It’s so funny to think about how I viewed 30-year-olds at 21 years old.
Wow, your past your prime. I’m living my best life now
Little did I know what God had in store for me.
Since then I’ve found my prince charming who loves me despite my crazy, I have 2 beautiful little boys who will take after their amazing father, I got into and through a competitive PA Program, I have a career I love, I’m confident in the skin I’m in, I don’t take no for an answer and I’m this close to learning how to perfect my brows. And I’m just getting started. Life isn’t just Hella Good; I’m convinced life begins at 30.
Life Begins at 30!
Every trial and tribulation was meant for my good. All of the blood, sweat, and tears brought me to this point. Thank you for joining me on this beautiful journey. Now let’s get to the fun part:
