- hey boos 🫶🏾,
this week has been such an amazing week! from investing in a pilates studio membership, having some girl time and finally shopping for new clothes and shoes?! i deserve. i honestly work way too hard to not enjoy the fruits of my labor.
linking most of my shopping finds below for you! anyways, i'm really excited for the fall season here in Atlanta and using this season as a time for me to reset and find my footing again. i've been really self-conscious about my weight gain and i'm trying to be more gentle with myself and simply make the time for moving my body once every day.
let this be your reminder to give yourself some grace and space when life feels like a bit too much. you'll find your pace again-life isn't a race.
sending you big, big hugs. i hope your week is going amazing! take care all ways, always. enjoy! xo ❣️

Hey Amani, I feel you on the difference in the weather here in Atlanta. I moved here from L.A. too about a year ago and this humidity is stifling. I was in the Antelope Valley (Palmdale/Lancaster) which is the desert and it wasn't as hot as it is here. Guess we have to get used to it, I lived in Chicago during my grade school years and it was very hot and humid there. But as a kid I never noticed it. Loved the Vlog, keep up the good work.
u seem so happy! I am happy for you!
Your kitchen is absolutely stunning 🧡
Thanks for always sharing great content! Thanks for the Planta recommendation; I went to Planta Queen in Manhattan and it was really good! I need to try the Planta in Williamsburg. I plan to try the one in ATL when I’m there at the end of September.
Continue to make great content and take care of yourself. Self care in all areas is really important for all areas including mental health. Also be kind to yourself. You have plenty of time to do great things and enjoy the ride! ❤😊
I love those Walmart bowls I have the black ones and they are really good quality
Omg you are so funny!! lol that salad looks really good 😅
Omg, I’m loving it!😊
Everything seems so relaxing in Atl
Makes me wanna visit again! It’s been too long🙌🏾✨
Love all those purchases at the end too! Really cute stuff!
Thanks so much babesss! 😊
I am a huge fan of the plate/bowl. You can do so much more with them.
This is my first time tuning into your vlog was that your sister or friend? ❤❤it's giving me healthy friendship. I really enjoyed your vlog I only want to see you winning on your YT journey. Take Care ❤
Loving the content…Do you have the link for the Pilates studio??

This is my first video of yours and I've subscribed. And I have to tell you to AT LEAST get a laser consultation. I have totally forgotten what it's like to maintain and regrow hair down there. Byyyyeeee 💜

Mani! Happy Sunday luv.
Hi Amani. I love your videos. I watch them on Sundays, it's my self care. I'm getting a new place, may I ask where you got the teapot ?
hi babes!! thank you so much for watching! it's from Amazon! check my Amazon storefront or my LTK shop!
🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭 well let the preference be known then!!! 😂
I am so happy you are feeling better and getting on your ZOOM!!
Hey!! What was that game you were playing poolside?
Hey boo love the Vlog 🤎
Love your videos! Where was the vegan pizza from?
I know I'm late in this vlog what was the name of the card ? I started at the beginning almost caught up great vlogs.
Loveee your vids!!!
Laser hair removal is painful but it's doable with numbing gel! My esthetician put it's on about 30 minutes before the actual treatment on my bikini and it works wonders.
YOU ARE MY INSPIRATION
Girrrrl I went and got my wax on this past Monday and it hurt so badly! I’ve been getting waxes for 6 years and it still hurts every time. Plus the lady was going so freaking fast. I can appreciate the timeliness, BUT please don’t hurt my kitty like geesh!
I dread getting waxed every time. My coworker told me to try drinking a coke and taking an aspirin right before. I haven’t tried it yet. Maybe I will.
That’s a nice roof top pool area. Is that at your apartment?
loved how you just did what felt good to you! what are the name of Nike shoes you purchased?
LMAO nvm, I went through the description links too fast. thank you for linking!
of course boo!
Baby girl. I hope u good. I know the move has revealed another emotional set back, but I know this will soon pass. I’m going through the same thing.
only 30seconds in. such a lovely intro 🥰🥰
aww, thank you so much!!
Laser is not excruciating, but be prepared for some stinging pain, because you're burning hair follicles. it hurts more if you have big concentration of hair follicles in particular spots.
🤭 giiirrrrrlieee… I feel you! ♥️♥️
Been waiting😊❤❤❤
Damn I’m late. Loved it. ❤
loved the video!
Laser is far less painful than waxing. I've been getting laser done for years in my entire body and it's nowhere near as painful as waxing. 😅
Those earrings ❤
Subscribed🥰
Where did you get your tortoise glasses?
warby parker, but they don't make this style anymore unfortunately 🥺
Oh gawddd😩😫 they are fuego! Too cute
I'm trying that chicken pesto tonight!
how did you like it?! 👀
@@AmaniRakeia got it last night, and we loved it! 😋
Beautiful
Okay my YT daughter. Love love love..
