I’m not as _____ as ___ Look at _____ she’s so _____ I’m such a _______ I’ll never ________ It’s SO easy to look at everyone’s social media highlight reel and keep score. And where does it leave you? Feeling deflated and defeated. We need to Konmari THAT feeling!!! I’ve been making a conscious effort to ‘up my game’ here on social media, and it’s meant I’ve spent a lot more time than usual looking at pictures of myself, and of my life. Weighing the ‘who wants to see another pic of my face?’ Against the way it always makes me smile when one of YOUR faces pops up when I’m scrolling. The way the corners of my eyes crinkle with a ’smize’ when I see you with your kids, or looking fab getting ready to go out on the town, or doing your important work that lights you up from the inside.

It’s time to tidy up the practice of comparing ourselves with other women, other entrepreneurs, other Mamas and Wives. It’s time to appreciate OUR gifts and talents just was much as we admire others. ⠀ ⠀ We need to show up. We need to shine on.
