Every new year feels like a clean slate. A way to start fresh with only hope and no hesitations. Having a plan you are eager to follow and is attainable. New beginnings are the start of something special. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Even a small achievement is a step in the right direction. Be kind to yourself. Give yourself grace. Give yourself the opportunity to take a leap, make mistakes, learn from them and come back even stronger the next time. This is your time. Don’t waste it on doubts. If you never try, you’ll never know.

So I’ve been hearing that photos are now old news and reels is where it’s at. But wait a minute… Wasn’t photos all Instagram was origins about? A single place to post all the beautiful stills of your life so your family & friends could keep up? I miss that. With that being said, I’m putting my fave shots from our last family shoot right here. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I always have a heard time choosing colour vs black & white. They both look so good in their own way. Swipe left and tell me which do you like better?

I recently had the chance to visit @vancouverlaser’s new location @r.medyaestheticsburnaby! I took a tour of the clinic and got a sneak peek of all their state of the art devices ready to give you the skin of your dreams. 

Along with my visit I got a little pampering in too. I had a hydrafacial treatment and my fave, IV therapy. 

Hydrafacials are perfect for those looking for a deep cleansing of the skin, exfoliating dead cells, extracting dirt and bacteria from the pores and infusing moisture, vitamins, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid into the skin. In my opinion hydrafacials are best paired with MicroMax or Glass Therapy for the ultimate glow! 

IV therapy has different cocktails for different occasions. I opted for the VitaBright which is a combination of Glutathione, Vitamin C & B12 that helps to brighten the skin and also has powerful anti-aging effects. Vitamin C contained in VitaBright is proven to boost collagen formation! Ideal for anyone with dull skin, anemia, tired liver or just in need of a boost after a night on the town!

Visit www.rmedyaesthetics.com for more information on location and treatments. Tell them Karen sent you!

Thank-you for having me @r.medyaestheticsburnaby! Can’t wait for my next visit 🤍

| | | END OF AN ERA… | | |

Trying my best to soak up every little bit of these little ladies before heading back to my 9-5 after almost 2 years. Mixed emotions, melancholy, bitter-sweet, poignant— no one word properly describes my hearts state. Simply put, I’m going to miss them immensely but I also know I’ll come back to more of myself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My career doesn’t define me but I’m good at what I do so it makes me feel capable of something other than being a Mom. My girls, my family, will always be my number 1 priority but I’m not about to lose myself in the mix. When I feel whole, I feel happy. When I’m happy, I’m a better wife; mama; human. I have to remind myself everyday that I still matter too.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s a S/O to all the strong, selfless & hustling parents that somehow make time for a 10 hour work day and a solid, loving family life at the same time— #rockstars #superheroes #unsungheroes #therealdifferencemakers ✌🏼
