We are often taught that being financially savvy requires budgeting our finances down to the penny. This concept is incredibly valuable as it helps us understand where our money is going and enables us to set goals for a prosperous future. However, what if I told you that the aspect of our lives that truly needs budgeting is not our finances, but rather our time?

With the welcoming of the new year, comes the old phrase “New Year, New Me.” Personally, I am not a fan of the phrase. New Year, yes. New Me, not so much. While I appreciate the hope that the new year brings, I don’t believe that the idea of changing yourself with every new year is a good one.
Most of us have many beliefs about ourselves.

So, I challenge you to be brave enough to experience a few things on your own. To help you out, here’s a list of my Top 7 Things to Do Alone. (Don’t worry, I would never give you something I haven’t done myself)!
Have you ever seen a woman walk into a room, and for some reason you can’t take your eyes off of her? You’re not really sure if it’s her style, her makeup, or maybe her hair... but something about her makes you want to get up, give her two snaps and a twist and a resounding “Yasssss, girl, yassss!”
I have been privy to so many good talks. Talks that have not only made me question myself, but they’ve also pushed me to reevaluate my thoughts, or even given me the ever-famous Oprah “A-ha moment.” But out of all of the memorable conversations that I have had, the one that sticks out to me the most was a late-night heart-to-heart, had in Hawaii with a group of girlfriends.
