Honouring Sariah 🌹 moe mai rā sis 🥺🕊️
To be asked to go to hospice and be part of her final moments of care and prep was an honour I will always hold close.
My light actually stopped working during her pedi so it was a two day appointment, how blessed I got to be in her presence for two days. In those days I did what I always do and I showed up as myself. I tried my best to hold a space that felt light, warm and familiar. To laugh with her, to be bubbly, to get to know her and her whānau, to keep things feeling as normal as possible while still holding full respect for everything her and her whānau were going through.
What I witnessed was a wahine & whānau who carried so much strength, humour, aroha and courage.
This mahi will always mean more to me than nails.
@sariahnezbit , I’m so grateful I got to do your nails, to pamper you and connect with you. Although a short time, it’s a moment I’ll always hold very close to my heart.
Forever a french tip baddie sis 🕊️🤍
Day in the life as a māmā & nail tech + time stamps ✨
Been a little MIA lately since moving, just finding our rhythm in a new routine ☺️ tbh it’s been allll go, go, go e te whānau early mornings, busy days, late nights so when I do slow down, I’m tired af lol. Just being real with you guys 😩
I’m still figuring things out but I’m so grateful to have a business that works between my babies. Fully booked and supported by my amazing clients even when I’ve stepped back from mahi means the world! 🤍
Creating a life where I can be present for my babies and still build something for myself, whānau that’s everything to me ✨

Price ranging from $4.50-$11?! Say lesss 😍 @tamedessentials for legit perfumes and the perfect size to fit in your handbag. Expensive scents that don’t break the bank ummm YESSSS 😍😍😍💸
From one small business to another, I know how far a little support can go. Behind every small business is someone taking a risk so I see you girl! And I respect the hustle n grind 🤍✨
