YOU ARE GOLD πβ¨β‘οΈβ β Yano how people do golden birthdays for when their age matches their birth date? β β Well, today, weβre celebrating 32k while being 32 years old π€£β β Itβs been a while since weβve done an intro and since there are so many new faces, letβs get to know each other, shall we? β β ππ» Weβre Chels and HJ (Hannah Jayne π) and weβre soon-to-be wives living our best lives with our fur babies (and hopefully human children one day π ) in the Carolinas. β β π We met over a decade ago, but in the magical, fate-like way of life, have officially been together for three years (ish) π€£ β β π°π»ββοΈπ€΅π»ββοΈ Weβre making it ~official official~ and tying the knot on the beach this September! β β π«π₯Ύ If weβre not at home, building our cozy life in the 1930βs bungalow we renovated, weβre likely hiking, at the beach, or traveling somewhere cool where we can experience a mix of both of those things π€£β β π§π»ββοΈ Weβre big on sharing life: the raw, real, vulnerable, to help others feel seen in their valleys and have hope that one day, there will be a better tomorrow. We share our day-to-day, things we love, places we go, and inner thoughts to inspire and increase visibility for the LGBTQ+ community. β β πͺ΄ Weβre also big on wellness. And when we say wellness, we mean holistic wellness. And we both approach this differently! Youβll notice youβll see me starting every day with a yoga practice and hitting the gym or going on a run. Hannah starts her days taking it slow. We both prioritize mental health, healing, growing, addressing our traumas, and aligning ourselves with things that make us feel like our very best selves. β β π If youβve been here a while, thank you! Weβre so happy youβre here. If youβre new here, welcome. Weβre just getting started! β β Introduce yourselves in the comments! Letβs make friends π₯°
Donβt forget to take moments to take it all in β¨πβ β As yβall know, things have been crazy town here between all of the exciting changes, work overload, and prepping for a lot of travel. β β One thing that weβve been practicing is taking moments to just ~be~ π for us, that looks like: β β π taking in a moment to soak up the sun β π coregulating (what we call charging π ) through long, tight hugs and deep breaths together β π sitting outside and listening to the birds β π looking at the stars at night β β This has been so important for our mental health. What do you do to slow down?
THIS is our good luck charm β¨πββ ββ The boilermakers are our favorite thing, so we made up this mocktail recipe called the bubbly boiler to ring in their trip to the championship last night π«§ββ ββ The secret ingredient is pineapple juice π because since they won the elite eight game and Hannah had her pineapple sprite from our Easter movie, we figured that was the key to another win π ββ ββ Hereβs the rundown: ββ A splash of ββ @sprite (we like zero sugar) ββ strawberry lemon @drinkpoppi ββ @zevia ginger ale ββ and og @frescausa ββ ββ Heavy on the @drinkwynk (we split the lime tall can half and half) ββ ββ Splash of fresh pineapple juice ββ ββ Andddd top with fruit of your choice! We used fresh raspberries, lemon, and lime πββ ββ Whatβs your favorite drink ever?
When I say βboiler upβ I just donβt mean βboiler upβ π€πβ β I mean Purdue was my dream college, where I learned to be who I truly am, where I met some of the most important people in my life (Hannah being one of them).β β So, when I say βboiler upβ it means so much to me. Here are the bits and pieces of Purdue memories scattered throughout my time before, during, and after my time there. Home πβ β No judgement, but who do you have winning!?
Theyβve been in the sperm donor business for 30 years and have supplied donor sperm to patrons in over 100 countries. Another super cool aspect of the Cryos sperm bank is the ability to reserve donor sperm. Reservations can be made for future use, whether that be securing that donorβs sperm until youβre ready to start trying next year, or you want to use the same donorβs sperm multiple times to produce genetic siblings. Much like the sperm bank, the egg bank allows reservation of donor eggs and provides adult photos of ID Release donors.
LGBTQ+ visibility means a lot to us, especially as content creators. And little by little, story by story, itβs not so unfamiliar anymore. Pride month is the perfect time to create content specific to LGBTQ+ issues and the community at large. To help content creators get a head start, we created a 30 Days of Pride Content Prompt Guide!
Between trying to continue to stay open with adjusted operations and navigating things like the Small Business Protection Program, theyβve had their hands full. Small business Instagram accounts can now add a sticker that will allow customers to purchase a gift card directly from the businessβs Instagram Story. For restaurants or businesses providing food products, the order food Instagram story sticker allows customers to place an order for delivery straight from the businessβs Instagram Story. If youβre a business or manage a businessβs social media account, let us know what you think when you try them!
The Chels + Ky brand was born from my craving to take our story, our life, our wins, and our struggles, and share them with the world to inspire and promote a life of health, acceptance, and being your most authentic self. Through a strategic and consistent approach, we found our people β letβs just say the βChels + Ky dynasty,β and have continued to increase engagement and spread our messaging of health, love, and authenticity with the world. We figure that if some of the people in our circle have questions, are dealing with roadblocks, and could use some insight/tips, we might as well utilize our blog to reach more people who are looking for a resource like us. It just means weβll be adding a brand + marketing educational category to the Chels + Ky blog/content so we can share our knowledge to help you reach your people and tell your story.
