It took me years to untie my worthiness from the opinion of others and in this internet age, it's easy to get caught up in comments whether they be positive or negative.
This world can be tough and while it's nice to hear/read words of encouragement, sometimes we may need to encourage ourselves as David did.
You, friend, are worthy because God says you are. Period. 🦋
What a pleasant surprise!
The ease of preparing the meal coupled with great flavor, I must say this first me was really good. I'll do a full review once I get a few meals under my belt.
As I continue on my Fit, Fine, and Fabulous by 50 journey, I'm looking for ways to up the ante. Let's face it, life is life'n and it can be hard to make time to work out consistently, drink water, mind your business, and eat right. Whew. I've learned that making small tweaks make a big impact.
I'm using Factor as one of those small tweaks. By taking the guess work out of figuring out what's for lunch/dinner, I can focus on other things. Decision fatigue is real and the fewer decisions I must make, the better.
What small tweaks have you made that makes life a little easier for you?
What small tweaks can you make that will help improve your physical, mental, spiritual, and/or financial health?

My first trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica, was everything I needed and more—peaceful, relaxing, and completely restoring.
From the breathtaking sunsets to the beautiful people, it was a dream come true. There’s something magical about experiencing a ‘first’ that stays with you forever.
On this trip I capped off a year of swim lessons by jumping off a boat into 30 ft of water to snorkle. GAH!!!
This was my first time swimming on my own and my first time snorkeling. I can't fully describe how beautiful this experience was for me. It was like being on another planet.
There were so many firsts that happened on this trip.
🦋 First beef patty. (I know...I know)
🦋 First aromatherapy massage with lymphatic draining. (LISTEN!!! This was the best massage I have EVER had!)
🦋 First international trip with a friend. (More of these, please).
This trip reminded me that there are so many things I have yet to experience which means there is so much more life to live. I don't know about you, but I want more firsts. This next phase of my life is about to be lit!

Not me being on track to exceed my weight goal for 2024. I'm about to hit 50lb loss. Glory!!!

Edit: The earrings are sold out.
The moment my love for butterflies and statement pieces collide.
@shopkhoi has quickly become one of my favorite accessory brands. @hayet.rida is out here doing the Lord's work with beautiful pieces like Eydi (featured in the video) and so many conversation starters.
As an introvert, I wear beautiful pieces like Eydi to networking events, parties, or any place where I have to be social. Statement pieces always attract others and they usually ask about the piece or give a compliment. Boom...conversation starts. Fellow introverts get it. 😊
Hayet, THANK YOU for sharing your art with the world and giving us Introvert girlies show stoppers. 💙🦋

When my daughter passed away, I went into a travel agency and said "I need to get out of here". By the look on the agent's face, I knew she thought I was running from someone. 😂 Actually, I was. I was running from grief.
I took my first solo trip in May of 2006, shortly after laying my daughter to rest. I visited Hawaii for the first time and that visit sparked my love for travel.
For me, traveling is more than just visiting new places but experiencing different cultures and discovering the beauty in every corner. Every journey opens my heart and mind a little more.
Whether visiting different states or countries around the world, traveling is a gift I am forever grateful to receive.
🗣What are your favorite places to travel?
