So I'm starting a new journey in this blogging world.  I always wanted to blog, but when it came down to actually doing it, I failed...miserably.  I really wanted that to change.  So I sat and prayed and threw good vibes to the universe for anything that would help me along this journey.  I asked for more energy, more time, less confusion, basically everything I thought I was missing.  

I got an answer..in the form of Alex Beadon.  (If you are a creative entrepreneur then you need to follow her..she is amazing).  I really wanted someone to help me in my business, and in my life, become passionate and more focused on what I was called to do.  I have always turned to other photographers(which I love by the way), but I really wanted something specific to business and my passions, not just photography centered.  I saw some of Alex's emails, blog posts, and ad's on Facebook, and I just felt the need to read more about her.  Come to find out through a periscope of hers, she used to be a photographer! Ironic right? But now is an entrepreneur helping other creative entrepreneur's find their voice and a passion for their businesses.

To cut to the chase here, I am challenging myself by blogging.  I'm not a good writer at all.  I hope you have made it to this line so far.  But I'm going to do it!  Our first mission was to write down all of the things that I am passionate to write about and tell the world. I made a large list and knew I could write about those things and feel good about it.  

Then came the second mission..."blog post on one of the items that you listed that excites you the most to write about!"  

Are you freaking kidding me? 

Last night I sat with laptop on, and just stared blankely at the screen feeling totally uninspired.  I got really down. Maybe this was a bad idea.  I shouldn't have done this.  I have nothing to offer the world. 

I decided to sleep on it and see what I could come up with in the morning.

This morning I decided that I have many passions, and right this second, for todays post,  I can't just narrow it down to one.  But I am passionate about telling you my story and what I plan to do. So here it goes!

If you decide to join my crazy train, I will write about...

My struggles-things I have issues with in hopes to inspire others that may be going through the same thing

My favorite products-Everyday I use items, or buy something amazing, and I want to share it with you.

Shelter Pets- I volunteer a lot of my time at our local Cascades Humane Society, and take photos of the available pets. We do a pet contest every year to raise money(this year we raised over $20,000)-I will share those with you!
