โ1 of the biggest tragedies is changing who you are to fit into the world. Feeling like being someone else will help you fit in w/ others, be liked by others. But the truth is, youโll never attract the right kinda people by being someone you are NOT. Be yourself, & the right people for YOU will show up.โ

โSuccessful people know without certainty that whatever they believe, CAN be their reality! Imagine what you can do w/ your life when you believe โI can do anythingโ! Believe it, know it & apply it to something you want! That dream you have, plan for it, work for it & go get it! That change youโve been putting off, believe you can do it & go for it!

โIn life yes, some people will do you wrong, but that doesnโt mean you throw everyone into the same basket! You be kind b/c that's who YOU are! Do good by others, treat others how you want to be treated. Not b/c you want something from them, but cause you know the world is a little better every time someone like you does good no matter how small.โ

Some people go thru the worst kinds of pain but b/c of that pain, they rise out of it w/ a new passion for life & a sense of purpose to help others who are going thru the same pain.

โ
I listened to this every single day & numerous times a day after Liam passed away. I know Iโve mentioned in the past that โFearless Soulโ has been such a great source of motivation & encouragement for me! A friend had told me about the account & I download all their albums off Apple Music. Small speeches 1-10 mins long that get you in the right mindset & improve your perspective & outlook on life. Personally I get easily distracted with my ADHD so the fact that thereโs inspirational background music keeps me engaged & listening but also ENJOYING it!
โ
I think often times we surround ourselves with such negativity from TV shows, movies, the news & just our external environments. Itโs important that youโre refuelling your mind w/ positivity & encouragement b/c that is what will keep you going! Iโve been listening to my fav speeches on repeat again numerous times each day. At 1st the words of course do not feel natural & even can feel silly, but personally Iโve noticed the more I listen the more I naturally recite them myself in casual convos without even realizing it sometimes! It has just become apart of myself, my perspective & mindset now! Iโm constantly refuelling my mind w/ encouragement & motivation & positive perspectives that have greatly taught & rewired my brain to think in a totally different way! When times get tough, I resort back to my playlist. ALWAYS! Sometimes each speech hits differently, sometimes different words are focussed on, sometimes what I take from it changes. Each time that I listen though, I feel the growth, the instant change in mindset, I feel rejuvenated & re-energized to tackle all obstacles life continuously throws!
โ
If it has helped me change my perspective so much, I thought that taking the time to write out the key points from this speech could be a great source to reference back to if youโre a visual person like me!

โ
Itโs so easy to see someone elseโs life & compare ourselves & where we are, vs where they are. YOU are YOU!
โ
Comparing yourself to another isnโt even fair to yourself! Your greatest strength is being YOU cause there isnโt a single person on this planet that is like you!
โ
Too often we forget that being unique works to our advantage! No one walks through life the same way you have, experienced the same things & have the same perspective youโve been given!
โ
Itโs our greatest strength but also a weakness if we focus on what we are not.
โ
Why tear ourselves down when ultimately the ONLY person we should be striving to be better than, working towards improving & comparing ourselves to is our past self!
โ
Our only aim in life should be shinning like the star YOU are & working every day to be the best version of yourself for yourself but for everyone surrounding you as well! It all starts within you & your belief within yourself!
โ
Todayโs a new day, itโs a new week & a chance to flourish!
โ
Step into your OWN shoes & thatโs when youโll shine bright my friends!๐
โ
Leave the past whatever behind you today, focus on 3 things you want to accomplish. No matter how big or small.
โ
Completing 3 tasks youโve set out for yourself will give you a sense of accomplishment to keep moving forward & striving for better. Sometimes overwhelming ourselves w/ too much does the exact opposite & itโs important to set our mindset/ourselves up for success!
โ
The more we can see what weโve accomplished, the more it motivates us to do! Canโt you relate w/ that?!๐
โ
Sometimes I overwhelm myself w/ my โTO DO LISTSโ๐ฐ, we all do! It can cause more anxiety to stare at a huge list rather than further breaking it down into doable daily parts!
โ
3 tasks based on your own energy today & where YOU are at.
Small steps to the finish line!!
โ
(Throw back to summa & some good times! Iโm not sure about you guys, but looking back on my own memories motivates me so much!)
โ
Have a good day & just remember, 1 step at a time! xx

I thought starting school would be such a great step in the right direction but honestly from the 1st wk of school starting w/ me being in the ER, I actually havenโt even basically started my courses yet!
โ
Iโve missed so much in the last 2 wks but honestly w/ my lack of energy Iโve hardly been able to get out of bed! Add working into the mix & the stresses of health & not being able to sleep, my injury pain has peaked again!
โ
This past week was full of x-rays & an MRI, more tests & more waiting for specialist appointments.

