5 Things That Have Helped Me Love Myself

Big Thanks Posted From https://fitbottomedgirls.com/2018/09/5-things-that-have-helped-me-love-myself/

Now that I have been consistent with my self-care practice for 70-plus days, I understand that accepting who I am and what I look like was vital to learning how to love myself. Neither self-acceptance nor self-love is easy when we wear so many hats at once — mother, wife, daughter, friend, and the list goes on.

What’s Inspiring You?

Big Thanks Posted From https://fitbottomedgirls.com/2018/09/whats-inspiring-you/

A few weeks ago I was at the gym, hanging out with my daughter after the workout, when a fellow member and friend came up and asked me a question that really gave me pause. What’s inspiring you these days? he asked. In the moment, I was dumbfounded. No one had ever asked me that before — and I’d never thought to ask it of anyone else, either. And it was a GREAT question. I mean, it’s a deep and interesting thing to ask. It gets into who someone is, what they’re motivated by, and what they’re working towards. It’s kinda…
