Lovelies, I do hope you are doing well and are truly madly deeply happy. Personally, my happiness throughout the years has been a struggle and consistently continues to be an issue. Which invariably takes its toll on my well-being. “Chronic depression significantly impacts well-being by causing long-lasting limitations in functioning and can worsen with co-occurring medical conditions.” When you are chronically depressed, it is essential to get the support and help that you need. Silence can destroy the beautiful, capable person you are. Leaving you feeling worthless with seemingly no way out.

Lovelies, this is another very personal blog post. However, I’m willing to put myself out there to help and inspire you. I don’t want you to feel alone. At its core, chronic depression can feel very isolating. You can feel trapped and feel there is no way out of your despair. This can then lead to suicidal thoughts. Please, if you are feeling that way, seek help. I know right now things are really bad and don’t seem to ever get better. Just remember, nothing lasts forever. This too shall pass. Yes, ya Lovelies, I’m speaking from experience. The last few years of my life have been challenging. So now I’m not writing to you, putting out the illusion that life is perfect and easy. Life is freaking hard! Sometimes just getting up to start your day can be a battle. For instance, I have had days where I stayed in bed the whole day, too depressed to get up, not wanting to go on. Even my passion for my business was not enough to sustain me. Thankfully, that feeling slowly passed, and I was on my way to my happily ever after. So I’m not going to throw in a cliche “don’t worry, be happy.” Another of my favorites is “Why can’t you just be happy? Everything will be okay.” Chronic depression is not a little sadness from day-to-day living. It can consume you, leaving nothing else. Lovelies, I’m very passionate about this topic, and I have a lot more I want to say. So stay tuned for Part 2. Enjoy the rest of your day or night wherever you are. I love you. Take care and be well. Bye for now.

 Hi there, Lovelies. I do hope all is going well in your world. Growing up, I have always been open-minded. Never really judging people, just accepting everyone for who they are. Many people are afraid of what they don’t understand and things that are different. Which in turn can develop into racism. Racism can leave you feeling lonely, and you may experience very uncomfortable experiences. “Experiences of racism act as potent stressors, leading to a wide range of negative health outcomes that can be immediate, cumulative over a lifetime, and even passed across generations.” As you all know, I’m all about love and supporting one another. Why not be the change you wish to see? 

Lovelies change in itself can disrupt your wellbeing. At times, it makes your life feel unbalanced. Nevertheless, change can be good, and sometimes you need to change to restore your happiness. If we can change the way we think and view people, and be more accepting. Perhaps we can realize that we are not all as different as we initially thought. We are all on this beautiful planet just trying to survive. We all need the basic necessities of life: food, shelter, and water. We just want love and acceptance. All the material things we accumulate in our lifetimes are not as important as knowing that we are loved and cared for. Racism can take all that love away and make a person feel uncared for and unloved, which may lead to them ending it all. Be that change, Lovelies offer a person a sweet smile. Hold the door open for someone. Sometimes it’s the little things that make this life worth living. I’m not saying we can end racism. We can brighten someone’s day and make a positive impact. Maybe that person can return the favor and brighten someone else’s day. Slowly but surely, step by step, we begin changing racism. All it takes is one person making a change. Will that person be you? Just giving you something to think about, Lovelies. As always, I love you all. Be well and take care of yourself. I will see you all next time. Bye for now.

Hello there, beautiful people from all over the world. I genuinely believe we are all beautiful in our very own special ways. We are all perfectly imperfect, and that is beautiful, truly madly deeply. I never understand racism of any kind. To me, we are all people with wonderful dreams we want to come true. Yes, I’m very aware of the negative consequences that racism can have on our well-being and overall health. “Racism negatively impacts well-being by causing chronic stress, which leads to both mental and physical health problems like anxiety, depression, heart disease, and other conditions.” Yes, Lovelies, I want you all to be well and to be comfortable in your own skin. There is no such thing as the superior race. All ethnicities are equally beautiful, each with its own unique traits.

