🎶 “It just seems like your life's been a dream since the moment you opened your eyes... All I know are the blossoms you grow -- but it's awesome to see how you rise!“ 🎶
Sometimes all we see is the and we think “They have the perfect life.“
You know what I'm going to say about that, right? 😉
Perfection is NEVER the reality.
Perfection is NEVER the reality.
Perfection is NEVER the reality.
I'll even go a step further to say that striving to be “perfect” should NOT be celebrated or even encouraged.
❌ Let's STOP bragging about doing things “perfectly”, working longer hours, or carrying a heavier load than everyone else.
❌ Let's STOP bragging about how busy we are, as if it's some kind of competition.
Because guess what? THAT'S NOT SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF.
Of course we want to produce quality work and achieve great things, but at what cost? Which things are ACTUALLY important for you to produce or accomplish in this life?
🎯 Let's change the goal from how much we can produce or achieve or how close we can get to perfection -- to how much BALANCE we can create in our lives. How many healthy BOUNDARIES and RELATIONSHIPS we are able to develop. How much we can LEARN and GROW and EMBRACE our humanity.
⚖ Let's normalize being proud of the BALANCE in our life instead of the BUSYNESS.
Let's remind each other (and ourselves) that we are human. Grace is required.
🌈 You are beautiful.

👀 Look who’s back!
👚 After taking a bit of a break to focus on other creative projects, I’m excited to (try to) find some balance and get back into designing fun apparel!
🎉 Starting with the launch of my kids’ latest obsession (and consequently my newest source of inspiration) — Disney’s ! (shop link in bio)
🏰 Although I’m a who grew up near , I’ve never really been that into Disney (sorrryyyy) BUT having 2 toddlers and lots of random quarantining has given me new perspective - particularly on the more recent films like and .
I am loving the empowering messages being sent through the more recent Disney movies…
⭐️ You ARE the miracle - you are important and worthy just by being YOU, not because of what you can do/accomplish or because you try to be “perfect”
⭐️ Embrace your imperfections and live fully as your own unique self
⭐️ It’s okay (and good for you) to not carry so much and take care of yourself
⭐️ Mind what your parents say, but remember that you make your own decisions, and it’s okay to go against “tradition”
⭐️ Be sure to listen to that still, soft “inner” voice that whispers and calls you to a bigger purpose
⭐️ When you’re lost or confused, just focus on doing the next right thing
⭐️ You feel what you feel and those feelings are real - it’s good to feel and process your emotions
⭐️ You actually don’t need to fall in love with a stranger at 16 and get married
…I could go on but you get the point.
🥂 Cheers to a new era of raising emotionally intelligent, imperfect, courageous and compassionate kids (and perhaps to re-learning these things ourselves)

🎉 Happy Father's Day to all the rad dads and father-figures out there!
Gettin ready for 'Merica's bday party like... 🧁🇺🇸
When you start strong on Monday... but by Friday you no longer have the energy to filter yourself 😆
I'm not sure if people have "favorite" shirts, but THIS one is definitely high on my list!
It is actually one of the first shirts I created, and it holds a special place in my heart because it reminds me of so many good times and inside jokes shared while working long, late nights with a great boss and team... !
Working with great people is truly incredible, and can make all the difference in how much you enjoy your daily work (as you likely know if you have ever worked with *not* great people).
🥂 So here's to all the great work friends and bosses -- the humble, competent, reliable, positive, team-players who are always there to share in both your stress and success -- may you find them, may you be them.
🔥🥩🍗🍤🍻
Already thinking about the delicious BBQ we'll be smoking on the grill for this weekend! 😋

For those who like a little wine with their summer...
A little something for everyone this
The 🇺🇸 is coming up in just over 2 weeks, so place your order soon!
: It's okay to be dissatisfied with your life.
In fact, that is often how you get up the courage to finally change it. At some point, you become uncomfortable enough to do something about it.... to find another job, to move somewhere else, to end a relationship, to join in as an outsider, to try something new, to just go with your gut and "see what happens", etc.
We often automatically listen to our inner critic, believing that "this is just the way my life is" or "I could never do that/be good at that" or "I can't just *throw away* all the time and energy I've invested in this"
-- instead of taking the time to challenge our thinking --
Do I really NEED to stay in that [insert job, location, relationship]? Do I really HAVE TO continue on this path or trajectory I am on?
What would happen if you decided to change your life? What do you see when you dream of a life you love?
What area is causing the most frustration? What is one thing you can START DOING about it now?
☑️ Start applying to other jobs?
☑️ Start attending more events to meet people?
☑️ Start contacting Realtors?
☑️ Start going to counseling?
☑️ Start opening up to friends about your struggles?
☑️ Start asking for help instead of managing it all on your own?
☑️ Start accepting help that has been offered?
☑️ Start prioritizing your own physical, mental, spiritual health?
You are so much more than what you do, who you date, or whose parent you are.
You CAN change your life. You CAN decide to try a different path. You CAN say *F THAT* to your inner critic who's been telling you otherwise. ✌️
Excited to be headed to the beach this weekend for our annual ! 🏖
Sure, it's only an hour away because , but here's hoping I only feel because of the beach, not the peeps 😆

