YO. I felt inspired by @hundredblog (what else is new?) and wanted to introduce myself - the fun, the silly, all of it. I’m Ava, impromptu singer of songs about nothing + everything. I am attempting for the millionth time to learn to balance work + self care. Each time I try, I get a little bit better. I’d rather stay home than go to a party. If you leave me alone with a pint of dairy-free @benandjerrys I will likely eat it all. I started public speaking over the past year and want to be the next @gabbybernstein (I love you Gabby) and I really freaking love to be able to share the raw and vulnerable truth as a form of connecting with everyone else. Because the truth is...at 16, my mom, sister and I were evicted and our car was repossessed. We were homeless and I remember my mom would go to the food bank on Saturdays to get us food for the week. If we can climb out of that fuckin’ hole, you can too. I’m still healing, but thanks to my podcast @thealchemizedlife, I get to chat with incredibly inspiring humans + heal a little bit more each time. I hope when you listen, you heal too. Today, I get to pack up my house and prep for our move to LA on March 1. I couldn’t be more excited for this new chapter and to share it with all of YOU. #TheAlchemizedLife
Hi guys! I haven’t been posting much on here, mostly because it’s been raining nonstop, but also because I totally forgot what self care was over the past two weeks. Anyone else get into those funks of going, going, going and giving, giving, giving? I LOVE IT - and because I love it I have to remind myself that it is necessary for me to care for myself if I want to continue doing this work. In yoga today, @reunifyyoga spoke on loving yourself and showing yourself compassion, and it resonated SO deeply with me because of the past few weeks. It’s not sustainable to work constantly. It’s not selfish to pause and take time for yourself. When we are compassionate to ourselves and fully love ourselves, were able to bring more compassion to the world around us. PERIOD. Okay, evening rant over - take care of yourselves, hustle is cool but being alignment is even cooler. LOVE YOU! #TheAlchemizedLife
What emoji does Penny resemble in this picture? Food is obviously very important to Penny and I, but lately I’ve been STRUGGLING to find the time to make food. I’ve noticed myself unintentionally going until 2-3 without eating. It doesn’t feel good being on the go without nourishment and I know that we all do it from time to time so I wanted to share a few favorite snacks that have made it easier for me: @perfectbar peanut butter and dark chocolate chips (my ride or die) @traderjoes roasted almonds (keep in car) @emmysorganics coconut and peanut butter (DELISH) @plated when i want a full meal but am too lazy to plan it or go grocery shopping Any other tips for busy ladies needing a snack? COMMENT BELOW! #TheAlchemizedLife
We didn’t elope BUT how dreamy is this photo? Still amazed that I get to work with such talented people + brands. Since the wedding is coming up so soon, I’m going to start sharing everyone that I am working with to build out my perfect fairytale wedding for all you brides-to-be. ✨ Let’s talk DRESSES. From the moment I got engaged, I knew me + my girls would be wearing @bhldn. The dresses are so romantic and available for so many budgets (bridesmaids included). I am so excited to debut my actual dress from #BHLDN, but for now, you get a sneak peak at their Spring 2019 line! PS: You can get free shipping (ahem, bridesmaids @lilsagnaa @doolat) using AVAFREESHIP until 2/11. #TheAlchemizedLife #BHLDNBride Photo: @pinkfeatherphotography Hair: @corieamberthair Makeup: @muabykatie Flowers: @watersignefloral Prince Charming: @corey.mccomb
The very first wellness/personal development book I ever read was @jeffkrasno’s Wanderlust: A Modern Yogi’s Guide to Discovering Your Best Self. It totally rocked my world and exposed me to the community that is @wanderlustfest - a community I’ve called home. I can’t think of anything other than GRATITUDE + PURE EXCITEMENT, when I share with all of you that I will officially be teaching the Zenergy Yoga Experience and the Mindset Cleanse at their upcoming Seattle festival this May 18-19! AH! I’m honored to serve the community that has served me, my friends and my family over the years - if you’ve never experienced #WanderlustFestival, now is the time, because ya girl is bringing out ALL THE THINGS to make this the most memorable experience ever. Head to @wanderlustfest for more details! #TheAlchemizedLife #Grateful