Not gonna lie, yah girl has a had a rough start to September & the school year!

I know so many people are struggling w/ the stress of school starting back up, assignments, quizzes, midterms coming up in 2 wks already too! School is going soooo fast & this pace is stressful! Not to mention the stress of life & whatever you have going on yourself too!! I know Iโm not the only one struggling with my health right now at all, so weโre in this together!! Yes Iโm talking to YOU!
โ
For me, taking last yr off & coming back this yr has been an ADJUSTMENT! But I know even without taking a yr off, school is A LOT am I right?!?
โ
Been focusing a lot on sleeping, resting my mind & body & recovering. Focusing on my self care (face masks, light bike rides, watching sunsets, cleaning my space to clear my mind, listening to my Fearless Soul Motivation playlist, tuning out negativity such as TV & outside voices that honestly donโt do me all that well)!

8๏ธโฃ Oh my gosh my weaknesses are 100% holding a grudge! Iโm so stubborn sometimes๐คญ Itโs definitely something I actively work on everyday to better myself & my relationships w/ others!

Doesnโt mean you have to forget when someoneโs wronged you, but it just means that you know your EGO doesnโt need to dictate your life! Not that Iโm great at this AT ALL, but Iโm working on it!
โ
๐ I love photography! Since my brothers & I were little kids, we always have a camera in our hands. Videoing & photographing everything! Now Iโm endlessly grateful b/c we have so many memories to look back on. Memories are priceless am I right?
โ
Iโve been working on my photography business & expanded to film! I love creating! I think photography is so amazing cause you can capture the true beauty in anything & appreciate everything you see with your eyes & through your lens! I also love to be able to capture the true happiness & emotions in a moment. To capture each personโs TRUE beauty! Since I have a bad memory, I think videography is so valuable to be able to truly capture the moment. The sounds, views, emotions as if youโre right there yourself watching it! Iโm launching my IG page for that so Iโll keep yah updated on it!

โ
3๏ธโฃ I study at The University of British Columbia Okanagan (UBCO) in Kelowna, BC! Iโm in my 4th yr of my Human Kinetics Undergrad, majoring in Clinical Exercise Physiology w/ my minor in Psychology! Iโll finish my degree abroad on exchange next yr!
โ
4๏ธโฃ Iโve always been devoted to helping others since I was little. Growing up my family endured a lot of loss & devastation & I had to grow up very quickly. W/ life tumbling down recently, itโs only motivated me more to make a difference! My experiences have defs shaped me into the person I am today & truly have pushed me to help other people blossom into their best selves through all situations!
โ
5๏ธโฃ Growing up I have witnessed so much darkness through supporting boyfriends who were suicidal. Watching them severely struggle w/ their mental health has really opened my eyes to the realness of it early on. It wasnโt until I lost Liam that I truly realized these experiences Iโve had to go through have built me up & strengthened me. I see now my true purpose in life like a burning fire & passion in me, is to be the light for those needing it! My only goal is to use Liamโs legacy to help others covert their greatest pain into their truest strength!

โ
(Also how cool does the ice look?! I was walking on a FROZZEN RIVER! Was so beautiful!!)
โ
โโ
โ
You ever have that feeling like I want to change my habits, actions, routine, my LIFE!!!! Buuuuut Iโll start next month.
โ
Ever say to yourself - โyou can absolutely achieve that, letโs start next month. Oh wait that came up, okay letโs start tomorrow instead. Oh wait shoot someone asked me to hangout! Iโll just start tonight instead?โ
โ
FOR REAL!! I know you ALLL have these moments too!! These moments of procrastination!!๐
โ
I was the worst uni student๐คฃ & all my friends who know me - know Iโm sooo last minute!! I usually pull it off... but... not without a lot of stress!!
โ
Ever also feel like the best time to clean is when you have to work/study.... MEEEE TOOO!!
โ
โโ
โ
I honestly find it sad, when you set yourself a goal & then just let it slide by. When you demand yourself to make a change & you find every excuse when the time comes around.
โ
Iโm too busy.
Iโm too tired/exhausted.
I have no money.
Iโm stressed.
Itโs been a tough day.
โ
Gosh Iโm the best at procrastinating!! Iโve been working on it so much!
โ
Hereโs what made me stop & think.
โ
If you keep going the way youโre going, 5 yrs down the road, what position will you be in? What will your life look like?
โ
Uhhh no thank you! I need a break! I need happiness! I need achievement!!
Anyone else w/ me?
โ
โโ
โ
Iโm such a perfectionist... to a fault!! Itโs something I love about myself but also really negatively affects me too. Also working on that!
โ
I realized if Iโm waiting for the right time - that ainโt coming. There is never a right time b/c thereโs always an excuse you can find!
โ
โจIf you want change, you must manufacture change!!
โ
There will not be a perfect time.
โ
You see something needs to change in your life, so try it now. B/c if youโre having a hard time right now, this moment! & you do nothing about it, next month (30 days from now) youโll be having the same convo with yourself.
โ
Arenโt you worth more than that?
YES YOU ARE!
You are worth sooo much more than that!
โ
โโ
โ
Iโm taking 2021 as MY YEAR TO OWN CHANGE - TO LOVE CHANGE!
โ
Whoโs with me?!๐๐ป

