Your Everyday Girl

1. I’m allowed to say “No” to things I don’t want to say “Yes” to.

3. I don’t need to please people if it makes me unhappy.
4. Dating isn’t as scaaaaary as you think.
5. If my opinion may not be taken well, I need to ask myself what’s more important to me – to be authentic or to belong.
6. Your credit score can fluctuate as easily as 1-2-3.
7. Baby steps are needed in everything you do.

9. You don’t have to wait years to protect your peace. You can make changes right away.
10. Grieving over old friends is more normal than you think.
11. It’s okay if you don’t know what you’re doing, no one does.
