New Year - New Ideas

[katidid]

Hi lovelies!

Wondering if you all could give me your feedback. I’m gonna go out on a limb and “come out” to the public. Hello world, I have Lupus! (I’ve been hiding it b/c I was fired from my job when my boss found out).

I want to give back and do this in a positive way, so I’m gonna try to set up a YouTube channel dedicated to life hacks for us butterflies 🦋

First up: makeup and skin care. Kind of a trial of different products and tips for working with your skin whether it be the rash or just general issues we have ongoing.

Next: Hair. I cut mine yesterday and we did some very clever styling to work with the hair loss. A bonus even. My hair dresser showed me where she was losing her hair because .... yup, you guessed it! She has Lupus too. #wow

After that: Sunscreen. This one will be fun and probably very funny as full body coverage is not as easy as they say 😅

Lemme know what you think! You all are my sounding board so throw some ideas at me and I’ll see if I can make it happen! Also, if you want to help I’d love some partners in crime

xoxo

Lemme know what you think.

I like the idea but can't think of any suggestions at the moment

😉 Ping me anytime. I imagine this will be an ongoing project

Fabulous idea! Practical info would be great eg lotions and potions to moisturise. Foods for energy. What pacing really means on a daily basis - when u empty the washing machine only bend down to pick what you dropped once.

Great idea! Go for it!

How about including nutrition or diet, exercise and meditation? Maybe try out 3 of each category each time and rank them in order.

Eg, mindfulness apps like Calm, Headspace and Insight - try them all and see what you think is best....

I'd definitely tune in!

Please post your YouTube channel. I’d love to follow

Awesome post! Just tell me one more thing, do you plan using any hair curlers? Maybe any of these hairmadnesssalon.com/hair-r...? I was using these a while ago as well as clarifying shampoos to give me volume. What do you think?
