Let me have a word with you…. Let me have a word with you….
Most people look at their Instagram insights. Not Most people look at their Instagram insights.
Not everyone knows what they are actually looking at.

I see it all the time when I sit down with clients. They know their numbers are there. They just are not sure what to do with them. So let’s fix that.

Your Instagram insights are broken down into two categories. Post insights show you how one specific piece of content performed. Account insights show you how your overall strategy is performing over time. Both matter and they answer different questions.

Here is what to pay attention to on every post:

-Views — your highest number, counts every time your content was seen including multiple views from the same account
-Reach — the number of unique accounts that saw your content, watch how much is coming from non followers
-Engagement — likes, comments, saves, and shares. Saves and shares are the most valuable
-Profile Visits — how many people were curious enough to go look at your page after seeing your content
-Follows — which posts are actually convincing people to stick around
-Audience Details — who is seeing your content and when they are most active

Here is the thing. High views with low engagement means your content is being seen but not connecting. High profile visits with low follows means something is off on your page. Go check your bio and your pinned posts.

Your insights are not just numbers. They are directions.
Save this and go pull up your insights right now.

That is what I am here for.
It took me months to work my way up to leg pressin It took me months to work my way up to leg pressing 160 pounds.

In the last four weeks, I dropped back to 100.

That sounds discouraging until you know the whole story.

I took two weeks completely off while we were on vacation. Then I spent another two weeks barely making it to the gym because life got busy and my knee needed a break.

Old me would have looked at that number and thought I was starting over.

Now I know better.

Progress isn’t a straight line. It’s full of vacations, injuries, busy seasons, family commitments, work deadlines, and days when your body simply needs rest.

The strongest people I know aren’t the ones who never lose momentum. They’re the ones who keep coming back.

So if you’ve ever looked at someone else’s progress and wondered why yours feels so slow, remember this: you’re only seeing a snapshot. You’re not seeing the months of consistency, the setbacks, the plateaus, or the days they had to start lighter than they wanted to.

Fitness isn’t something I’m trying to “finish.” It’s a lifelong relationship with my body. Some seasons I’ll be stronger. Some seasons I’ll simply be showing up.

Both count.

I know I’ll get back to 160.

And when I do, it’ll be because I kept going—not because I never took a break.

If you’re in a season where it feels like you’ve taken a step backward, give yourself some grace. Your journey isn’t over. It’s just another chapter.
Paxton’s 13th birthday trip was basically one long Paxton’s 13th birthday trip was basically one long session in Mother Nature’s sauna. We sweated through every outfit, every park, and probably lost our body weight in water.

But if there’s one thing this family is going to do, it’s look as cute as possible while melting.
Jaws 🦈 is one of my all-time favorite movies. Dire Jaws 🦈 is one of my all-time favorite movies. Directed by Spielberg, it’s a true classic, and I’ve been obsessed since I was a kid. I’ve watched it more times than I can count and have read the book three times.

When we planned our trip to Universal, I told Tia there was only one thing I wanted: a Jaws manicure. Even though the ride is gone, there were still plenty of Jaws props to see, and our hotel even had this incredible sand sculpture in the lobby. It was the perfect excuse to share a few of my favorite facts about one of my favorite movies.

My 5 favorite Jaws facts:

1. “You’re gonna need a bigger boat” wasn’t in the script. Roy Scheider ad-libbed the line. Fun fact: if I ever own a beach house, I’m naming it A Bigger Boat.
2. In the novel, Chief Brody’s wife, Ellen, has an affair with Matt Hooper. That storyline was completely removed from the film.
3. Spielberg intentionally filmed the shark more like a serial killer than an animal. The stalking behavior and carefully built suspense gave it almost human-like characteristics and leaned heavily into Hitchcock-style suspense.
4. The mechanical shark, nicknamed Bruce, was never properly tested in salt water. It malfunctioned so often that Spielberg was forced to show it less, which ended up making the movie even scarier by relying on suspense and John Williams’ unforgettable score.
5. That iconic, Oscar-winning score? It’s essentially just two alternating notes: E and F. Somehow, those two notes became one of the most recognizable pieces of music in movie history.

What’s a movie you’ve seen so many times you can practically quote it from memory?

Spring Shorts Sets

All the leaves are green and the sky is blue and it smells like spring.  A few months ago I started making a must have list for spring and a few things like gingham, floral and a short set were on the list.  Something about a short set just makes me happy.  I can’t wear this outfit without feeling a little sassy and wanting to show off my tan legs.  It’s all my feelings for spring in one outfit.

The spring brings so much great weather but it also brings along food festivals, outdoor concerts, bbqs, crawfish boils and more.  The mild but warm temps only last for so long down here in Louisiana so we make the most of it.

I had been on the lookout for a short set and this one happened to catch my eye at Mackenzie and Me when I was checking out.  I immediately started making a list in my head of all of the reasons that I needed it.  Aside from the cute print I also loved the sleeves on the top and the details on the shorts.  Plus I felt like I would be able to wear it as a set or separately too.

If you are looking to maximize your wardrobe for a trip this summer a short set would be the way to do it…

 

My absolute favorite things about this set is the pattern because the color options are endless.  I also loved that the fabric was light so it would work in the hot spring and summer weather.  I also would be able to wear a bra with straps which is a nice option to have.  I bought this one in a large which I think worked because of the boho fit.  I would say it runs TTS.  I also paired it with these flat sandals but it would work with wedges too.  Lastly these Golden Lily feather earrings were the perfect compliment to the outfit.

Here are some of my other favorite set options for the summer…

Have you been to Disney or Universal in the summer Have you been to Disney or Universal in the summer?  What was your experience?  To me, I’d go back this time of year again because the crowds were so small. I can deal with the heat if I don’t have to wait 90 minutes for every ride! 

Despite the heat we had a great time for @paxton2short’s 13th birthday trip!!
