My birthday was on Monday and I've been meaning to make this post since then. I don't know about you, but I get very emotional on my birthday. 🥲 Especially after losing my dad. 💔 Celebrating one more year being alive feels more meaningful. I remember my dad being calm and hopeful that I will figure things out after finding myself unemployed once again in 2020, around the same time he passed away. I know he's proud of me for how far I've come in my career as a business owner and a single mom. But it makes me sad that he's not here… physically here. On my birthday, I sat down to reflect on the things I've learned so far. I wrote them for the younger version of myself… #23 rings so true as I feel behind on posting this for you. 🙈 38 Pieces of Advice To My Younger Self

I had the best weekend ever because my twin sister was in town. Did you know I’m a twin? She lives in El Paso, where we went to college. We planned this weekend to have a little pre-birthday celebration (a week early). 👯♀️🎉 November is my favorite! Not only is it my birthday month; it’s also Thanksgiving, which has now become one of my favorite holidays. Growing up in Mexico, we didn’t celebrate this holiday. So I see it and celebrate it more as a reminder to stop and reflect on the things and people I’m grateful for. 🥰 And of course, that includes YOU! Maybe it’s cheesy, but without the relationships that I’ve made during my journey as an entrepreneur, I know my life would feel a lot different… and not in a good way. 😅 To show my gratitude, I’m working on a little special something just for you! 👀 Watch for a new blog post next week with your free goodie! 🙌🏼 In the meantime, I want to share something I've been working on… 📢 Calling all Creatives 📢 |
