About A Providence Girl

This blog has taken on a life of its own. What started as a simple place to post fashion inspired photos has also become a place of self-reflection and mental health awareness. I discovered fashion as a tool in building self-confidence. I have learned that clothing choices have a strong impact on our psyche. Our emotional connection to what we wear will be reflected in how we see our place in life. I work everyday helping women learn to use fashion to feel more confident by finding styling options for every shape and size. While fashion has helped me to see a better version of myself, I believe it is also a gateway to being able to recognize your own self-worth and finding beauty in your struggle.

A Providence Girl has evolved into a mix of self-reflections, mental health advocacy, and as always….fashion. As I am finding my own kind of beautiful…I hope to inspire you to find yours.

Lately I have been tired, drained, and uncreative. I've been forcing myself to keep up with appearances. Here is the truth: I cry daily...I'm anxious, and even though I know I will be perfectly fine, my mind tends to warp every good thing into something bad. I have to work extra hard to see the positive light. I do it for this boy...because I can't imagine a world where I am not there for him. The most difficult thing about being diagnosed with a mental health issue is being able to define which thoughts are your own from those triggered from your condition. The second most difficult thing is finding the right path to wellness. Diet and exercise? More self care? Therapy? Medication? Alternative medicine? That alone can send an anxious person into overdrive. If you have made it this far reading my post...thank you. It is difficult to write about. I would much rather just keep quiet and not bother anyone. But the more we talk openly about our struggles, the more normalized they will become. I will always listen if your willing to share....no judgement here. We are stronger together ❤ . . . #anxiety #anxietyrecovery #depressionandanxiety #mentalhealthjourney #mentalwellness #wellnessjourney #letstalkmh #healingjourney #mentalhealthmatters #youareenough #youareworthy #berealbeyou #shareyourstory #youarenotalone #strongertogether

If you find yourself slipping back into the dark you once fought so hard to escape from, look for the light inside hearts of those who never leave your side. Because no matter how far you have drifted, these beautiful souls will be your beacon, guiding you through the fog of doubt and despair until you reach the shore safe and sound. . . . #hope #healingjourney #mentalwellness #mentalhealthawareness #wellnessjourney #wordsofwisdom #youareenough #youareworthy #confidence #selflove #selfhelp #buildingconfidence #lifechanges . . . #writersofinstagram #writing #inspirational #blackandwhitephoto #photooftheday #selfie #girlwithglasses #fridayfeelings

This month is my blog's birthday month! A Providence Girl is 2 years old! Today's picture is from my very first blog post. I wouldn't call myself a professional blogger, simply because I treat it more like a hobby than a career. I'm not actively looking for followers, I dont always post consistently, I don't understand social media algorithms, and I am definately not fluent in hashtag! But I am really grateful for my 400 instagram followers, and Facebook family. I am amazed from the genuine connections I've made. Thank you to everyone who has come along on this Confidence Journey with me. It is far from over...but I have more good days than bad now, feeling comfortable in my own skin. I hope that by being open and sharing my journey has inspired someone to find their own confidence in being their most authentic self. . . . . #confidencejourney #buildingconfidence #wellnessjourney #healingjourney #selflovejourney #mentalwellness #loveyourself #fashionista #curvygirl #curvygirlstyle #plussize #fashionista #outfitinspo #fallfashion #blogpost #blogbirthday #berealbeyou #shareyourstory #girlboss #honoryourcurves #beautywithin #ootd #psootd
