Sometimes you just need a break from daily life. You've worked hard all week and you've been doing so much and you're feeling drained, tired and a little frustrated because you know you've got to get up and grind hard daily. I want you to keep pushing, keep building and keep moving forward on your goals but sometimes you just need a break from it all. You are long overdue for a girl's trip! Make a plan with some of your best friends and getaway! We live in a society that likes to collect nice things but I like to create moments and memories that will last a lifetime. Recently I went on a cruise with 30 other women that I did not know prior and I had a blast! Sometimes we get so caught up in the daily grind that we forget to live! We forget to create new memories and moments with the ones we love and give room for new friendships to be developed. Below are three reasons why you need to get away.

  1. You're always there for others and though you don't mind you find yourself not allowing others to be there for you. You're so good at putting on a face that others around you may not notice that something is wrong. It's time to put away the strong mask and allow yourself to be free. Allow yourself to be venerable and others to give you wise counsel on the things that are troubling your heart. Real friends will help you adjust your crown take this time to allow them to do it.
  2. You've been so busy with your responsibilities that you’ve forgotten yourself. You work so hard to accomplish your goals but you're exhausted and on edge. When everything is frustrating you and it seems like it's too much you need a break. Go someplace where you can recharge and relax. A nice weekend getaway with no phones, computers or social media should help you get back to the fun loving woman you are.
  3. You've been saying for years you're going to do it. I'm telling you to do it! You've been becoming jealous when you're scrolling on social media looking at other people's vacation trips while you could have some of your own. Just do it! Stop feeling guilty for doing something for you and take some time to enjoy yourself! Don't allow anyone to get you to change your mind. It's okay that you take some time for you!

It was long overdue for me to take a real vacation! I was able to enjoy myself, relax, reset and refocus! This trip connected me with some amazing women who have become my sisters and now I have more places to visit! It's time we stop putting our dreams aside waiting for others to approve. It's time to do those things you enjoy doing. I love to travel and I plan on traveling a lot more in the months to come. If you don't have anyone to travel with go solo and enjoy yourself! Create memories and live Queen live!
