Hey, guess what? 2024 is going to be a year of good karma and improvement, and I am thrilled to announce that I am finally taking the plunge and starting my very own dog business! Can you believe it? I have always dreamt of working with these adorable creatures, and now I get to do it on my own terms! This is truly a dream come true, and I couldn't be more excited to see where this journey takes me.

Hello 👋🏼 welcome to my page! If you are wondering about services, I will include them in a post soon. Or give me a call, and I can tell you about all the wonderful offers I have.

I am very excited to announce there is only a week left to our water challenge! A lot of you have come a long way from only drinking 3-4 glasses a day now to drinking over 8 glasses.

I am very proud of you all who have participated in this challenge alongside me. You help me stay motivated, which I'm thankful for.

Keep up the great work, all you fantastic people! ♥️

Take a picture that makes you happy other than food, people or pets!

I'll go first, my boxing bag. This has helped me in so many ways.

1. It's a stress reliever.
2. I am inspiring my little humans to be involved.
3. I'm teaching and they are learning self-defence.
4. It's just fun to hit.

Leave a comment or picture of what brings joy to your life! ✌️🏼

A friendly reminder you are an amazing person! If you ever don't feel like yourself understand this is okay. As people, we go through change every day.

As Jim Carrey stated depression is deep-rest to put a hold on playing this character that we show the world.

As a Gemini, I tend to be able to adapt to anyone's personality quite easily. Over time I get overwhelmed with being this slightly different character and then I need rest. My deep-rest is watching a day or 2 of TV or nonstop reading my novel I have going at that time.

So let yourself have deep-rest and not feel guilty for it because it's your body telling you it needs time to breathe!♥️

I have a friend with whom I explore different coffee bistros. Every time we do I always get this warm pleasant feeling in my belly for the new drink/food we will try but also in my heart. Because with friendship there comes to trust in expressing the emotional topics that only a friend can understand! 💗

17/11/2023

I talked to a friend about how many cups a day a person should take in. Some of the apps I checked indicated I needed 15-16 cups a day for myself 😱 And to be honest that's a lot so…

I'm making the challenge to a minimum of 8-10 cups of water a day. Because you get a lot of water from your foods and other items you drink in the day. Hope this is a little less stressful for everyone because I know I am feeling better about this amount! 💁‍♀️

If you are super motivated to drink the amount these apps or online say you need to take by all means go for it! 😁

16/11/2023

My good friend mentioned to me this cute water-tracking app. To those who are doing the challenge or who just want to keep track of their water intake download this and you won't be disappointed 😉

15/11/2023

Hi 👋🏼 y'all do you notice you are horrible at taking in the correct amount of water you need in a day? Well I know I am the worst at this 🙃 and want to make a “challenge”. 😏

What I mean by this challenge is we consume what we need for the day every day for a month! 👍🏼

And the reward will be you will get a unique beverage from me 🤩 It could be a specialty Starbucks drink, a specific wine you adore🍷or something you always wanted to try and now you have a partner to try it with! 💃

I had my 3rd session with my councillor today. They reminded me to be thoughtful not only of others but also of myself.

What I've learned about myself I tend to put other's needs before mine. But I know I need to remind myself it is okay to ask for help and give trust to the people that show up in my life!

As I need to preach I am only human and it is okay to be present in my emotions too ♥️

So here is a reminder let yourself feel those emotions that you have been told to not feel or show. Because it is okay to be human as we all have these kinds of emotions.

If anyone can relate and needs a person to talk to I am here and will always be mindful of your feelings!!!

When your partner asks you to go on a last-minute date why not go with it… 💁‍♀️

I have always wanted to attend concerts but never made the time for them. But now making the time to do more activities that I love to do🫶🏼

One concert down many more to attend too 😏

What is a hobby that you always wanted to try? Leave a comment below and we'll make that dream come true! 🙌🏼

I felt these quotes, I have always been nervous to get out of say “other people's comfort zones” that I would hide the true authentic Destinie. When I say “other people’s comfort zones” I mean what will people think of me if I did this, if I wore this outfit or say this? 🧐 I have been like this for the last 6 years but not anymore. I’m done with people pleasing, caging myself away from this beautiful world. Now I’m more focused on pleasing me showing people what an incredible human being I am💋

Turning 30 has made me dig deep into who I am and express my true self to the world and gosh it feels fricken amazing!!! 🙌🏼 I understand we are all not there yet but I do hope I can help people on their life journey to get there one day! Here’s to keep being different and loving our life journey. 😍

Feel free to messages me, I'm always here to help out!!! 🫶🏼

14/09/2023

OMG, it's finally here!!!🤩

My biggest apologies for not getting this out sooner, life has been one rollercoaster this past week. Now that my life is settling down I think I'm ready to go forward and announce this exciting news. 🙌🏼

I understand that life can be hectic so I thought making this 3 days a week with a long time frame should work in people’s favour!

