Mostly a curse... 😒

For years I've suffered from an Autoimmume disease that prevents my eyebrows from growing in. My girl @sandifoxy at @couturebrowsslc made me look gooooorge yesterday! Seriously she does THE best work!

I debated whether to share this or not. Like many, I want to always show my "best self" on social media. But my personality is raw and it's real. I'm vulnerable, open, and try to be as genuine as they come. In July I made a decision to compete in the 2017 March NPC show. The pic on the left is Aug, the pic on the right is October. My coach has me eating more calories than I've ever had on a plan before. My weight is UP by 8 lbs. I thought for sure I was doing something wrong. But pictures tell you exactly what is going on despite what you put in MyFitnessPal, despite what the scale says, despite how frustrated you are if you didn't have the best lifts. I am so, so grateful to have found my coach, @fitbliss_lynnds and at this point if I came in dead last the internal and external growth that has come from this is enough of a win for me. (Haha ok, ok of course I want a "win." I'm too competitive for that ish.) 🙄

#Fuzzyblankyfeels... Rainy days require a warm drink, a cozy blanket, and a good book in hand. Current read: "You Are a Badass." What's your favorite book you've been diving into lately?

And besides, have you seen the booties on those #fitblissgirls???I’ve gotta keep up! 😆🍑 (at Big Mountain Barbell)

Lately my life feels as if it's not making a whole lot of sense and I've had a LOT of days where I just feel... "empty." So today I am reminding myself that things don't always have to make sense, progression can come from pain, and tough times shape us into who we are. So here's to the good days and the bad... And also to the creators of ice cream, soft blankies, and Netflix. 😋

"You never have to explain yourself to anyone. If someone can't accept you for you- then it's time to move on." I love the constant reminders I have to "judge less and love more." Every day, someone or something comes into my life and teaches me more and more this extremely important lesson. If you find yourself constantly judging or belittling others, or looking down on their current or past actions, then maybe it's time to look at yourself a little more deeply. More times than not you'll find it's reasons within yourself for why you might be loving a little less, and judging a little more than you should be...

How do you work towards finding your balance?

I wanted a perfect ending...
