, common skin conditions, and more. So, if you’re someone that takes their skin seriously, has questions on why their skin is doing something you don’t know what the hell it’s doing, or wants to start a healthy skincare journey but don’t know where to start, well honey you came to the RIGHT place. Sit back, relax, and get ready to learn some terminology that’ll make ya skin crawl <3

Okay so I woke up, fixed my bed, applied my skincare, had my oat milk lavender latte, cleaned the kitchen, swept the driveway, listened to 29 TED Talks, hiked the Great Wall of China, found a cure to cancer, meditated so hard I opened my third, fourth, AND fifth eye, wrote 90762 things I'm grateful for in my devotions journal, and ate breakfast all before 9 am. Am I THAT Girl yet?

No. You forgot to floss.
