I denied myself the pleasure of my work because it’s taboo to do, let alone ENJOY, this work. however, come november ‘18, I decided to go all in because who cares if I loved my job?! graduation, moving across the country two times, and leaving an abusive partner set me back about a year, but here we are. we’re doing it. hello world! it took me a while to really figure everything out. my intention. my style. my own boundaries. my values. and although I still have so much to learn, I'm happier today than I was during this photoset. so! happy anniversary friends. here’s to two years of self-acceptance! thanks for being here with me.
