CONSTANCE

About Me: Constance

HI! I am Constance, a 20 something from Seattle, WA. I currently reside in NYC, and I am in pursuit of a Master's Degree in Urban Affairs. I have an avid love of traveling, something I do not do enough but save for regularly. You can catch me watching my faves: Jane the Virgin, Grey's Anatomy, and Shameless. I watch the last one in truth partially because it is so ridiculous, it makes me feel better about my own crazy life. I love to laugh and cry with those closest to me. And I love a good wine-and chat.

 I want to see you succeed. I want to see you grow. Thank you for reading about my own struggles and victories here. Writing this blog is something I have wanted to do for a while, and I cannot thank you enough for humoring me with your views. I am so excited what the future holds for us all!

July 31, 2019: When there is a sign

July 31, 2019 There are a million and one things that constantly grab our attention every day. Those things can be but are surely not limited to our phones, computers, social media, our significant others, friends and even family.  Despite what we tell ourselves were addicted. We are addicts to the lives of others; the amount of times we check our phones and compare ourselves to the person looking happy on other side invalidates our outlook on ourselves. One of the things we forget when we become addicted to this fantasy is the positive attention, we need to put on ourselves. For some this may sound like some weird conspiracy theory that you’ve heard so many times but don’t want to believe, but for others you might think well hey you’re right maybe I should focus some time on myself, but where do I even begin?  Well hold your horses I’m not saying to drop everything you’ve ever known; drop all the people you’ve ever cared about or throw your phone out the window; because...

Lessons for a Break Up

About two or three months ago, a friend of mine was going through a break-up.  They were a cute couple, and she was my close friend, he, my ex's best friend. She was devastated but, she no longer wanted to be in a relationship in which she felt limited. I gave her the best advice I could one night, sighting lessons from my own relationship, one that had not yet ended. I sent a list of ways to cope, move on, forgive herself. It has been an entire month since I parted ways with my ex. A MONTH. Where has the time gone. I feel a little stronger everyday. I am learning to lean and to lean deep into what is going on around me. Last night, I was going through my phone and I found the list. And there it was: cogent, genuine lessons from right inside me. I did not know how refreshing it was to know that there was truth within, however limited it may feel now. Today, I'm sharing that list with you. I hope it helps you through any trial you may be facing. Please share your opinions...

Healing Brokenness: A Christian Gal's Perspective

It’s been a minute.  The last two weeks have been the most transformative experience I’ve had in the past few months. I wrote this post on a plane home from a girls trip to Hawaii. The trip was SO restorative and more peaceful that I could’ve ever imagined. My best friend Poppy, one of the most incredible people I’ve ever met helped me through a series of emotions, emotions which had been causing me to be anxious and confused. The most pervasive feeling I had been feeling for weeks now was brokenness, and it wasn’t until I talked with her that I could identify it’s presence in my life. Let me tell you what I revealed to Poppy: In the months following my split, I had this intense desire to do EVERYTHING I wanted to— going on spontaneous trips, partying, pushing the limit with my clothing choices, splurging on whatever I wanted, going on dates, meeting new friends, and so much more. I hadn’t done those things in two years and I felt like it was time to live a little. But...
