Today’s topic: YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! Let that sink in and hopefully bring a smile to your face.

I had the good fortune to meet Matthew Hoffman, the artist behind the #yabsticker and tour his studio last December. If you haven’t seen this message and stickers all over the world, it is time you should! A simple message that can change your day!