Is it time to embrace the next chapter of your life? 📖
When I became a parent, I fought hard to hold onto the once-simple freedoms I had in my pre-kid life. I missed being able to do what I wanted, when I wanted, for as long as I wanted. I missed being able to successfully juggle work, spouse, friends, family, hobbies and social time. I missed having time to drink my coffee instead of reheating it 3 times before I finally gave up and dumped it down the sink hours later. 🙄
The life I had wanted, was now not the life I wanted. The life I *thought* motherhood would bring me was not the reality. My high expectations left me feeling like a failure when the transition was harder than I thought it would be. I was grateful to be a mom, but also full of guilt for not feeling grateful *enough* – for not enjoying every single moment of my new season of life.
Transitioning into a new season can be TOUGH. Even if you are excited for it. Even if you want it more than anything. Even if you know how blessed you are despite how you feel. It’s okay to admit this. It’s okay to feel this. OF COURSE you feel uncomfortable. This chapter is new. You’ve never read it before. We all suck the first time we do something new.
I knew I needed to embrace my next chapter of life as a mom, but I kept re-reading the previous chapters, longing for them. I resisted turning the page. I wasn’t ready.
Sometimes we need to grieve our own unmet expectations. I had to mourn the freedoms of my pre-kid life, as well as my unmet expectations of how I *thought* I would handle my transition to motherhood (you know, with all the grace, love and happiness that mothers *should* have).
Grieving is an important step in the transition process. Don’t avoid it. Don’t try to numb or distract yourself from it. Let yourself feel the uncomfortable feelings without trying to immediately “fix” them. Give yourself permission and time to grieve, even if your inner critic is telling you it’s “unnecessary” because “everything is fine”.
Are you resisting turning the page? What is holding you back?
Life is too short to keep re-reading the same old chapters – to keep living in the past. Your future is calling, and despite what you may have believed, it is bright, beautiful and full of hope! It’s not too late. You are right where God wants you to be. You are braver than think.
I am still figuring it all out as I go, but I invite you to join me in turning the page to see what’s next.
Cheers to the next chapter! 🥂
I mean... I might... 😆
H E Y J U N E ☀️ 🏖
Whether you’re living it up staycation style or able to make *real* vacay plans this year, we hope you have all the this summer!
So grab your drink of choice and relax near your favorite body-of-water (yes, jacuzzis count) because there’s no better time than a new month to start fresh with a new determination to prioritize your life and spend time in the sun with those who matter most to you.
Today we honor and remember our brave heroes❤️🤍💙
Dear : Some of you may know I live in the same neighborhood where 13-year-old was tragically murdered on May 9th (Mothers Day).
As we continue to come together as a community to support the Bailey family during this time, we have been tying aqua ribbons (Tristyn’s favorite color) to our mailboxes and neighborhood trees, giving out aqua stickers, bracelets, keychains, hair bows, etc. and planning local fundraisers.
To further spread the aqua-love, I’ve designed a collection of Tristyn-inspired aqua clothing and accessories to raise funds for the Bailey family, who plan to do something to honor their daughter’s memory. 🤍💙🤍
100% of profits from this collection will go to Tristyn’s family.
See link below to shop the collection and learn more about Tristyn’s story.
P.S If you purchase any items, please tag us in a photo so we can keep spreading the aqua-love!

— It’s actually not your job to be everything to everyone, all the time.
Setting boundaries can be hard - sticking to them even harder (especially for us self-proclaimed perfectionists and people pleasers 🙋🏻♀️)
So here’s your friendly reminder that you are not responsible for other people’s choices, and it’s ok to say no, even if it’s family and even if you feel obligated.
Taking care of yourself is not selfish. It is necessary. You can’t be or give your best if you have nothing left.
Let go of the guilt and give yourself the same grace you so often give to others. Take a break and take care of you 💛
Father’s Day is June 20! Dads are notoriously hard to shop for, so get a head start on giving dad all the FRIYAY-feels by letting him know he’s still cool, no matter what he may be driving these days 🚐 😆
Keep an eye out for even more “dad stuff” being added to the collection soon!
