Real talk from me to you 🖤
I’m not saying this from a pedestal. I’m saying it because I’ve been that girl staring at the ceiling at 2AM, completely overwhelmed, talking about my dreams more than I was moving on them. I’ve sat in my car, in my kitchen, in my studio, saying “when things calm down… when I have more time… when I feel ready.”
But here’s what I learned the hard way: the time never magically opened up. I had to grab it back in tiny intentional pieces. Five minutes to send the email. Five minutes to finish the mockup.
Five minutes to write the idea on paper instead of letting it die in my head. Those little moments are what built Death By Lipstick, the studio, the projects, the life I’m living now. Not perfection. Not confidence. Just small, honest decisions stacked up.
So when I tell you:
YOU DON’T NEED MORE TIME.
YOU NEED MORE INTENTION.
…it’s because I remember exactly what it felt like to feel stuck, behind, and doubting myself. You’re not behind. You’re just one focused decision away from momentum.
Tonight or tomorrow, give yourself five intentional minutes toward the thing that’s been tugging at you. Then come back and tell me what you did so we can clap for it together. No shame, just growth. 💋
