“This blog is about how I am finding my self-confidence and overcoming the fear of being true to myself. I hope that by sharing my journey, it will inspire others to find their way to living an authentic life..”

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.

Just going to leave this tidbit of wisdom here..... powerful words... . . . #wordsofwisdom #youareenough #youareworthy #confidence #selflove #beautywithin #buildingconfidence #confidencejourney #healingjourney #mentalwellness #followyourheart #qotd #inspirationalquotes

I have been wondering lately where the line is drawn between ego and confidence. Finding myself in a place where I must speak for my own talent and prove my abilities. As I seek to sound like a confident woman, I pray I do not come off as being egotistical. But perhaps I only feel this way because I had thought so low of myself for so long. It's taken too much time to know my worth and I do not want to settle for anything less. ❤ #confidencejourney . . . #buildingconfidence #confidence #selflove #selfhelp #youareenough #youareworthy #confidence #iamenough #iamworthy #curvyconfidence #wellnessjourney #healingjourney #selflovejourney #thoughtoftheday #thoughts #wednesdaywisdom #blackandwhitephoto #selfie #girlboss #beingreal

Our life is a journey We travel a road That twists, turns, and bends And leaves answers unknown ... How do you know which path to take when standing at a cross road? ... It's humbling to have choices, but overwhelming to choose. ... Especially when you can't go back down the one you came from. . . . #change #lifechanges #transitions #choices #buildingconfidence #confidencejourney #healingjourney #mentalwellness #lifejourney #wellnessjourney #thinkingoutloud #blackandwhitephoto #photooftheday #photography #bridge #path #nature #writersofinstagram #writing

I'm feeling the black & white pictures lately. I've been drawn to their simple clarity and clean definition. Probably because my world has been turned into mushy pool of gray.... so don't mind me as I work through putting all the colors back. 🖍🖌🎨 . . . #photooftheday #selfie #photography #blackandwhitephoto #buildingconfidence #confidencejourney #lifechanges #mentalwellness #healingjourney #growth #anxiety #beingreal #anxietyrecovery #writing #writersofinstagram #girlwithglasses

He works so hard....we have come such a long way. I'm thankful for his teacher, the special ed/ese team, his development specialist.... it takes a village! Proud of my boy!

Anger is powerful. Two things can happen: it will either consume you and destroy you... OR or will be a force that propels you in a new direction. Use that power to create change. Use that power to make a difference. Use that power to fuel a courage to conquer the things you fear most. In that moment, when the dark is the blackest it's ever been....mold that burning rage into a fireball, shoot it high, and light up the whole damn sky. . . . #movingforward #angry #powerful #powerfulwoman #strongwoman #confidence #strong #inspire #motivation #youareenough #youareworthy #bestrong #youcandothis #mentalwellness #healingjourney #growth #steppingstones #blackandwhitephoto #photooftheday #photography #selfie #girlboss

At the smallest spark, I unravel and spin a spool of fire. Burning thoughts and memories smothering my desires. My mind plays games, don't know why I feel this way...consumed but hollow....pushing you away. But you stay. . . . .

This story was told by a speaker at the mental health matters walk this morning. I have never heard it before. Incredibly inspiring: "During the early days of mental health treatment, asylums often restrained people who had mental illnesses with iron chains and shackles around their ankles and wrists. With better understanding and treatments, this cruel practice eventually stopped. In the early 1950s, Mental Health America issued a call to asylums across the country for their discarded chains and shackles. On April 13, 1953, at the McShane Bell Foundry in Baltimore, Md., Mental Health America melted down these inhumane bindings and recast them into a sign of hope: the Mental Health Bell. Now the symbol of Mental Health America, the 300-pound Bell serves as a powerful reminder that the invisible chains of misunderstanding and discrimination continue to bind people with mental illnesses. Today, the Mental Health Bell rings out hope for improving mental health and achieving victory over mental illnesses. Over the years, national mental health leaders and other prominent individuals have rung the Bell to mark the continued progress in the fight for victory over mental illnesses." https://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/bell . . . #mentalwellness #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthjourney #mentalhealthmatters #anxiety #anxietyrecovery #depression #letstalkmh #youareenough #youareworthy #recovery #wellnessjourney #healingjourney #overcoming #inspirational #inspiringstory #shareyourstory
