Always remember. You are so much more than what others think of you 💜 #wordsofwisdom #wordsofaffirmation #mentalhealth

2025 was brutal, my resiliency stat leveled up a lot this year. I went inward this year. I got tired of people projecting their insecurities & jealousy onto me, so I focused on myself more. Every lie I heard, channeled more energy into myself & I thrived.

As this year draws to a close, I want to say thank you to everyone who believed in us 🩷 📸 OMEntertainment & Sigma Studios ✨ We brought so many incredible characters to life this year & it wouldn't have been possible without your help 💜 (continued)

My fiance really spoiled me this season 🥹❤️ This was the PS1 model I had when I was tiny, but my parents gave away when I got the PS2. He got the same model 😭 I've been wanting to play Parasite Eve for the longest time I'm so excited 🎉

Life Updates 💜 Going on a little stream hiatus but I'll still be event planning & posting content 🎉

My fiance gifted me this on GameCube for Christmas, can't wait to play in the future 💜 I'll be showing pictures of the retro games & console he gifted me soon 🎉

"No matter what painful things happens, even when it looks like you'll lose. . When no one else in the world believes in you. . When you don't even believe in yourself. .
