Lifestyle + Personal Growth + Self Care + Relationships
After coming up with my theme for 2020 as being the Year of Discipline, I started thinking about what I wanted my goals to be that I have not been able to achieve because of the lack of discipline. I looked through my list of goals that I wrote throughout 2019 and as a looked…
I’m deeming 2020 the Year of Discipline. This will be incorporated into every aspect of my life – from work, to my personal goals, and to my relationships.
When it comes to my daily night routine, what I do every night changes. But, one thing I always make sure I do every night is prep for the day ahead.
It’s been 2 weeks since I wrote a blog post. It’s been a week and a half since I’ve woken up at 5:45am, since I’ve gone to the gym, and since I’ve written in my planner. How have I fallen out of my routine?
The most interesting thing I’ve ever done in my life was have a year long Youtube career. I never thought I would put myself out there online, in a video, on one of the biggest social media platforms in the world. It was a period of time where I felt my most creative, but it was also challenging and a big investment.

Raise your hand if you want to be a morning person? (I’m raising my hand, you just can’t see me). The interest in being a morning person comes from that desire of wanting to be more successful, getting more done in a day and/or getting alone time. The thought of being up before everyone else sounds exhausting, but there is something attractive about it that made me look into how I can become a morning person.
I’m sure I’m part of the 0.01% of women who go “what day is Valentine’s Day again?” It’s amazing to me how much I’ve grown to care less about this “holiday”, this one day where you and your significant other express your love so deeply… but what about all the other days? It’s just another regular day!
One of the most important things I did to get myself into a self care routine was identifying what I felt was missing for me – what did my brain and my body need?
My name is Erika – and I am a firm believer in self care. I never thought that I would be so into taking care of myself, since I’m pretty happy with who and how I am – until I hit a low point at work that made me uncomfortable and overall, unhappy.