All are welcome to our frantastic online community. We come from all over the world and come together to give each other the support we each desire. Letting each other know we are never alone. Lovelies, there is no place in our community for hate or racism. We accept each other just the way we are. In this blog, we are all the same color: the color of love. I myself am a mix of different ethnicities. I’m a proud mixed Haitian. With that said, I’m not at all trying to discredit your beautiful ethnicities. For instance, Asians are a beautiful race with their dark hair and lovely small eyes. Similarly, Russians with their beautiful pale skin, blue eyes, and blond hair are equally attractive. My own curly hair, dark skin, and eyes are also perfectly imperfect and beautiful. Lovelies, it is our unique traits that make us beautiful. Whether you have small mouths and pointed noses, or flat noses and big lips, know and realize how beautiful you are. Many of us don’t realize how much of a precious gem we genuinely are and end up having unnecessary plastic surgery. At the root of the problem is racism. With people’s hurtful words casting a dark cloud over our very own happily-ever-after. Lovelies, I have a lot more I would like to discuss about racism. So we will continue this tomorrow. At the very least, I hope to inspire you all to accept one another with sweet love. I genuinely want to make a difference and help as much as I can. I love you all. Be safe out there. If you would like to express your thoughts, feel free to utilize the comment section. Bye, I will see you all next time.

Good day, Lovelies. How are you all doing today? I truly hope all is going well. I have been pursuing my dreams for a while. Deciding to pursue my dreams and grow my two businesses, Francesca Etheart INC and Frans Online Business INC, is a decision I have never regretted. Even though it has not been easy and has caused me a lot of stress throughout the years. Failing forevermore has just never been an option for me. As I know, the cost of failure on your well-being: “Failing to achieve your dreams can significantly impact your mental and emotional well-being, potentially leading to feelings of inadequacy, anxiety, or depression.” I truly, madly, deeply believe that it’s the ability to reach rock bottom and still have the strength to reach the top that shapes your happily ever after.

Lovelies, if you know me, then you know things have not been easy for me at all. Ya, life has been seriously testing my sweet faith. As we head towards the end of the year, my inner conflict over when my time will finally be here keeps circling through my mind on the merry-go-round of broken dreams. When you don’t really have the support that you truly desire, that makes things that much harder. I desire it, but I don’t require it. When you truly realize that the only person who has to believe in your dreams is you. Yes, I do admit failure to a certain extent, but I will make the decision now to keep going and striving. Lovelies, when a dream lights up the darkest corners of your soul and gives you the strength to keep going. When your dreams are the reason that you get up each and every day, you must not abandon them. Now, that is not to say that, if you see, there is really no chance that your dreams can become a reality. Then, of course, it is wise to make the difficult decision to give up on your dreams. Nevertheless, if there is a fire burning deep within you and making your eyes the most beautiful blue, keep going, keep on keeping it on. So, Lovelies, I’m asking you to hold me accountable to stop dreaming my life and instead begin living my dreams. I want to inspire you to go after your dreams, too. No, it will not be easy, but it most certainly will be worth it. You are worth it! Your dreams are worth fighting for! I love you all, be well. I will see you all next time.

Hiya, Sweet Lovelies. One of the reasons that I have been very vocal about for creating this lovely site is to help you feel less lonely. To always remind you that you are never alone, truly madly deeply. It is no surprise that loneliness can severely impact your well-being. “Loneliness significantly harms your well-being, increasing the risk of serious physical and mental health problems, and is comparable to the health risks of smoking or obesity.” Furthermore, feeling lonely can leave you with a sense of absolute hopelessness that can, at times, feel never-ending. No one should ever feel lonely and unloved. As part of our wonderful worldwide community, you are part of an online family that genuinely cares with sweet love.

Yes, loves, I honestly care. I’m not just saying that. Everything I say here is always genuine and honest. As I said before, I always promise to be authentic with you all. I know some creators lie to their fans. I genuinely want this site to be a safe haven where you feel comfortable. You can be part of a great community that can help some with your loneliness. There have been times when I did feel lonely. Like, no one cares about me. These are the times I felt that if I were no longer here, no one would miss me. Yes, Lovely, these thoughts did cross my mind and were very scary. I want to assure you, if you ever felt that way, know you are wrong, you would be greatly missed, truly madly deeply. Sometimes we tell ourselves the biggest lies. If you think that way, reach out to someone you trust and get the help you deserve. Sometimes secrets can cause a lot of pain. So always try to talk to someone that you can trust. Don’t keep it all inside and let it devour your sweet soul. You are never alone. You always have a home here, Lovelies. I love you! You don’t have to go through it alone. Get the support you deserve right here. Take care of yourself and be well. I will see you all next time. Bye for now.

