LET’S GET REAL: It’s hard EVERYDAY, nothing ma

LET’S GET REAL: It’s hard EVERYDAY, nothing magically feels enjoyable (even after years of hard work), and it basically just comes to the point where you’re more fed up with being fat, than being fit.
*cue motivation*🥴🤷🏼‍♀️ #truth
Not feeling comfortable in your body is REALLY hard. Consistently working out and choosing to eat right, so you can produce change, is also REALLY freaking hard (for me). So, either way it’s going to be a struggle, but only one path can actually produce a positive change.
People get it twisted A LOT, when I talk on my stories about “not feeling comfortable in my body”. It has NOTHING to do with my self-worth, or my overwhelming gratefulness for how proud and thankful I am for a working, healthy, functioning body. I love myself! I’m a kick-ass, hardworking, beautiful, talented, single woman and mother, who has bucketloads of confidence. BUT I ALSO WANT TO FEEL AS GOOD ON THE OUTSIDE AS I DO ON THE INSIDE.
Period. The End.
Learning “self love” and “body acceptance”, overcoming body dysmorphia and food issues… all looks differently for each of us. And the more I looked inward and truly owned all of my own sh*t… the more I realized that my body’s physical appearance was a direct reflection of the relationship I have WITH MYSELF.
I give my whole and best self to everything and everyone in my life… but ironically, have neglected to cultivate a healthy, honest, attentive relationship with my OWN body. *cue the tears* And once I realized that… I was pissed. And pissed-off-ed-ness = the best kind of motivation. 😬
Just like any kind of therapy, that leads to positive, healthy change… it takes work. Lots of it. There are wins, and there are lots of setbacks - so all I’m trying to do this time around, is NOT GIVE UP, transparently share the good and bad, put in the work, and show my body the consistent respect, love and attention it deserves. 💗

PS: I still loath working out/sweating and will ALWAYS prefer cookies and chips over veggies and fruit - no matter what. #sorrynotsorry - 😎✌🏻 mmkay, byeeee!

“Shelley, it’s fine! Bad b*tches cry!” This

“Shelley, it’s fine! Bad b*tches cry!”
This was what my business mentor @susan.m.petersen told me one day, at the peak of my worst meltdown... and honestly? Nothing has ever made me feel more seen.
I’ve cried A LOT while working the past 18+ months on this passion project and dream of mine with @shinecosmetics, to create the BEST DAMN MAKEUP BLENDING SPONGE the beauty industry has ever seen.
Between being a single parent, working on cultivating a healthier body/mind relationship with myself, and Côvid!?!?........ I’ve never wanted to throw in the towel and give up more, in my entire life.
But today? Today was the day I’m so grateful that I didn’t. Nothing about achieving our dreams comes easily. It takes mountains of time, tears, set-backs, patience and perseverance. All things I’d rather not bother with, honestly. 🤷🏼‍♀️ But alas... such is life. Today (on launch day, for the Flawless Finish Complexion Sponge) there are two things I want to remember the most. 1: The endless love and support from Shine, my family, my BFF and my IG tribe here. and 2: The overwhelming feeling of how proud I am of the ME from 5 years ago. The person who thought her life was over after a devastating divorce. The woman who felt so alone, helpless and directionless, scared and constantly worried.
And as self-centered as this may sound, I’m sharing it because I want you to know that NOTHING LASTS FOREVER. The bad, the good... it all comes and goes. All you can do is give thanks. Reflect. Keep pushing. Keep trying. Never give up on what YOU KNOW YOU NEED TO ACCOMPLISH - even if nobody else understands, and everything feels impossible. YOU CAN DO AMAZING THINGS. This isn’t just about a kick-ass sponge. It’s so much more than that.
... But at the same time, are we even at all surprised that a beauty product was the thing that drove me to such a profound realization in my life?... I think not 😉 #makeuplover #shinecosmetics
