#walmartpartner Ok honestly, this one is on me for making assumptions because one of my friends has been trying to get me to do this all year and I just didn’t know if it would work for my content.

Follow + Comment BUTTERFLY and I’ll send you my guide on the 11 habits that have turned my 30s into the best decade yet as a late bloomer whose 30s didn’t look like the original plan.

OK BUT WHAT IF YOU SET YOURSELF UP FOR REJECTION?

This is your tiny experiment number one

Last week I did an experiment of setting myself up for rejection for 3 days. It solidified what we already know - “you don’t know if you don’t ask”

The thing is, getting a no stings and a lot of times we have a sense of when we’re going to get a no anyway so it’s easy to say “I’ll just put my energy somewhere else so it’s not a waste of time”

The more comfortable we can get with getting a no, the more comfortable we get asking and the more opportunities and doors open up.

Let me know if you want to know what happened on day 2 and where you have a feeling opening yourself up to rejection could lead you to a yes that you might be closing yourself off from.

Glow up, 30s glow up, personal growth, feeling behind, feeling stuck, how to deal with rejection,

OK, BUT WHAT IF YOU’RE GETTING UNSTUCK before the end of the year. We just have to lock in and we’re starting this week with these 5 things to jump start your 30s glow up before January 1st.

The hardest thing about feeling stuck is feeling like the only thing that will get you unstuck is something grand, but I believe that it’s small daily things that you can do that actually get that feeling of stickiness or behind out of your system.

If you need ideas for your future you 5 comment FUTURE you and I’ll send you a list of suggestions and jumping off points for you to create your own and if you need more ideas just drop it in the comments and I’ll help you brainstorm.

Feeling stuck, feeling behind in your 30s, getting unstuck, getting out of a rut, self improvement in your 30s

Long story short I gave myself three days of deliberately setting myself up for rejection.

I broke down everything that happened on days 1-3 in my YouTube video - comment WATCH if you need the link

Or let me know if you want a part two here on Instagram

This is your reminder that luck starts with having doors open and you can only open doors if you know that rejection is going to come with it

This is your reminder that you never feel great after doomscrolling on the couch for over an hour anyway - and there’s something about realizing that you’re both just sitting there staring at your phones that makes you think “what are we doing?”

Casual chic at 5'1" when it's 68 degrees in DC I'm 5'1" for reference. Wearing XS in the gap 100% cotton sweater and a 0 in the skirt. I know it being low rise sounds intimidating in your 30s but it’s not as low as you think! This is my uniform for in-between weather. Warm enough for a union market coffee walk. Dress it down: swap the Chanel slingback for sneakers. Dress it up: throw on some heeled slinback sandals. Tagged similar options under $100 too. Sizing question? Message me on LTK and I'll tell you what I'd order.

@poudreuxbody @colleenrothschild I’m telling yall! I am low maintenance when it comes to beauty products so when something works I’m sticking to it for like a decade

For the last 6 years I’ve worn hill house almost every other day (literally have a clothing rack outside my closet that’s just hill house)

I’ve never once received gifting or a partnership from. I COULD shop elsewhere from brands who are more likely to partner with me, but idk what magic @nelliediamond put in her standards for how clothes should fit I just can’t find anywhere else that fits my 5’1” self as well!

Plus now I just outed myself that they’re going to get free marketing from me for the foreseeable future 😂

ok but what if you’ve been missing your new favorite step

Lesson One: The Everything Shower.
Prerequisites: none.

Required Materials:
Poudreux Dry Brush + Colleen Rothschild Beauty The Ritual body cream
(Comment SHOWER and I’ll DM you both)

I owned a dry brush ten years ago in my goopy woo woo era. Threw it out during a move and never replaced it, not because I decided it wasn’t working, but because it was out of sight and therefore, to my type B brain, it did not exist.

So the first assignment is simple. Buy the version that is pretty enough to leave on the counter. This one is easy to hold, it’s refillable so you pop the head out every six months instead of replacing the whole thing, and it looks like something you’d choose to display.

PRO TIP: Dry brushing after an internationals flight will make you feel SO good

What’s currently sitting under your sink that you’ve totally forgotten about until now?

Class dismissed. Lesson two drops soon.

Saving you the itinerary.

Here’s everything we did on a long weekend in the Hudson Valley and the Catskills - autocamp was such a beautiful wedding venue our friends chose and so much fun to stay in the airstreams all close by all the guest.

Also no roadtrip is complete without my needlepoint from @shopfriendofmine

Where we stayed AutoCamp Catskills. If you’ve never stayed at one, this might be my favorite venue a friend has ever picked for a wedding.

Lunch @hudsontaco . I was on lunch duty and wanted somewhere with fresh air, and we got the perfect table for the view. You MUST order the General Tso’s Chicken Tacos

Deja Brew. I got the sandwich of my dreams here I have not stopped craving it and also the lemon blueberry cookie was incredible. A local recommended this to us and I wish I could tell them how happy I was with this suggestion

Woodstock Oriol 9 for brunch and then walk over to the flea market. I am currently regretting not getting one of the fur coats I tried on.

Kaaterskills Falls
It was SO crowded on a Saturday morning but was glad to get some steps in. We went to Deja Brew after.

I dont know if this is a hot take, but whenever we go to New York or Connecticut I will take the road trip over the train or the flight every single time.

Save this for your New York road trip and tell me what I missed up there, because we’re already planning to go back.