Hiya Lovelies. I most certainly hope that you are doing well and are happy. I have been going over my blog and contemplating my whole rationale for creating Franchys Daily Wellness Journal. The truth is, I have not been feeling well for quite some time. I wanted each of us to hold one another accountable. If our own wellness is not too promising, I want us to share our stories and get the support we all deserve. Our happiness is necessary to live a healthy, fulfilling life. “Happiness is a positive emotional state linked to numerous well-being benefits, including a stronger immune system, reduced stress, improved cardiovascular health, and increased mental resilience.”

Are you happy is a question I feel we should ask ourselves from time to time. Many of us are just barely getting by, going through life, not really living. We get up, brush our teeth, wash our faces, and head directly into the shower. Then our perfectly imperfect ritual for the day begins. Then, just as suddenly as it started, it has ended, and it is now bedtime. Far too many of us have lost our passion for living and are not happy. We don’t take the time to do the things we genuinely enjoy doing. With work and family responsibilities, many of us don’t have the time. So often, our wellness and mental well-being are at the very bottom of the to-do list. When it really should be our priority. Lovelies, no matter how busy you get, try to make time for yourself, even if it is for a little while. Do something that makes you happy and smile. Life is too short not to truly madly deeply. Tomorrow is never promised, so the present time is always the best time. I genuinely hope my articles are bringing some pleasure back into your lives and that you are on your way to your happily-ever-after. I really love you all and wish you the best. Be well, and I will see you all next time. Bye for now.

Good day, Lovelies. How are you all doing today? In today’s search for perfection, plastic surgery is becoming more prevalent. I remember seeing a beautiful woman about to get some work done, unaware of her own beauty. She was suffering from Body Dysmorphia Disorder. Luckily, she was being seen by a good plastic surgeon who told her that she was beautiful just the way she was and sent her off to get some therapy instead. As he knew for sure that she was suffering from Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD).”BDD (Body Dysmorphia Disorder) can seriously affect your daily life, including your work, social life, and relationships. BDD (Body Dysmorphia Disorder) can also lead to depression, self-harm, and even thoughts of suicide.”

Lovelies in my line of work, your looks are everything. You are constantly putting yourself in situations where others judge you. However, it is not just with modeling. Our society’s ideal beauty standards continually bombard us. For instance, open your Facebook, and you will see beautiful people seemingly living their best life ever. It’s no wonder people aren’t happy with how they look. There is always something too small or too big to nate pick about, which is why Body Dysmorphic Disorder is becoming more common. For me, it is my insecurity about my big belly. Even now, as I’m getting a little of my old weight back, I feel my familiar feeling of anxiety slowly creeping over me. I feel that I’m not beautiful and sexy enough. Made worse by constantly comparing myself to other women. I want all of us to be well, Lovelies. Be happy with the body that we were born with. Having a pessimistic view of our perfectly imperfect bodies can leave us with an unhappiness that seems never-ending, like an unfortunate ride on the merry-go-round of broken dreams. Such is the perfectly imperfect life of living with Body Dysmorphic Disorder. Body Dysmorphic Disorder can leave you feeling like you are not worth it, that you are not enough, and are incomplete, which may make you feel like you don’t want to be here anymore. Sweet Lovelies, do you know sometimes we tell ourselves the most significant lies? We can be our own very worst enemies. Holding ourselves back from living our dreams. As you are unable to see your true self and realize your true potential. You deserve great things, my friends. Your potential is vast and unending. I genuinely mean that. Take care of yourself. Take it one day at a time. Have a great day and be well. I love you.

Hiya, Lovelies, good day to you all. Today, I wanted to talk about something I suffered for many years without realizing. That is body dysmorphia.”Body dysmorphic disorder is a mental health condition that disrupts how you see and feel about your own body and appearance. People commonly experience negative thoughts and emotions about how they look, which can cause severe disruptions in their lives and undermine their mental and physical well-being.” In my case, my body dysmorphia began taking shape through people’s unkind bullying in school and out of school. For instance, I have strabismus or I’m cross-eyed. My peers were always so mean and made me feel I was ugly and had ugly eyes. Which later developed into an eating disorder. It is essential to be kind and caring to everyone. As you never know what they are going through.

