Portable Is The New Hot

Dear Birthday Girl, It's another beautiful year! 🎉🎉🎈🎈 Wasn't it just like yesterday when you were having so much fun with the squad in calabar? Eating cake and taking pictures? How time flies indeed! I'm so thankful for how far you've come, the mistakes, the lessons, the achievements, the humble beginnings, the good times, the bad times and most importantly your relationship with Abba, I know it's been great so far! 😊 Now I know this past year has been a HANDFUL, believe me I know. I mean the provision of the job and the almost immediate loss of that same job, the sleepless and traumatic nights over the  'Adeolu scare' as I like to call it, let's face it, how does one really get over the near-death experience of their only brother? Ha! The devil really tried himself that day 😩😆 but is it not the same boy that still turned 17 yesterday? God is great! how about all the many fights and misunderstandings with loved ones out of fraustrati...

Hey Guys! How was the weekend? I'm sure a lot of people are so excited that today is a public holiday, I hope you're making the most of it though? Well there's no holiday per se for me because today is my final clearance, yes that's right. That NYSC thing that I dreaded for so long is finally coming to an end. *inserts victory dance*  Watch this space for deets about my NYSC diaries! Alrighty! For some of us that are very conversant with the blog, you'd remember that I did a Self Love Challenge in August, and I talked about how it was an amazing experience Here . Now this particular post is what I'll call an aftermath of that excercise. A lot of us are aware that from self love comes self confidence, self worth, self respect and just a great self esteem generally. Some of the books I read during the challenge really explained how important it is to build up your confidence as a person because it is one of the things that determine how successful you can be i...

Hi Guys, How was the weekend? Mine was turnt of course thanks to all of you. 😊 I must say I really appreciate the love, you guys made my day. I love you 😚 Having said that, it's time to get back to business. For those of us who are doing the Self Love Challenge  , how has it been? Do you feel even a slight change in the aspect of loving yourself?  Are you having any difficulties? Please let me know in the comment section ❤ Now to the business of the day... Do you know that every decision you make and everything you do in life should be based solely on YOUR  own preferences and nobody else's? In other words, you owe nobody any explanation regarding any of your life decisions as long as it doesn't hurt them in the process. Now this might sound rather cruel or harsh but please don't take it the wrong way. I'm not saying that you shouldn't go about with your chin so high up without paying attention to people, as a matter of fact for you to love and apprec...

Hello Ladies, It's been a minute, how have you been? Fabulous I hope?😊 I welcome you to yet another Girlschat series and today's topic was suggested by Adeola Babalola, a reader of the blog and a friend too. She sent me a link this morning and said she hopes I find something useful in it and I did, then I thought why don't I share it with you tonight? Anyway here we are. Don't forget that if you have any questions or topics you want us to talk about you can send me an email; aadeoti87@yahoo.com or leave a comment below. If you missed the previous topics in the series, you can catch up  Here   and  Here . So you're probably thinking that 30 is still far away so this list might not really be something you need, trust me it's closer than you think and having been that my birthday is on Saturday I am even more reminded how close it is (yeah I just stylishly told you about my birthday...again😉). As ladies in our twenties, there are a lot of things we ne...

Hi guys, First of all, Let me apologise for not posting yesterday as I said, I was very busy and that made me tired which is why I couldn't post, Please accept my apologies🙏 hope your week is going well? So I said this post is basically to shed more light on the 30 days self love challenge which has already started even though I haven't paid too much attention to it🙈. I discovered that quite a number of people are not content with who they are, they might make it seem like it but deep down they are not. This is why we tend to compare ourselves with others; we'll think to ourselves "if only I had her hair, eyes, shape, life,etc". what we fail to realize however, is that this kind of behaviour eventually reflects on the outside because we tend to sway from side to side looking for anything that will benefit our dream persona- this shouldn't be. This challenge is divided into three (3) parts; Detox and Cleansing Appreciating   Growing ...

Hey guys! How was the weekend? Monday again huh? I know. We'll get through it. I'll first like to say thank you for your responses on the last post, I pray that we'll all find God sent better half, and if you don't know anything about what I'm saying all you gotta do is click HERE  and join the fun. So some weeks back, I stumbled on a Ted talk, (remember this? If not check this post )  and the guest speaker for this one was Ashley Graham. She's a beautiful Plus sized model and a body activist.  She started off by looking into the mirror that was placed in front of her and she started saying nice things to herself. She said she wouldn't trade her arms or thighs for anything in the world even though some people will refer to it as 'big'. I particularly liked the way she started and this really kept me going. She talked about how she suffered self esteem issues, how she was body shamed and a whole other setbacks. All these is now history b...
