I think we need to be taught how to appreciate ourselves and love ourselves more. Women specifically are conditioned at a young age to please and take care of others while putting themselves second. We've also been taught (women and men) that our worth is put on external factors like how much money you make or how many followers you have. Obviously not everyone thinks these things determine their worth, but sometimes even these superficial things have a deeper affect on us the more they build up. 

I thought I would be more worthy of a person by getting two degrees. I thought my worth would go up when I would start getting better job offers because of my degrees. That did not happen. I didn't get more job offers and my sense of self worth was steadily declining. 

I wish I learned from a young age how to not internalize so much and give myself more grace before beating myself up first. We deserve to give ourselves more chances and we deserve to feel like we are worthy despite what is in our pockets or what we wear and who we know. 

​Enjoy me looking cute.

    These photos are a form of expression and recovery. Photos of the things I like, cherish, struggle with, find funny, find captivating, etc. I invite you to take a look at how I see stories being told.
