Karla In Progress

💥❤️💥

Might f**k around and love myself unconditionally today. 🖤

Shout out to everyone making progress that no one recognizes because you never let anyone see your darkest moments. You've been silently winning battles and transforming yourself. Be proud of every step you're taking in the right direction. Keep going because you've got this.

Also, never EVER compare your Chapter 1 to someone else's Chapter 20. You have no clue what it took me to get to where I am today. Years of failing, years of falling and getting back up, years of feeling like I was making no progress, many tears, and lots and LOTS of curse words. 😉 But not once did I give up on myself. All of this is possible for you too.

So if you need a source of support, guidance on where or how to start, an accountability partner, a dose of tough love, or just a hype man, I'm just a message away. 🥰

What are you doing to set yourself up for a better year than this one?

Self-care. What do you think of when you hear or say those words? A day at the spa? A weekend away? Something that doesn't happen very often? 🤔

As a single mom, that term was never really part of my regular vocabulary when my kids were growing up. It wasn't until a few years ago that I adopted it as part of my life. But what does self-care consist of?

It could be something as simple as getting an extra hour of sleep or simply staying in bed a little longer because you're tired. 💤

It could be taking a long, hot bath while reading a silly or steamy romance novel. 🛁📖

Maybe it's as simple as taking a trip to Target by yourself without a time limit so you can roam the aisles freely. 😍🎯

Or in my case this past week, it was finally getting the balls to do something crazy with my hair without the need for anyone's opinion or approval. 🤘🏼🤩💜

Never in my life have I made such a bold and drastic change without consulting with the most important people in my life. Doing it brought a whole new level of confidence and zero-f**ks-given type of freedom that I never knew existed. Do I care what people think? Of course I do. I wouldn't be human if I didn't admit that. Am I done letting that stop me from doing the things that bring me joy? Hell to the yeah. 😎

Here's to doing whatever the hell YOU want as a form of self care. Do it. You'll thank yourself. 💕🥰
