STEPPING OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE - FINAL
❤️
OK just about at the finish line - jewellery and heels still to go. I look quietly confident, but inside my brain was having a full-on argument:
One side was saying, “Nope, can’t do this,” while the other was shouting, “Suck it up, sunshine, and get on with it!”
What should’ve been five minutes out the door turned into 30 minutes of full-blown procrastination.
But I was determined to do what I set out to do—go out and have a great time.
And in the end, I did. 🥂
A huge thank you to my beautiful friends who rode the emotional rollercoaster with me in the days leading up to the event.
And a special shoutout to Dana from Beautiful Solutions —what an angel! She made the whole experience of getting my makeup done so easy and comfortable, just by being herself.
Yes, there were tears (right at the end, naturally... sorry Dana!)—but they were happy tears. She absolutely nailed the look with barely any input from me.
These feelings don’t just pop up for big functions.
Like so many others, sometimes even leaving the house or going to the shops can feel overwhelming.
But on the good days? You feel friggin’ amazing.
And on the not-so-good days? That’s okay too. Just remember to give yourself a little extra love.
Because no matter where you're at, you are amazing.
And just showing up—even when it’s uncomfortable—is a kind of magic too. ✨
