I'm all about maintaining motivation for things in my life and surrounding myself with positive messages and happy thoughts. If you've been here before, you know that I've spent the last year trying to lose the baby weight and trying to gain and happier and healthier me, for every reason stated in the universe: from having confidence to being able to sit on the floor and play with my babies, wear tanktops in the summer without being embarrassed about "fatarm" or wearing a hot dress to my husband's company holiday party (size 8, baby! From a 16 the year before! Woohoo!)
And I won't lie, it's been a rollercoaster ride and I've taken with me anyone who would listen. Right now, I'm training for a half-marathon and it's getting a little funscarypainfulhappy. It feels like I'm in a constant state of "training" and even if it weren't for some sort of athletic event, I think it would still remain true. Because everything in life is an event and training for something else to come.
So since I'm all about the self-motivation and self-improvement, I'm gonna give away a two things here (again to anyone who'll listen):
Giveaway #1: Any necklace or bracelet in my Etsy shop, Inspire Me Chic. Go ahead, head on over and browse around, then come back and leave me a comment about which piece of jewelry is your favorite.
Giveaway #2: My all-time favorite in the shop and the reason why I started making inspiration jewelry, the "Discipline" necklace. The necklace itself is a 16'' leather choker and the Discipline affirmation ring is sterling silver. I wear this one daily as a reminder to stay true to myself and focused.
So yes, there will be not one, but two winners, and both winners will get this:
My other favorite thing that I wear daily, a baby blue silicone bracelet that says, "Strength, Focus, Discipline". (I'm a bit of a nut when it comes to surrounding myself with the positives...)
Rules: Please leave me a comment any time before 8 p.m. et Friday night. I'll draw the first winner at random and that winner will receive prize #1. I'll draw a second winner who will receive prize #2. That's about it! I'll ship anywhere -- and each one comes in its own unique packaging, so it'll make a great gift in time for Valentine's if you don't keep it for yourself! Make sure you bookmark my shop, 'cause I'm always adding new creations and messages!
I wish you well on your journey and in your "training" and feel free to stop by any time! The door's always open! Thanks for stopping by!
