Your Life. Your Story. Your Portrait.
Does your busy lifestyle leave you feeling like you and your significant other need to figure out how to find each other again? I find this to be especially true when you’ve been together for a long while. There’s one particular way I find I can reconnect with my wife. If you feel like you can no longer see your husband, wife, boyfriend, or girlfriend then this is for you!
Doesn’t everyone love a perfectly designed outdoor space? It can serve as an escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The beauty is that you have control over how it makes you feel, which is the most important part!
If you’re a very caring person, you probably also struggle with taking care of yourself first. You’re the first to come to someone’s aid; to offer your shoulder; to listen to them; or to lend them a hand. This is all about being healthy and taking care of yourself. Doing this does not make you selfish and I’ll use an airplane ride to prove it!
If anyone has ever told you to “take a hike” they probably didn’t mean it in the way I do. Walking in nature is one of the main ways that I rejuvenate my creativity and help relieve stress. You don’t have to hike up a mountain to feel the effects and you don’t even have to wander into a forest to get back to nature! Here’s how you can do it too:
I recently watched a great video by Vox on the science of exercising and weight loss. Their findings aren’t all that revealing (at least to me), but they do present the information in a way that really hits home.

This book has given me a new take on life and is one of the reasons I’m creating beautiful artwork for regular, real women. I’ll outline the three steps (you can read them in more detail once you have the book) and tell you how they’ve positively impacted my life.
There’s a wonderful video I found on YouTube by photographer, Gina Held, and it shows what a simple (beautiful) compliment can do. We all know the immense impact words can have on us. We learn to communicate through speech before we ever get to writing or even gestures and it’s an incredibly powerful tool. But with any tool, it can be used the right and wrong way. So watch the video and continue on to find out the right way to give a beautiful compliment!

If you’re like most people, you’ve contemplated how you’re looked at. This thought quickly snowballs into thinking about your imperfections; all of the negative thoughts that would go through their mind. You probably don’t think of the negative things. I’d like to share why you shouldn’t worry about what people think because the ones that matter in your life aren’t seeing what you see (or think you see).