I have been through a lot, Lovelies. Life hasn’t always been kind to me. There have been plenty of times when I cried myself to sleep. For so many years, I did not see the beautiful and capable woman that I am. Which inevitably led me to getting into a lot of unhealthy relationships. The reason I’m sharing this is because I know so many of us also suffer from body dysmorphia without even knowing it. We don’t see our true beauty and know confidently that we are worth it. For example, I remember back in college, I was in class with a gorgeous blond young woman who was very sad as she did not know how beautiful she was. I was so surprised to learn this. From looking at her, you would think she is so conceited and has all the guys going crazy over her. Unfortunately, the reality was very different. Lovelies, it doesn’t matter how others perceive us. What truly matters the most is how we perceive ourselves. To be continued with sweet love.

You are beautiful just the way you are. You are perfectly imperfect and beautiful. 🧡😘😘😍😍🧡🧡😘😘😍

Hiya there, Lovelies. I do hope that you are doing amazing and are happy. Happiness is a choice. Likewise, having a negative mindset is a decision that we make that can impact our perfectly imperfect lives forevermore. Furthermore, a negative attitude can have disastrous effects on your well-being. “A negative mindset can harm your wellbeing by negatively impacting mental health through increased anxiety and depression, and physical health by causing chronic stress, which can lead to issues like high blood pressure and a weakened immune system.” People like to say think positively and be happy. However, is it really that simple?

Lovelies, I’m going to be frank. I’m always authentic with you all, and I promise that will never change. I genuinely believe my life experiences can truly help you all. Sure, it is a bit risky pouring my heart out to you all. However, it is essential to remember that whatever comes from the heart will always lead you right to your happily ever after. For me, my path to my happily ever after has been incredibly steep due to my negative mindset. It’s like a domino effect, seriously. One bad thought leads to another bad thought, which inevitably leads to another bad thought, so on and so forth. Then comes the stress and excessive worrying. Which, in turn, affects my well-being and happiness. Many of us take our happiness and well-being for granted. We think, what is one little negative thought going to do? The answer is that one negative thought can mean the difference between living your dream and just dreaming your life. Lovelies, you will become what you think about. If all you have are negative thoughts, then nothing positive will happen. Yes, it is really that simple. Sort out your negative thoughts and live a happier, fulfilling life. Choose to be the best version of yourself and live each day as if it were your last. Lovelies, I’m currently trying to change my negative thoughts. So that I can be successful and help many people. We are a family here, truly. Never hesitate to share what is on your mind. I really do care. Have a lovely rest of your day or night wherever you are in the world. I love you and want you to be well. Take care, see you next time. Bye.

Good day, Lovelies. I hope your day is going well thus far. My day is going okay, just trying to make the most of my perfectly imperfect day. Similarly, many people are trying to make the most of their living situations. As rent continues to rise, many families are experiencing housing insecurity. With some fearing becoming homeless. “Homelessness severely impacts wellbeing through both physical and mental health issues, including increased risks for chronic illnesses, infectious diseases, mental health conditions like depression and anxiety, and substance use disorders.” It is no wonder it is one of the world’s most significant problems.

“Yes, homelessness is considered one of the biggest problems in the world, as it affects hundreds of millions of people, is a violation of human rights, and is linked to severe health and social costs.” I wanted to share that quote to show how big a problem homelessness is. For instance, there are stories of people working a full-time job and still not able to afford housing. They work long hours and come home to their tent. I don’t know about you, Lovelies, but I don’t just like to complain and not do my part. One day, when my situation gets better, I want to do whatever I can to help others who are currently facing homelessness. We all deserve a roof over our heads and a permanent place to put our things—a sanctuary to call home and lay our heads at night. I’m not yet sure how I’ll go about helping with homelessness. I’m just going to follow my heart and take it one step at a time. If we all do our parts, I’m confident we can accomplish a lot of great things. Lovelies, you can do your part by simply offering a kind smile and not judging. Sometimes, just showing someone you care can go a long way. I truly, madly, deeply care about you all and want the very best for you all. Take care of yourself. I love you. I will see you all next time.
