    I Tricked Myself into being Comfortable With My Body

    June 21, 2020 /

    I tricked myself into loving my body using a variety of methods and steps. I say tricked, but I really mean I trained myself to look at and think about my body in neutral and positive ways. Its not easy and I have a long ways to go but I can confidently say I don’t hate what I see in the mirror anymore (and haven’t for a while) and the mirror was a really important part of learning to love my body. Now as a disclaimer because I don’t want people in the comments saying “But Brette, you’re a hypocrite! You’ve had plastic surgery!” and they would be kind of…

    Getting Motivated: How to Make Tiny Changes in Your Life to Get Back the Motivation You Lost

    October 30, 2019 /

    I have not posted in a while. I lost the motivation to write, edit, make images, and post. Everyday I thought, "you should work on your blog." It only takes a few hours a week to create one post, why not just do it? The answer was simple, I didn't want to. I lost my motivation.

    The “Right” Reasons To Get a Breast Reduction

    September 18, 2019 /

    As someone who writes a lot about my breast reduction and is a huge advocate for the surgery, I get shitty people posting shitty comments that I always delete (I read and approve all comments on my content) because I don’t need that kind of negativity and no one else does. 100% of these comments are about the “right” reasons to get a breast reduction. This pisses me off to no end. When someone claims that there are “right reasons” to get a breast reduction, they are saying that most reasons are “wrong reasons.” The only wrong reason to choose a breast reduction (or augmentation for that matter) is when…

    Why I’m Not Afraid of Talking About My Breast Reduction Publicly

    July 29, 2019 /

    As I have said in my many posts about my breast reduction, I think it’s important for me to talk about it. In fact, I think it’s one of the most important things I am doing right now. I have stated in the past that I struggled to find good information and content on breast reductions when I was looking into the surgery, and that’s why I share so much about mine after the fact. This post isn’t very long and I don’t have any photos to share at this time, so bear with me.  As a teenager, I wanted to know everything I could about the surgery, but also…

    Nail Biting Habit Update: Taking a Break From Gel Manicures

    April 3, 2019 /

    When I began trying to break my nail biting habit back in August of 2018, I got my first gel manicure. Up until March 15th, I had only seen my bare nails when my amazing nail artist Marie was taking the old gel off and putting on new gel. This last manicure, my nails started to chip, flake and peel right away; which is strange considering I could go four weeks before without even a tiny chip or break. When I went in, I let her know what was going on and she was shocked too. I had heard that getting gel manicures back to back is not good for…

    Update On My Nail Biting Habit

    January 9, 2019 /

    My original goal was to go 90 days without biting or chewing before I considered my habit broken. I restarted my 90 days on November 29, so I'm 41 days in. I already decided though, that if I can go 90 days without biting or chewing my nails, I'm still going to extend my goal 90 more days. I really want to break this habit and be done with it.

    My Simple Skin Care Routine

    December 13, 2018 /

    My skin care routine has evolved over the years from only using bar soap, to using bar soap and a moisturizer, using a facial cleanser and moisturizers, the 10 step korean skin care regimen, to now: using bar soap again but with a facial oil, a surum, and a moisturizer. My skin care routine has changed so much but I ultimately found that keeping it simple is what works best for me. My Skin Care Routine Evolution I didn’t get my first “real” zit until I was about 16 years old.  There are a few things I think contributed to this phenomena, but in the end its because it was…
