Have you taken time for yourself yet this year?

Stopping by to be real for a second ☕️

A common misconception I get from prospects is that hiring a team internally will benefit them more than working with an agency.

So what makes us different?

Our small team is built up of three educated, talented, and tenured women. We act as our clients in-house marketing team, providing full-time work at a flexible and unparalleled approach. That’s 3 experts for the price of ONE employee! Plus, you’ll be saving time by not having to train, saving money by paying a set package rate while skipping having to provide benefits and vacation time, and you’ll get a small team that cares for your brand just as much as you do.

Let’s make some magic together ✨

Cutting the bu****it.

(Long post not sorry)

Six weeks ago I experienced my first panic attack, which turned into multiple hospital visits and excruciating pain that never seemed to end. I went from being completely medication free to prescribed 5+ anti anxiety and sedation medications, which made me extremely embarrassed.

I went from thinking I could take on the world and maintain my stress by being high functioning, to barely being able to take care of myself.

All of this stemming from control, and the ignorance of not listening to my body. Working 12+ hour days until 2am, trying to fill my plate to distract my anxiety, and indulging in all the things my body was tired of (excessive weekend drinking, creating excuses for working out, eating junk, holding grudges, and so much more).

Through my healing journey I’ve managed to find the silver linings through the hell of it all — which there was genuinely a point where I believed I had died and was in hell. That was not a fun experience, in case you’re curious.

Among my many self-care rituals I’ve taken part in over the last 6 weeks, I came across a meditation that spoke this poem.

I’m the most controlling person I know. Without control I become aggressive and angry. When my body decided to take over these past few weeks, I was forced to release my control.

I’ve been sober for 6 weeks now, have been nourishing my body through yoga, breath work, and meditation. I’ve set strong boundaries with work and go to bed with my fiancé. I limit my screen time. I value my time and love with my friends and family from and entirely different perspective, and a lot of walls have been broken down.

Being forced to lose control has showed me that not everything is a loss. Pain is temporary. And everything is meant to happen for a reason.

Remember to take a break, before your body does it for you. Be gracious with yourself. 🤍

& if you’re tagged in this post, it’s because you have helped me in more ways than I can repay you. Love u & mean it.

whispering us sweet nothings 🤍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we first began working with Sabrina at Luna, I knew it would be a relationship that would grow beyond just working together. We feed off of her passion for nurturing her brand and have truly grown to obsess over the business just as much as the queen herself
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we work with brands, we want our guests to feel at home and fully trust our transformation process without any worry. It's only a bonus when we get to be your professional bestie along the way 🥂

Let's play a little game of would you rather 〰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Question 1: Would you rather have 500k followers with only 5% of them being engaged audience members, or would you rather have 5k followers with 75% of them interacting with your content?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Question 2: Would you rather have 1 million followers, but 1 purchase per month, or 1000 followers and 10 purchases per month?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just because you have a high following doesn't mean they're active, engaged users ready to buy your product or service. When we work with our clients, we focus on ensuring your engagement rate, content interactions, and landing page views increase each and every month from, rather than sourcing followers from accounts that don’t align with your brand.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Another common misconception we frequently see is that having a million followers means that person either makes a lot of money, makes a lot of sales, or has a lot of people who are interested in what they have to say.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unfortunately, bot and spam followers can flood your brand following. This will cause your content to be pushed out to all of the wrong pages, meaning your actual interested audience members won't see your content.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Moral of the story - don't stress if your following isn't high. If your engagement, content interactions, and landing page clicks are consistently increasing, you're on the right path to a successful business 🤍

instant gratification.

We’ve all been there. Sometimes our passion, drive, and vision of what’s to come overpowers us, leaving us elevated and overly impatient.

When we feel impatient about our vision, fears and insecurities start settling in and holding us back.

Trust in yourself and in the strength of your vision, and allow yourself to be a work in progress while recognizing the value of what you’re already able to offer to others.

People always ask me why I became an entrepreneur —

The simple answer is I just wanted to create, and nothing I did allowed me to do it to the extent I so badly craved. Making sh*t look good has always been my thing, and I always knew good things came out of creativity. I wanted to find a career that allowed me to use aesthetics and creativity to help others.

Starting with interior design certainly filled that missing piece I had always looked for but failed to find in all of my careers, but when I discovered working with woman entrepreneurs alike, my vibe shifted.

Women hold a lot of power in the world of design. Women are natural thinkers, creatives, and perseveres — making them the best collaborators in the world. Working with women owned businesses to show that femininity is powerful and strong while helping them grow their business is the most rewarding thing I could see myself doing, and aligns perfectly with my passion to create things that make a difference.

DM me to chat about your goals, passions, and what’s missing in your biz 🤍Let’s brainstorm, babe!

— getting real with a hot take.

Talking about anxiety shouldn’t be taboo. Did you know that Women are twice as likely to be diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, and the prevalence of anxiety disorders is significantly higher for women than men?

Now, this could be linked to hormones or even that women are majority over-thinkers and are more in touch with their emotions (sorry fellas). But that shouldn’t mean it’s a sign of weakness, just a minor side effect to being a hardworking and empathetic woman.

I’ve had anxiety for what feels like my entire life, but recently it’s been a lot worse and at times extremely debilitating - iykyk. I recently took an enneagram test and discovered my personality type is quite literally anxiety, so there’s that (type sixes where ya at?!) Anyway, I won’t bore you with the details of my hyperactive mind, but I will leave you with this quote that gives me the reassurance that I unfortunately consistently need -

𝑬𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝒊𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒂𝒔 𝒃𝒂𝒅 𝒂𝒔 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒌, 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒇𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒇𝒖𝒍 𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒈𝒉𝒕𝒔 𝒘𝒆𝒂𝒌𝒆𝒏 𝒚𝒐𝒖.

Your thoughts are a product of emotions and worries that probably don’t exist in the moment and most likely never will. As challenging as it may be, think of your worries as a down payment on a problem that doesn’t exist.

Continue to push yourself, to be empathetic, to feel & validate your feelings, but never let your thoughts weaken you. 👏🏼
