Dear @matildawirtavuori ❤️ You are such an in Dear @matildawirtavuori ❤️

You are such an inspiration to many, myself included. Your remarkable journey to being crowned 👑 Miss Finland 2024 and achieving the historic titles of Miss Universe Europe 🤩 and Miss Universe Middle East 🤩 is a testament to your resilience and dedication. 

Your advocacy for mental health 🧠 and your mission to support others facing similar challenges highlight your compassionate spirit. 🥰 Thank you for being a beacon 🔦of hope and a role model for countless individuals.🙏🏻

Thank you @invited.finland @missfinlandofficial for organizing the event to celebrate Matilda @ravintolateatteri and  @sunnevasjogren for your kind words of her that I think we all agreed on ❤️

P.S. Did you know I was once invited to participate in a beauty pageant here in Finland during the mid-90s? It wasn’t Miss Finland if I remember correctly, but some other competition. I even submitted the photos (and still have them 😅) but ultimately chose to focus on my studies.

📣 Ad/Mainos @catteco 📣Miksi luonnollisia hiu 📣 Ad/Mainos @catteco 📣Miksi luonnollisia hiustenhoitotuotteita? 🌿✨ Olen pitkään halunnut testata luonnollisia vaihtoehtoja hiustenhoidossa, ja nyt sain tilaisuuden kokeilla @catteco Tyrni shampoopalaa ja Lähde hoitoainepalaa. ➡️ Tässä kolme hyvää syytä, miksi sinunkin kannattaa antaa niille mahdollisuus!

1️⃣ Hellää hoitoa hiuksille ja hiuspohjalle. Tyrni sopii erityisesti talvikuivalle hiuspohjalle, ja hoitoainepala tekee latvoista helposti selvitettävät. Testatusti!!
2️⃣ Kevyt ja miellyttävä tuoksu – Ei liian voimakasta, vaan juuri sopivan raikasta. Iso plus!
3️⃣ Ekologinen vaihtoehto – Ei muovipakkauksia, vaan kauniit pahvikääreet, jotka kunnioittavat luontoa 💚

Näistä tuli heti mun suosikit! 🥰🥰

Oletko sinä kokeillut luonnollisia hiustenhoitotuotteita? Mikä on sinun suosikkisi? 💬

Why try natural haircare? 🌿✨ I got to test Catteco’s Sea Buckthorn Shampoo Bar and Lähde conditioner Bar, and here’s why you should too:
1️⃣ Gentle on scalp and hair. Tested!
2️⃣ Light, fresh scent. Big plus!
3️⃣ Eco-friendly, no plastic waste!

I knew I had to change when... 💭 I like to be I knew I had to change when... 💭

I like to be able to stay connected to my audience because together it's more fun 🤗 So recently, I asked my followers what they’d like me to share, and someone suggested I continue sharing my wise advice. So here’s a big one from my heart to yours ❤️

For years, I said "yes" to every exciting opportunity, pushing myself to the limit. It felt amazind... Until it didn’t. The stress of juggling too many projects and the constant self-criticism for not finishing everything on time ⏳ became overwhelming. I tripped in my own feet so to speak...

In the past five years, I’ve finally learned that saying no doesn’t mean giving up 🚫. It means focusing on what truly matters. Saying "No" allows me to protect my dreams and direct my energy toward my goals 🎯, instead of scattering it everywhere.

So, because I want keep staying connected to you all I'm now asking from you... Where are you going? 🚀 What is your dream? Let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear. 💬💛

This post is part of #AgeGratefully2024 challenge started by @age.fabulous and @moxieandwit  Thank you for keeping the flag up for us 🙏🏻🤩

Hey, I finally made a my day video 🤩 I kept on Hey, I finally made a my day video 🤩 I kept on forgetting to take video footage of the day, but then went back and did it so that I got something documented.
 
And trust me during this day, there was a lot more happening than normally which would be wake up, work, go to bed 😂

I feel like the days when you have hobbies or you actually go somewhere else those are a little  bit more interesting than just a normal work day 🤔

Then again, that’s also life 🥰

Have you ever done a my day video? And did you find making one?
