Let's do something fun. I've posted topics recently on my many dresses (like here and here), and I feel like it's time for a break. So I'm going to share the 10 ways I'm not a southern lady. I came up with this fun topic one day as I scrolled through IG (hey! follow me yo!) So what did I noticed? I saw a trendy feed of lavish southern ladies (specifically southern state ladies, who are self-proclaimed southern) sharing specific traits. Now I mean absolute no harm or will-ill in …

4 Ways to Empower Bullying Victims
Last month an 8th grade boy committed suicide in our schools. A few years ago, a college teen girl hanged herself in my neighborhood. We all asked the same question, why?

Stop Telling Women We’re Not Equal
First of all, I want to say every topic I discuss comes from God. He inspires me. I don't know if it's for me or for someone else but when I feel the stir I know it's time.

This little girl discusses why she's not a feminist and why women are second to men, and she uses …
My Advice to Younger Folks
So recently I created a post offering tadbits of life advice and wisdom here. Seeing the positive reaction from that post inspired me to write another but for younger folks. I get I'm still a kid myself (yes 26 is still young!). I barely have it together and hardly know a thing, let alone give life advice to young people. So why am I creating a post offering advice to young people when I'm in no position? Because after living in a small town for some time and having some life experience, …
Life, Man
Hey gang! So originally I planned to release a serious, long post over life advice as well as a short story, but life happened. It's funny how you articulate every detail of your schedule only for life to laugh in your face. Well for a little update, I just returned from an overnight trip to St. Louis (Dillon Francis was awesome!) only to jump on the road again to Austin. Gosh, I didn't realize the mental exhaustion I'd experience. Don't get me wrong, I love it! I love to travel, …