โผ get comfortable with being uncomfortable๐๐ป
โ
Someone important to me last year constantly told me this on the daily. He explained it to me as sometimes we often fear to step out of our comfort zones & people stay stuck. Stuck in their lifestyle, habits, thoughts & beliefs. That the moment you become comfortable being uncomfortable & taking risks, your life will open up & unfold in-front of you, & thatโs when youโll truly be happy.
โ
Itโs so funny because fast forward a year exactly later, I never would have imagined how Iโm living now. My new habits, choices, beliefs in myself, goals etc.
โ
Gosh I feel like I struggle x10 more daily to fight my negativity & depression. Like seriously, some days I just feel like I canโt do it. I canโt do anything!
โ
Itโs taken so much perseverance & determination to pull myself up on these days. To put a smile on my face when I donโt feel like it. Not in an unhealthy way of coping, but realizing if I want change, I must manufacture change within myself. Change doesnโt happen immediately but itโs an accumulation of daily activity.
โ
We all get comfortable in the safety of our routine & habits. The moment you try to adjust anything, things feel off & chaotic. But unless youโre willing to step outside your comfort zone, how will you reach the point of happiness within yourself for overcoming adversity?
โ
Your greatest reward & happiness is on the other side of what you fear most! Gosh Iโve really learnt that! No matter how much I try to change, of course I feel stuck at those big things that Iโm scared to do! But I also know the moment I overcome that fear, will be the moment Iโve truly allowed myself to reach my highest potential!
โ
Thatโs all we really want isnโt it? To be healthy, happy & successful (whatever your definition of success is to you!)
โ
So when you hit times of self doubt. Times of emptiness or are being drowned by your lack of motivation, remember, if you want change, you must make the changes. It will not happen over night. Have the COURAGE to take the risk, to be uncomfortable, & your CONFIDENCE will come afterwards!!๐ค
โ
Itโs a process but never let yourself say, youโre not worth it. YOU ARE WORTH IT!!

โผ I used to/still do struggle with my skin!
โ
I used to think my face was really oily so Iโd use acne/oil controlling products on my face to โdry it outโ so I wouldnโt break out. Anyone else relate?!๐
โ
I honestly never really cared about proper skincare, I was more into sports etc that I just didnโt have extra time to myself when I came home & quickly ate dinner to restart my day when I woke up.
โ
I didnโt learn about skincare until more recently when I was living with so many girlfriends at uni/being around more girls when previously all my life I grew up in a boysโ/tomboy house!
โ
Now I LOOOOOVE a proper skincare routine!! Itโs brought so much confidence in myself having less stressed skin! I learnt that my skin is actually really DRY! & that my skin gets oily to compensate for the dryness & when I used my acne skincare products, I was actually just making it worse!! Now that Iโve learnt sooooo much, I just love helping other people find the right products for themselves too!!
โ
But more importantly, I LOOOOVE a good face mask! I find I have the most problems with my nose, chin & forehead! & have always struggled with finding a proper mask to help me deal with that! Anyone else with me on that?!๐
โ
This is my FAVOURITE mask now! Arbonneโs Rescue & Renew mask! It quite LITERALLY (because you can watch it work!!), dries, opens up your pores & then pulls out the oil/impurities! You can literally see it working with your own eyes!!!
โ
This has CHANGED my skincare routine!! Iโve never been so happy with a product & I know soooo many friends of mine loooove it too! Cause you SEE it actually working!
โ
Flipping love this product so much! & so grateful for it because it did take me a long time to find something I really like!!

Anyone else have a fav product they use? Or have skin problems that I can help you out with? Cause THIS is my fav part of my job - helping people feel more happy in their own skin!!
