From me, to you ✨🩵

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Just a little late 🤏🏼 - I have the sweetest memories in Disney thanks to my parents who gave me such an amazing childhood. I don’t say that lightly because I know it’s a privilege that not everyone has so I am filled with gratitude. With that said, I went back to the same hotel I spent my 5th birthday but this time 30 years later to celebrate my 35th. I’ve always wanted to do Disney solo and it was perfect. Thank you Emi for the sweet surprise at the end of the night 🐭✨ taken in Magic Kingdom by @p.c.r.o

Pauli the potter 💁🏻‍♀️ I fell in love with ceramics when I was 12, if only I would’ve pursued it I’d be a pro by now but it’s never too late to start again. I don’t think I’ll ever stop ✨ by @p.c.r.o

35🪻 & a letter to myself ✨

This birthday feels different.

Not because I suddenly became perfect, healed, confident, or fearless…but because for the first time in my life, I’m no longer hiding from myself.

These photos are soft proof of that.

The stretch marks.The extra pounds.The little fat rolls.The curly hair I once hated.The body I spent years criticizing.The emotions I used to feel ashamed for having.

All of it is me.And for once… I love her.

I love that I’m a little weird.I love that I still act like I’m 12 sometimes.I love animals so much I’d probably save a cockroach if I had to. I love birds, vanilla chocolate chip ice cream, french fries, hot dogs, cheap pizza, the 1500s time period, movie nights, and rotting in bed after a long day.

I love my family.I love the very few friends who stayed.
I love love… even after everything.

I forgive more times than people probably deserve.I still choose to believe there is good in people, even the ones who hurt others. I have a short temper sometimes, but I’m trying. I’m growing. I’m learning.

And maybe that’s what 35 is for.

To finally understand that softness is not weakness.That feeling deeply is not something to apologize for.That being tender in a hard world is actually a form of strength.

I never thought I would do a photoshoot showing my body like this.But something inside me said:stop waiting until you feel “worthy” to exist fully.

So here I am. Unedited(ok maybe just a little) Emotional. Dreamer of dreams, lover of life. Give me some lemons and I’ll make sweet lemonade.

I am my own treasure. A diamond being prepared by God.A woman becoming herself after years of trying to be everything else.

Thank you to my beautiful best friend/cousin Valentina for making me feel safe enough to capture these moments exactly as I am. @v.a.moments @_itzvaleee

And honestly?I think this is the most beautiful version of me yet.

With love, Pauli🐦‍⬛ by @p.c.r.o

I still grab your collar and move it around with my eyes closed so I can feel like you’re still here. My heart is breaking tonight. I love you. by @p.c.r.o

Such is life 🌞✨🌴

but this season of my life has been teaching me that sometimes happiness looks like:
an iced coffee before anything,
solo beach days,
activities with coworkers after a long shift,
sitting by the pool with pico de gallo and no rush to be anywhere,
going to church and feeling your heart calm down a little,
driving with the windows down,
trying a new coffee flavor just because,
learning how to enjoy your own company again.

this month feels special to me.
not because everything is perfect…
but because i’m finally learning how to appreciate the little moments while i’m becoming the version of myself i prayed for (i still don’t know what im looking for tho)

and honestly? there’s something really beautiful about realizing your life doesn’t have to be loud to still be full.

here’s to healing bc it’s not linear, some days you’re healing, others you’re breaking & then healing again ☺️
to soft happiness.
to sunsets, beach air, iced coffee, faith & good people.

chapter 35 is almost here 🤍 by @p.c.r.o
