Things have been flipped upside down lately.
I’m practicing health and safety first – meaning I’m pretty much stuck at home – now I really miss all the new workouts I got to try last month! Here’s the full review of last month’s barre/yoga class…
To me, what she’s asking is pretty simple– how can I be vulnerable and still protect myself?
This is such a good question, it’s something I think about (and work on) all the time.
I understand that it may be tempting to use vulnerability to connect with people online. You can absolutely be vulnerable, but don’t have to “spill all your tea” if you don’t want to.
Here is a rule I follow when it comes to vulnerability in my work.
Happy Friday, dolls! Here’s what I did this week:
🍳 Sunday Brunch: @biyoubk feels like you’re sitting in someone’s New Orleans kitchen getting a home cooked meal. There’s only one hard working chef, so be prepared to have a relaxing, leisurely meal
I always have Prosecco chilled in my fridge– this way I’m always prepared to celebrate! Lately, I’ve been sipping on Prosecco from Cupcake Vineyards. It feels good to have a friend over for dinner and toast to her accomplishments (or mine!). Thankfully with the dope group of women I have in my circle, celebrations happen often at my apartment!
As co-founder of theCURVYcon, my dreams are coming true, which also means that my work life is a lot more demanding than it used to be. This is a beautiful thing, but I don’t get to spend as much time just hanging out as I used to. I’m noticing that people in my life are much more appreciative of time spent together, than they are a perfect meal made from scratch. So, I do the best I can and give myself grace so that I “don’t make perfect the enemy of good” -Voltaire
Here’s How to Throw a BBQ in 1 hour or less:
A few months ago, I moved into my dream apartment here in New York City. This apartment is the first time I’ve rented a space completely on my own with no help from my parents. I’m growing up, yall!
At first when I moved in, I was really intimidated by the idea of interior decorating. I was convinced that I didn’t have the talent for home decor. I reached out to a bunch of decorators to help me, but no one I contacted was the right fit.
I’m learning in life, that if something isn’t coming together smoothly, it means I need to take a pause and revisit my approach.
I sat in a semi-furnished apartment for MONTHS and then it finally hit me… maybe I should be the one to decorate my space! I know what I like and more importantly, I know how I want my home to feel.
As a Cancerian (June 26th), my living space is like my crab shell. I want to feel safe and cozy! So, maybe my new apartment would feel most like home if I had a hand in decorating it myself.
I love having a boyfriend.
When I don’t have a boyfriend, it’s not the end of the world… until I need certain things done.
Over the past two and a half years, I’ve lost weight. I’ve gone from the biggest I’ve ever been (size 28) to the smallest I’ve ever been (size 18).
We are just days away from Christmas! As I celebrate the holidays for the first time in my new apartment, I am challenging myself to create an epic Christmas decor moment using items from JCPenney! Click to find out how I did, and details on a Christmas giveaway I’m holding.
a lot of you are sending me private messages asking me the same question: CeCe, how are you supporting yourself as a full time blogger? Today I’m answering that question in detail.