Let me know your input on what days and times work for you. Plus if video chat works best compared to in-person that works perfectly fine with this group!!! 🫶🏼

Exciting news drop tomorrow, stick around to find out!🙌🏼

This post shows some insight into what this Meet Up is about! 🤗

I will be posting times and dates when I will be hosting it. So come be part of this movement and enjoy some adventures with some incredible people!!! ✌️🏼

Is it just me or do you find your sleep insomnia is worse when it’s a warm night? 🥵

It’s been a bloody curse this summer. Now it's my living nightmare because I try so hard to fall asleep but for some reason, something keeps me awake. Possibly this heat who knows? 😤

What is your take on sleep insomnia? 🤔Is it a curse, a ghost keeping you awake or some alien force mind control Jiggumbob… 🤪

Thought for today…

Who else feels horrible when you haven't had time to clean the house and company is coming over?

For years I've always considered a clean home being the “perfect” home. But we live in our homes compared to show homes that are made to be presented this way. With age, I've realized it's okay to not prioritize cleaning because life gets hectic with more important tasks in our day. Still getting used to this new thought process of people coming over to an unorganized home. But now instead of saying sorry for the mess, I tell people to come on in and thank you for stopping by. Changing the stigmatism a clean home is a perfect home to a lived home is a perfect home! ♥️

Thank you Soulful Convos for setting the foundation in what I am today. Nitty Gritty Convos seems to be a better approach these days with how my lifestyle is!!! Hope you all will enjoy this page as much as I enjoy writing these little paragraphs 😇

Beginning something new or improving an area in your life never has a time frame, everyone goes on their own course of lifestyle!

Come share a story of yours about what you are bringing “new”.
I’ll go first…

With having my second child I have put on a lot of weight. It isn't new to me being a larger version of myself. But I have been taking a step back it feels like loving my body the way I use to be in love with it. Now I’m in the process of relearning how to love this body again. It may take some time as everything does in my life (procrastination is a key function aspect in my life not going to lie). BUT I know I will get there one day loving this body that does a tremendous amount of hard work trying to survive.

Changing the name to my page suits it better plus being 30 come with new experiences and improved me! 😉

I love you for trying today. Even if it's getting out of bed, the simplest actions can be very hard to do.

The first introduction of what Soulful Convos is about

Back in January, when I started school as a Child and Youth Service Worker, I decided to make this page where I can express and uncover my life experiences. With my program, we will be working with families to learn and gain these individuals' trust. But, if I ever want these people to be open with me, I needed to know to be honest myself.

Like everyone else in life, we all have truths that we do not want to reveal due to being ashamed, discriminated against, or just too embarrassed to share. Trust me, I was nervous once I made this page, but I told myself to be brave and embrace my true nature when I did.

In this journey, I have found many unexpected revels I was not ready to learn about myself. However, once I accepted who I am, it has helped me understand myself deeper. One of them was welcoming my depression and learning better ways to cope with it.

Life is a journey that can be scary at times but having a community that understands you and will support you in those moments will help with our confidence in who we are.

Hoping this sheds some light on my page content. Wishing I can inspire people by sharing my novel of life and then empowering them to share their stories!

Setting healthy boundaries is such a hard thing to do but very necessary for the moving on processes. I know this month I had to do a few and it nerly breaks my heart eveytime I do it. I had to tell someone I didn't love them anymore and to stop saying i miss you. I totally cried for 20 minutes after each time but I believe in the long run this will be very beneficial not only for myself but for that person too!

What are some boundaries you had to set up inorder for your meantal health to be better.

There’s moments in the day that feel impossible to overcome and can bring your mood to the lowest of lows. I know that I’ve been there next to my lowest thoughts and we’ve all been there even if we don’t like to admit it. We are only human and being human is to feel every emotion; enjoyment, sadness, fear, anger, and disgust.

What gets me out of that moment is putting a smile on my face. It might just be for a few seconds or a whole 3 minutes laughing with my daughter but those smiles can make a change that gives me back those warm loving feelings. In those moments I’m not only changing my emotions, but also changes the people’s feelings around me. My daughter smiles, a stranger smiles back or even my dog wags it tail because they feel your true intentions.

We all know everyday is not perfect but if we can do a few simple acts of kindness through smiling it makes a big impact with how we feel and how the day turns out.
