HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS!!!

I honestly can’t believe it is already 2019- one year away from 2020. I feels like I was preparing for Y2K just yesterday lol…

2018 will forever be remembered as the year I lost my sweet Bitzy. They day she passed was a day I feared since the day I got her & although It was heartbreaking, I survived that & that is a big deal. I will hold onto this year not because of the pain of losing her, but grateful because we really had a wonderful last year together.

…& although that was HARD AF/depressing, there were so many wonderful moments that happened this year. I took an amazing trip to Europe, my family & friends are healthy (most important), I watched my nephew turn one & got to see the world through his eyes, I celebrated 6 years with Zack, I made new friends, got closer with old friends, grew my business, was featured in Forbes, launched my presets, & had so much amazing support from all of you.

SO, with 2019 literally going down at midnight, I wanted to jot down some of my VERY loose resolutions. I don’t like to go into the new year with a to-do list cause that’s stressful, but I do like to make a little note of some things that I wish I did differently in the previous year/what I want to do better in 2019.

MY GOALS FOR 2019:

1. STOP APOLOGIZING: I say sorry too much for things I don’t need to be sorry for. I want to own my shit more in the New Year.

2. KEEP MY MOUTH SHUT: I have a big mouth & it’s bit me in the ass a few times this year, specifically in regards to business. Learn from me, if you’ve got a good idea, keep it to yourself.

3. BUILD MY BRAND & BUSINESS: because of the above resolution, I can’t say a lot about this one…  but there is something that will come to the FASHIONLUSH brand that is gonna be LIT AF.

4.  DO MORE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT: this past year I have been really making an effort to help the environment & I want this to be an even bigger focus for 2019. I also want to share this information with you guys so we can all help the environment cause our coral reef is dying & things need to change.

5. CARE LESS, CREATE MORE: I get caught up a lot in caring too much about EVERYTHING I put out there, so one of my main goals is to honestly give less fucks. I want to care less about everyone else’s opinion & do more of what makes me happy- both personally & professionally.

6. PRIORITIZE MY HEALTH:  these are not in any order, cause obviously this number 1. I was recently diagnosed with a hyperthyroid so this year I really need to focus more on my health. I want to eat more whole foods, practice more self care, take more time away from the computer, get my circadian rhythms back in check, & once this thyroid issue is handles- I need to get back into my workouts.

OKAY! That’s all I’ve got. Mainly this post is for me to hold myself accountable, but I hope something on this list makes yours too. THANK YOU ALL for your amazing support in 2018- I couldn’t do what I do without each & every one of you!

xo, E
