Enneagram 5, type A B combo... I live for white cheddar popcorn, can always be found under a blanket, and swear I liked being sparkly before anyone else.
ONCE UPON A TIME
On the surface I seemed to have it all; happy marriage with 2 beautiful children...I was blindly living the life that I had committed to and didn't realize that all that I thought was solid and true in actuality was just a charade...a fantasy that proved to be false...the walls that held up the house were made of cards (all jokers)...I had so carefully not asked questions for many years without even realizing my avoidance and when the moment came and the questions were asked the blinders came off and everything had to change...
I realized that in my quest to be the perfect wife, perfect Mom and perfect professional I had entirely forgotten to take any time for myself and that I was far from alone in that...I had a vision of a place that women could have fun, be uninhibited and surrounded by other fabulous females and sought to create exactly what I envisioned and that has evolved to encompass a virtual world of women who feel the same loss and desire to put themselves back onto their own list of priorities...taking time for yourself, finding things you enjoy, spending time with other fabulous females and letting your confidence attract the partner you deserve and desire... if this resonates with you I say welcome!

NOW FOR THE IMPORTANT STUFF
I live for a grand adventure. Seriously, I spend hours watching travel reels planning our next getaway
I can't whistle. Never have been able to. Probably never will. #secretshame
I say my favorite show is Breaking Bad, but it's actually everything HGTV. #embarrassing
I still wear more sparkle than my daughters think I should and use the cry-laugh emoji. Suck it, Gen Z.
