Let's Try This Again

First of all, how are you? I've missed connecting with you so much. ??

If you remember my last email "Survival of the Stylette", you can put two and two together and see that since it's been about a year since we've last connected, I've been knee-deep ---NAY ?? ---waist deep in my healing era haha. It's rough for sure.

And y'all know I love being transparent. But honestly, it's brought me to this moment of writing this to you .

To tell you the truth, I was scared to talk to you again. I've had 50 million voices in my head giving me a million reasons why I shouldn't write an email, publish an article, etc like

girl they literally see how inconsistent you are, nobody cares about your healing journey or your personal problems, you still gotta show up. They're not trying to hear all that.

'here she goes with these "life happens" excuses again) they don't care lol. life happens to them too.'

'nobody even wants to hear from you anymore Tori lol, just stop lol. '

I know I've assembled hundreds of badass, relentless survivors and thrivers in my Stylette squad who understand that sometimes you just gotta say ??? to the world to go and get your peace. I lost so much within the past year but I know it's just preparing me for something greater. I've also gained so much during the past year, like wisdom, self-awareness, and a fresh start.

And that's exactly what I did. & Although I have those same voices trying to guilt trip me for that, the past year has been a journey I didn't know I needed, especially before I enter my 30th chapter in 52 days.

Before I turn 30, I'm going to complete my #75HardChallenge (you can watch my story highlights on my personal IG to follow my #75Hardchallenge journey @misstoribabyyy) , publish 10 videos on my Youtube Channel, work out 4x-5x a week, increase my meals and protein intake, gain 15 more lbs to get to my goal weight, market myself and my business everyday on and offline, read 10 pages of a book a day, spend at least 30min to an hour outside, and connect with you guys at least 1-2x times a week.

I thought it was so fitting that one of my favorite podcasters, B. Simone had returned to these podcasting streets and has made a comeback with her new show Let's Try This Again. She shared so many gems in Episode 1 (and her most recent solo episode, Ep 12, was amazing- I will touch on that one in my next email). But, similarly to B, I've been through so much privately and publicly.

I am ridding myself of the mentality that everything I've accomplished or will accomplish is part of my purpose, but I've realized that those are just accolades.

What I have been doing, what I love doing. Styling, speaking life and confidence into other women's lives, that's what I truly love. One of my many purposes. There's nothing like meeting a woman who shrinks and hides herself from the world and after a simple conversation or styling experience with me...she begins to look at herself in a different light. She actually sees the light within herself. She sees that the light within her is meant to shine brightly and boldly, not be dimmed, watered down, or hidden in the shadows. That brings me pure, genuine joy. ??

So with that being said, I truly want to reconnect with you and catch up, see where you're at right now whether that's with your personal or style journey. I'm an open book right now. So, let's have a virtual coffee date together!

I'm opening my calendar for anyone who wants to chat and connect.

I appreciate you beautiful. Thank you for sticking beside me for so many years, months, however long you've been here--- and literally wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for you. It's giving ' That's my stylist and I'ma stick beside her! ??' <3. I love y'all for real.

Xo Tori B.
