FEARLESS plus a tribal invite to the Holy Mother-preneur Meet & Greet

I’ve been super emotional and on the verge of a panic attach the past 8 days! Why? Because I just purchased FIVE HUNDRED cookbooks!!!!! I’m doing it y’all! It wasn’t an easy purchase as this is a very big debt to take on as a startup business. I have so many folks that believe in me and this brand so I’m choosing to be FEARLESS!! I’ve prayed over it and I have many folks in my corner praying for me too! I’m so grateful to anyone that has said a little prayer for me. They give me peace and excitement for what is to come!

Recently I started up a Facebook group for ALL Holy Mother-preneur’s to join! Here is the link. We currently have another contest going on featuring our HMP of the Week, the executive director of Beautycounter, Ashley Flores! The giveaway is valued at over $110.00!!! You can enter over on the FB Group or on Instagram too!

Earlier this year, I had this yearning to start a TRIBE! However, I was still very depressed after having Rocco (our third baby). Postpartum depression just took over my entire life but God was still there working away at me and preparing me for this new venture!! That’s when Holy Mother-preneur came to life!!

And let me tell you, this isn’t just “ANOTHER” group!

Why in the world did I start this group?! Well, first off, let’s call us a TRIBE instead! I needed it! After speaking with other ladies, I found that they needed this too! We need our TRIBE!! Have you ever heard the saying the people you spend the most time with are who you become?! IT’S SO TRUE!! 

I want to be successful! I want that for my tribe too!! Let’s do this together! 

Our first “tribal” meeting will be held on Friday, October 12th from 7:30am - 9:00am. I picked this time because it’s right after school drop off and I thought “What better way to head into the weekend with a bunch of new friends and new ideas to lead us all into a new week! There will be coffee and quiches. The topic will be  - ALL over the place! Let’s just get to know one another! I would love to hear what you want to learn more about so I can start planning our next tribal meeting. Children are welcome! I will set up a play area for them at our office. For future meetings I would like to keep them child free if possible so we can all focus. lol

RSVP here! I would love to meet you and hear more about you!

With the holiday selling season just around the corner, on Friday, November 2nd at 7:30am, I will be teaching a class on photographing products for your business for social media and we will discuss hashtag usage too! I’ve already opened up seats for this class so be sure to RSVP here!

I am so pumped and I hope you are too! See y’all soon!

Milk Bath Session | 38 weeks

We are counting down the days y'all!!! Every day I wake up and I am like, "Will this be the day???" I have got to stop! lol I haven't been feeling well at all and that has made this last leg of pregnancy so hard. I have been in pain for the past two and a half weeks with my back and hips feeling a dull muscle ache. When Rocco moves around it intensifies these pains. . .he moves A LOT! Two nights ago I didn't sleep well because he decided to have a dance party! It was so painful. That next morning I scheduled an appointment with my chiropractor and let me tell you! She worked some serious magic!! I feel SO incredible and have decided to walk around like a granny trying to keep this adjustment in place. lol This Thursday will be my 39 week check up and we will also have another ultrasound done to determine just how much this baby boy is weighing in at. At my last ultrasound, my tech told me he was on track to weigh around ten pounds at birth. Eek! He has consistently measured two weeks ahead at every check up. Praying things will progress in God's time, I will gain some patience and this baby boy will be healthy!

Also, I am bored! I keep getting caught up with house chores and then the boredom starts to set in. Plus, with no weddings or engagement sessions currently on my schedule, work has basically come to a halt. Which was the plan so I can focus on my family and try to relax while we wait on our baby boy to arrive. However, my brain hasn't caught on to this idea yet! My brain is re-branding my photography business, checking out ideas for new website designs and layouts and I am taking an online photography class that is geared towards business. I just can't stop!!! lol I love my photography business and the amazing clients I get to meet. I love that it allows me to be creative and I have SO much fun with my clients during our sessions. Seeing my clients in front of my camera during an engagement session, giggling and loving on each other AND already getting excited about their wedding day photography. . .it keeps me going and keeps me passionate!

So, for now I am trying really hard to stay positive and think happy thoughts. I saw these gorgeous pink peonies at the grocery store and thought they would help brighten my day. Which they do every time I see them! :) They are my faves. I love how fragrant and beautiful they are. They made the perfect prop for my milk bath maternity session too! I had Trey behind my camera rocking out his skills. Thank you for taking these for me babe.
