The journey towards self-love is full of ups, downs, twists and turns. To love yourself and to appreciate yourself for who you are is a long process and additionally, is not easy.

We all go through points in our lives where we find ourselves comparing who we are and what we have to others. We encounter people who make us feel as though we are not good enough or capable enough to do the things we believe we are set to do.

Even those who are further along in their journey to self-love still encounter things that set them back, but it is through the journey that you really get in touch with who you are.

I want you to know that you. are. enough. Quit looking for ways to beat yourself up, compare, and distract yourself from how far you have come and what you are blessed with.

I understand how hard it is to get caught up in the lives of others and distract ourselves so much that we lose touch with who we are and what we need spiritually, physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Cut out friends who make you feel low or less than them. Take breaks from social media and be more present. Nourish your body with healthy, whole foods. Put self-care first!

For me, creating music is one of my favorite creative outlets and ways to express myself. It allows me to share my story and practice self-care as it gives me the opportunity to pour out bottled feelings.

I am excited to share with you that I will be releasing my very first single, “Be Loved,” which is available for pre-order. This single is very special to me as it captures a little bit about my journey towards self-love.

Even after many years, I still have so much work to do in terms of loving myself, but I am proud of where I’m at compared to where I was just a few years ago. Sometimes the journey can be just as, if not more, significant than the destination.

I hope my song will inspire you, empower you, and assure you that putting yourself first is okay. Stay tuned for the release of “Be Loved,” coming out September 18th, 2018.
