While a large portion of February focuses on love, it often leaves many people spending so much time thinking about others that they forget to also think about themselves. It's a hard balance to strike- thinking about others and thinking about yourself. Most of my life has been spent putting others first. My mother and grandmother were my greatest examples of what being a selfless wife and mother looks like. I have spent fifteen years of marriage and twelve years of motherhood putting the needs of the loves of my life before my own, and likely always will. I would do anything for my family. In recent months, however, I have become acutely aware that my self-care has become non-existent, and that needs to change.
With my husband's encouragement, I've realized that I need to do things for myself, take time for myself, take care of myself. Why do you think the example of 'moms are told to put the oxygen mask on themselves first, and then on their children' in the event of a mid-air emergency? We can't take care of others if we're not first taking care of ourselves.
This month, I am so excited to introduce you to a beautiful jewelry brand, Katia Designs. Katia Designs features beautifully hand-crafted jewelry pieces that speak to the heart. Located in South Florida, Katia Designs is owned by Catherine "Katia" Rudnick. Katia Designs is a collection of spiritual jewelry that speaks to the heart and brightens the day. Each piece of jewelry features an empowering message, as well as other components, such as gemstones, crystals, and more.
Katia Designs offers a beautiful collection of jewelry for every style and budget. The pieces are fun, flirty, edgy, and also embody touches of femininity. A perfect mix of what every woman needs to be reminded that she is fierce, loving, and not to be messed with.
I Am Who I Am Goddess Double-Sided Rosary ($149.00)
I chose to feature the gorgeous I Am Who I Am Goddess Double Sided Rosary necklace. While all of Katia Designs' pieces are truly beautiful, this particular piece of jewelry spoke to my soul, which, I think, is the mission of Katia Designs.
This beautiful double pearl strand necklace features lots of unique elements. The bronze finished pendant showcases a gorgeous goddess print on one side and the stamped 'I Am Who I Am' print on the other. I love the symbolism of the pendant. It's such a powerful reminder for me to be myself, unapologetically. Pearls are my favorite. They're so delicate and feminine. The gorgeous pearl heart reminds me to keep those I love close to my heart and to love myself. The lovely quartz crystal is a power symbol.
This amazing necklace looks great with everything!
Paired the necklace with a simple white tee, and it looked fantastic. I received so many compliments on the necklace, too. It's been a while since I last wore a necklace that wasn't 'chewelry' for my baby. She definitely had her eyes (and hands) on this beauty, and the magnetic clasp made it possible for quick removal when she became a bit too rough with it.
This necklace is just one of many that I would love to have in my own personal jewelry collection. Katia Designs pieces are absolutely stunning in person and are a surefire way to get a conversation going. Katia Designs offers gorgeous styles of jewelry from dainty to create-your-own styles. Which one will you choose as a gift to yourself or for someone special?
