Circling Back

May 13, 2021 · Lifestyle

Sometimes I think we are just meant to be involved in a specific career or have a love of something. I can remember it beginning all the way back in my childhood, watching my Mom putting her hair up in hot rollers and putting on her make-up. She “got ready” for the day, every day. I would sit on her bed and just watch her; I can still see it clear as day!

My love for hair did not stop there, when I was a teen, I loved trying all kinds of styles. It was the 80s, so I had big hair and used lots of hair spray. I remember my Mom yelling at me for using too much!

My 80’s hair!

After high school, I went to Cosmetology school and got my license. I was a hairstylist for years! It worked well when my kids were younger, I could work my schedule around their schedule. But when they got older the evenings and Saturdays did not seem to work as well for our family. I went back to school and had been in the medical field ever since. I was always like my Mom in the way that I have always liked to get up every day and “get ready” for the day. Hair, make-up because you never know who you will run into!

So, I spent about ~12 years as a hairstylist, then the next ~18 in the medical field. Let us not waste any time doing math, I am old! While in the medical field I still loved hair, I did not want to come back out of retirement to go behind the chair again, but I love everything about being able to help people feel good about themselves again. We do not have to be vain but let’s be honest, we feel better about ourselves when our hair and skin look better, it’s just a fact!

I started my blog, Hello South last year. I love it, I love talking about our adventure moving from Ohio to South Carolina. But I was still missing something. In walks my friend Danielle! She brings me this amazing business opportunity called Monat. A shampoo company? You see, I have always been a snob when it comes to my products, anyone who is a hairstylist will tell you that this is true. We only use salon-quality products! I was not about to switch to a shampoo that was not sold from a salon warehouse! Okay, so yes, I finally gave in and tried it. You might be able to tell that I have been hooked ever since! From my very first shampoo my hair has never felt so clean, never has had so much body and shine!

Why do I talk SO much about Monat’s products? Because they have totally transformed my hair, skin, and life! The products are top of the line, free from toxins and harmful fragrances, vegan, naturally based, and leaping bunny approved! The company is based in the USA, products are made here, they REALLY care about their Market Partners and customers. They listen and their compensation program is better than anyone else’s! I cannot skip one of the best parts, I have become part of a group of women that lift each other up, they celebrate each other and do not tear you down when you succeed. I had been missing this in my life.

I have circled back to where I began but in a stronger and more fulfilled way. I am so excited about what this chapter in my life is going to bring and who it is going to bring into my life!

Is it JUST shampoo? No! It is so much more; it will be the best products that you have ever used, it will bring the most amazing people and experiences into your life if you are open to it!

If you want to hear more about the company or would like to just go straight to having a consultation, just click the link below that you prefer! I look forward to hearing from you!

Planning on moving soon? 🏡 I have recently been on both sides, getting my house ready to sell and scouring the market for a new home. People sometimes make the mistake of not being able to overlook easy cosmetic changes in a new home. I love to decorate so I can look past that. My wheels start turning with all kinds of ideas! 🤯
•
Today over on Hello South Blog I am sharing: 𝟓 𝐖𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐥
•
These ideas are easy and you don’t even have to be selling a home to use some of the ideas! I even have a super handy shoe organizer linked that you might want to check out!

𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒊 𝑪𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒈… Some periods in our lives are stormier then others. Honestly it has been a stormy year for us. What is it that they say, get knocked down 9 times, get up 10 💪🏻
•
I debated sharing this most recent storm with y’all but I thought some of you might eventually notice a change in scenery! My husband found out in February that his company was going to eliminate his entire department. Unfortunately he has not been able to find a new job in the Charleston area. We were blessed that he was offered a position with a new company in the St Petersburg, Florida area. So as much as we love Charleston and had long term plans here we will be moving. 🏡
•
Things that I know for sure:
✨ God has something different planned for us and we need to trust in his plan. 🤍
✨ I can handle a lot more stress then I ever thought I could. 
✨ Things could always be worse, we have our health. 
✨ People judge, they think they know what is going on but they really have no idea. So let them judge and think they “know” but only one opinion really matters and He sees your heart. 🕊 Just keep shining ✨
•
So stay tuned friends! Lots of changes are coming in a very short period of time! We’ve got this! 🙌🏻
