Make time for your wellness…
A little update! In 2018 I went to school to become an
esthetician. I graduated June of 2019.
I planned to take my state board test in in February
of 2020 but the pandemic hit 😞. State board
opened back up around June of 2020 and I took my
test and of course I passed! I then applied for my
LLC.
Through the pandemic I started buying supplies for
my business. I started planning where I would
perform my services. My initial plan was to do
mobile, but that comes with a whole lot of extra
things! In the mean time in between time I had been
applying to literally every franchised spa in Charlotte
but none would hire me. 😞 I knew my potential and
my talent and how much I wanted to give people a
memorable, relaxing experience. I invested in two
black women who were supposed to be opening up
a salon/spa in September of 2020. It never
happened. I was so discouraged! Like I really wanted
to practice my craft! I started working a regular job
just to stay afloat. I was looking for other 9-5’s while
working for a warehouse. I was not happy and really
losing sight of my dream. I realized this and began
searching again. I made a post in the “Charlotte
Black Business” group on fb. Many people
responded with openings and opportunities!
I responded to a lot of them, but there was one place
that really stood out and had everything I needed.
I FINALLY secured a place to do what I love!
Moral of the story, NEVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF.
If you are in the Charlotte, NC area, come visit me for
an amazing self care experience! You will love it 🥰

I was toxic to some, I was a blessing to others. Others I healed, others I hurt. I'm willing to admit that I wasn't always right.
Reblogging cause I haven’t see a dark skinned couple on my TL in forever
I declare that I choose to see beauty in my life, I declare that I live in beauty and breathe in beauty. I am beautiful and beauty and luxury recognizes me as one of its own.

Wow tumblr! It’s been so long since I’ve been here...so many things have changed in my life! For starters, I’m engaged! I’m now 27 (think I left tumblr around 23/24). I have 2 kids and working on a 3rd. I’m a licensed esthetician and I own my own business! I am going to slowly but surely start posting little updates from the years I haven’t been on here. Yallllll I’m so excited to be back 🤗
