I've gotten overwhelmed on Instagram more than once by everything I'm supposedly supposed to be doing to be more successful, a better parent, more fashionable, more everything. These are the accounts that help me stay calm, trust my journey, and drop...
I know the name says business, but I follow it for the reminders that I can build big things on my own terms and my own timeline. Their posts about women cheering each other on always land at exactly the right moment.

Soft words and dreamy visuals that feel like taking a deep breath. Christle's posts remind me that healing and growing take time, and that everything comes in its own season.
@bloomwithchristle
Jess writes short, honest reflections on healing that stop my scroll in the best way. Reading her reminds me that I'm allowed to grow and let go at my own pace.
@jesssbaird
My daily dose of encouragement for the hard days. Whenever my feed starts making me feel behind, one of their posts pulls me right back to what actually matters: protecting my peace and my energy.
@powerofpositivity
Gentle, faith filled reminders for women, all in the prettiest pink. This one helps me let go of the pressure to have it all figured out and trust that God's timing is better than mine.
@herheartknew
Simple wisdom about letting go, self compassion and being present. Tiny Buddha is my reminder to slow down and stop comparing my chapter one to someone else's chapter twenty.
@tinybuddhaofficial
A faith community full of reminders that I'm already chosen and loved, no matter what my to do list says. Their posts give me permission to feel grateful and tired at the same time.
@chosenandfreeco
Quotes for the moments when I don't have the words myself. They're mostly about love and life's ups and downs, and they always leave me feeling understood and a little more hopeful.
@love.quotes
Soft thoughts in lowercase that feel like reading a friend's diary. This account reminds me that becoming who I want to be is a slow, gentle process, and every new month is a fresh start.

This one is mine! I started Glowing Essence recently as my own little corner for daily reminders to bet on yourself, protect your peace and trust God through the process. If these accounts help you too, come grow with me.

Progress over perfection is their whole motto, and I need that reminder more than I'd like to admit. Simple, calming quotes that help me let go of what I can't control and be a little kinder to myself.
