whenever an irl friend mentioned that they saw ✨this✨ space, i’d want you to hideeee… but i’m trying to take a note from my childhood self and embrace being seen. 🫂 

letting yourself be seen can be terrifying because of potential judgement, but it is also so so rewarding! this space is an example of it; i’ve made so many life long friends and grew into myself beyond imagination. and it was only possible because i allowed myself to be subject to embarrassment that i found connection. :”)

so let this be your sign to put yourself out there and be seen 🙂‍↕️🌷✨💞

a day in the life through my childhood lens 🌷 what would my childhood self do? probably stay in bed, wear the fun outfit, and go outside. but realistically, go to school and ballet. 🫢 this was a fun little exercise and i hope it inspires to you think what your childhood self would do in your adult shoes!
