Self-Care Sunday: Love Yourself
This Sunday, I wanted to create a simple but meaningful post to promote self-care this week. The message is clear and important; love yourself.

My 2020 Word
I’ve seen several posts on Instagram or Twitter asking, “what is your one word for 2020?” I believe this has now taken place of your once dedicated resolutions.
