✨ The Wellness Edit | Episode 2 ✨
Y’all know I’ve been focused on building a wellness routine that supports my goals from every angle—nutrition, supplements, strength training, cardio, recovery, and consistency.
One area that’s been especially stubborn for me? My midsection.
So for Episode 2 of The Wellness Edit, I decided to try Emsculpt NEO on my abs for the very first time. I’ve heard so many people talk about it, and I wanted to see for myself what the experience was like.
To be clear, this isn’t replacing my workouts or healthy habits. I’m looking at it as an additional tool that could potentially support the work I’m already putting in at the gym and in the kitchen.
I’m taking y’all along for the journey, so consider this the before. 👀
Have you tried Emsculpt NEO? Drop your experience below because I want all the tea. ✨

🚨 New series alert: BALL TIL YOU FALL 🚨

Welcome to the series where the budget is fake, but the wishlist is VERY real. 💸✨

Every episode, I’m sharing 5 items I’d buy immediately if my bank account had no limits. Fashion, accessories, home finds, beauty obsessions... if it’s living rent-free in my head, it’s making the list.

Today’s lineup is the first of many, and honestly... I’m already mentally unboxing everything.

Which item are you buying first? 👀👇

At some point, I realized scaling as a creator wasn’t just about posting more content or chasing bigger numbers anymore.
It became about building something that could actually grow with me long term.
What started as fashion content slowly expanded into lifestyle, wellness, shopping resources, partnerships, and bigger business ideas and I needed a platform that could support all of it now and in the future.
That’s been one of the biggest mindset shifts for me lately:
building systems, infrastructure, and a foundation for where I want my brand to go next.
@wordpressdotcom has helped me create a space that evolves alongside my brand instead of feeling limited by it. From long-form storytelling to resources, partnerships, and future projects I’m still building toward… having a platform designed for long-term growth has completely changed how I think about content and business.
Still growing.
Still building.
Still evolving.

Starting Accutane... again. ✨
Back in 2016, before I moved to LA, I completed my first round of Accutane and saw incredible results. Fast forward to today, and my skin has been going through it. What started as hormonal breakouts gradually turned into painful cystic acne, and after trying to manage it on my own, I decided it was time to seek professional help.
I’ve officially started a second Accutane journey with @honeydew.care and I’ll be sharing the process along the way. My goal is to be transparent about what this experience looks like as an adult navigating acne, confidence, skincare, and everything in between.
This journey won’t be perfect, but neither is skin and that’s okay.
If you’ve done Accutane before, I’d love to hear your experience and any tips you have for managing dryness, side effects, and the overall process. 💚

SPANX has officially entered the group chat. 👏🏾✨
I picked up a few pieces and had to do a try-on because the fit is fittingggg.
From the cobalt blue beach set that’s giving luxury vacation energy to the black skort and zip jacket combo that will absolutely be joining me on morning walks, errands, and airport runs... every piece understood the assignment.
The sports bra? Supportive.
The skort? Flattering.
The beach set? Already packed in my mind. 💙

Which look are you choosing: Team Vacation or Team Athleisure? 👀
