  • Let's get ready together in PARIS: Talking about self esteem & my HONEST thoughts on Paris
    Hi friends!
    Welcome back to another video! I appreciate you all being so patient with me for getting this video out. Last month has been, a lot. But I still want to celebrate the fact that I went to PARIS for my birthday. Like hello!? I'm so grateful for my life and everything I have learned in the last year. Plus we also talk about my honest thoughts on Paris it's self, because people has a lot to say about it before I got there lol.
    I hope that this video will be helpful for you all. Make sure to comment with any questions that you might have for me. Let's talk! Thanks for coming to my channel and spending some time with me! Don't forget to subscribe before you leave!
    xoxo, Mone 💕

    i heavily relate to not believing I "deserve" nice things including and particularly travel. Went on my first solo trip in 2018 when I was 29 and the peace and safety and relief I felt was indescribable cuz how dare me afford a flight and take care of myself! i'm just a child of poverty who has always struggled 😭. Not at the designer bag stage yet and still travel mainly to places south of the equator where it's "cheaper" but I'm soo excited for a first class trip to Asia whenever it happens 😍

    Yes, Paris has all the NYC attitude and impatience in the people, just in a language I don't understand. So therefore, it's scarier for me, lol

    You looked absolutely beautiful! I started following you in 2023. You are killing it in your 20's. It's amazing how we all traveled different paths at different ages. I can't remember what I did for my bday at this age except for raising my kids and being newly married. Now I'm darn near an empty nester and just started traveling. Paris is on my bucket list! Thanks for sharing!

    So very blessed and are aware that you are. Ive only known you here maybe a year, but the growth and maturity has been very enlightening and encouraging for many I see. The transparency allows others to know that what you see is far from the truth. Here’s to many more years ahead while gravitating in to what you were created to be and do.

    Amazing Paris so inexpensive! WOW! I don't know how long I've been seeing your shorts for. I've never committed before. Since it's your desire to wear name brand I know that's a thing in our community. I am glad you got to stretch your mind beyond what you thought possible. I hope you keep going in that direction. However quality is not always synonymous with brand name. And a lot of those brand don't even like us. I know this is about your journey to expand your mind but I'm sure you are confident that you have style without literally being an advertisement for multiple name brands at once. Plan for three generations down your line. Not just for tomorrow. Those brands plan off of people who think they have arrived because they are buying them whether they can afford them or not. You say you should be home by now. I know you enjoyed yourself. HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎈

    So proud of you and thankful to you. I’m turning 28 soon and I agree with the fact that the 27th year is super transformative. 25 was also but was difficult for me emotionally, 27 was freeing, enlightening, and the light at the end of the tunnel for me. Going to Paris is on my bucket list so to see this as someone is finally practicing living with a no scarcity mindset is sooo inspiring. 🤍
