Welcome back to my little corner of the internet 💗
Day 3 of my 90-day Noise app experiment was yesterday.
And honestly?
This one feels a little different to write.
Because yesterday was my grandmother's burial service.
And I took the day to be fully present with my family.
No walking.
No weight lifting.
No hustle.
Just:
👉 being there. 💗
And honestly?
The old me would have beaten herself up for that.
But this newer version of me?
She loves herself lol 😭💗
And she is learning — slowly and beautifully — the concept of:
👉 progress over perfection.

💗 On Taking a Rest Day — And Not Beating Myself Up For It
Okay I really want to talk about this for a second.
Because I think it's important.
Yesterday was my grandmother's burial service.
And I made the decision to:
not walk
not lift weights
and just be fully present with my family
And honestly?
The old me would have spiraled about that.
The old me would have thought:
👉 "I broke my streak."
👉 "I failed."
👉 "I should have found a way."
But this newer version of me?
She looked at that rest day and thought:
👉 "You were exactly where you needed to be."
💗 "Progress over perfection. Balance over burnout. Love over self criticism."
Because honestly?
I think real healing includes learning that:
rest is not failure
grief deserves space
your family deserves your presence
and a missed walk does not undo 55 days of showing up
And honestly?
I think that shift in thinking might be one of the most important parts of this whole journey 💗
💪 Starting Fresh on Monday
I've decided to give myself a little grace this week.
I'm allowing myself the space to:
grieve my grandmother's passing
rest my body
be gentle with myself
And then?
👉 Starting fresh on Monday.
Back to walking.
Back to lifting.
Back to the full routine.
But from a place of:
👉 love and self support.
Not punishment.
Not pressure.
Not guilt.
Just:
👉 choosing myself again when I'm ready 💗
📓 The Five Minute Journal
One of the things that has genuinely helped me through grief, hard seasons, and the process of learning to be gentler with myself 💗 Just 5 minutes in the morning to set an intention, find something to be grateful for, and show up for yourself — even on the hard days.

🌱 Root Chakra Reflection: Balance Is Part of Healing Too
This 90-day experiment and my entire rebuilding finances in 2026 journey keeps teaching me the same lesson over and over again:
👉 healing is not linear.
There will be days of momentum.
There will be days of rest.
There will be days of grief.
There will be days where all you can do is show up for your family.
And ALL of those days count.
Because honestly?
I think balance is part of root chakra healing too.
The root chakra is about:
👉 safety.
👉 stability.
👉 groundedness.
And sometimes the most grounded thing you can do is:
👉 put everything down for a day and just be human 💗
🔄 What I'm Focusing on Next
Continue posting consistently on the Noise app 💗
Give myself grace through the rest of this week
Start fresh with walking and weights on Monday
Continue chipping away at that credit card balance
Keep showing up — imperfectly, honestly, and with love 💗
💬 Final Thoughts on Day 3
Day 3 of this 90-day Noise app experiment is proof of something I'm still learning to fully believe:
👉 you can still make progress on your hardest days.
You don't have to be perfect.
You don't have to do it all.
You just have to keep going in whatever way feels right for that day.
And honestly?
I think that's what this whole journey is really about 💗
To my grandma — thank you for everything. 💗🌻
