Maybe her spouse likes that hospital feeling when he gets home from work.

Take a break because of flooding and Becky is still going strong, ROFL
First- Becky & I are the same age. We are both poufy from perimenopause. You get poufy during menopause because you know we have these things called hormones just wrecking our figures until they decide to stop doing that, lol. It sucks but it happens. We will all survive. Why I am writing this? I am little bit more tinier than Becky because of my frame size. Not shaming her. I don't wear a medium in WalMart's clothing. It's not happening. Even when I was super tiny medium was not happening. I don't think WalMart understands the word medium. Have you seen that new line where they actually have written what size you really are but what size you should buy? It is very confusing, lol. Becky- YOU ARE NOT A MEDIUM! Stop that! It perpetuates a bad body image and you pride yourself on being a role model. Act like one! Your figure is fine, you are pretty. Enjoy it!
I am not going to shame her home. It's her dream home. I like smaller homes. Big homes make me nervous, lol. Plus, my DH is in construction and ladies like her keep my DH in construction. So bring it on! I am not being snarky. I am sure some of the girls here are like "I am too scared to say that I appreciate her building that big home!" You know how many times teams have to go back to do work on homes like that? A lot! My DH is doing one right now and it's going to be like eight times he has to go back. Eight times and footage too! It is much appreciated after try to recuperate from flooding. I am sure the lighting guys who sold her that light are doing a happy jig, lol. I heard Arizona construction industry is crazy pricey. A kitchen remodel that is $10,000 is $40,000. I don't know if that has changed but my DH & I did think of relocating because of the hot construction industry down there.
I wish she wouldn't be so show-off with it on her IG. I get it if she is proud. I think she is using her home as part of her IG influencer so she can have help paying for it. The way she is doing it come off as insincere and show off.
Her home is not my style. I am sure she would hate mine. I do like the blue tile in her kitchen though. She into classic clean lines and I am into Bohemian Moroccan.
I am so ragey about the minimalism trend. I was a minimalist before it was cool and it was frowned upon. When I bought my home I started adding things to it. I waited so long to have a real home that I actually like it comfy and all mine with my pretty happy things. I don't clutter that is a difference. Becky doing podcasts on minimalism? That is just kind of eye popping to me. Even though I am trending towards maximalism, my home could fit into her kitchen and that includes my craft room!
Becky I have been self sufficient for years. Don't need your help. I am good. Thank you.

So now Becky is hanging with the Movara family at her house. Man, BH clings on!
BH also told her daughter if she’d do the 5K with all of them she would take her on a vacation to California. Apparently PL app sales are better than we thought. Super relatable! “Hey child, run/walk a 5K with me and I’ll take you on a vacation!” My kid would have gotten ice cream! 😂

Interesting that a few days ago we noticed how none of her “girls” were around but now suddenly there’s stories with Wendy in them.

Honestly BH might not have even known about the update. She seems pretty detached from the business part. I knew my gut was right when it told me to stock up on my favorite divided page protectors and albums before they were gone forever.

Lol The M-F is super stressful so her “girls” recharge on the weekend. Why they do releases (and they can claim they don’t know when they are coming out but that’s BS- they may not know the minute, but they have a window) headed into the weekend boggles my mind.

LOL @ Becky preaching about minimalism while moving into a McMansion she's buying loads of stuff for. Ok, gurl, I feel like you're a true expert on the matter. You know, when you guys mentioned the $2000 light fixture for her piano room (shall we discuss how nouveau riche this house is?), my brain immediately went to: "Oooh, Becky's investing for future vintage sales, smart! I wonder what she got for that budget. Artemide holds its value so well. What's around $2000 at Artemide these days? Mercury Soffitto? Gosh, if she bought the Mercury Soffitto, I'll be so impressed. That is one heck of a statement piece to make work. But come to think of it, with a baby grand and a very simple look, white walls and all, it could actually work. Man, Becky might impress me with her décor investments." OH MY, HOW WRONG I WAS. Of course, BH didn't invest in pieces that will likely sell very well in the vintage market a couple of decades down the line... Why does my brain go there? Ever the freakin' optimist, I swear. To a fault.

sleepingbooty I was thinking the same thing about her light fixture. My mind went there too, lol. I don't know why I thought she would purchase something with a resale value or future historical value. I have never ever seen Becky purchase anything unless it was a trend. She loves her trends. She doesn't love trends that hold value. I bet she will be tired of that lamp in five years because it's not trendy and buy some other trend. Hopefully she recycles. Her lamp dealer will be joyful to see her again. Good for him/her. I do like it you called her nouveau riche. I know I am terrible. I grew up in old money. We were the old money that had no money, lol. That happened a lot especially after the Depression. I did grow up in old money values until my Father passed away. I know some of our new rich girls hate us right now. There is a different in becoming wealthy by hard work or luck (lottery) and somebody who is nouveau riche.

Detached from the business. Detached from scrapbooking. Detached from minimalism. Detached from reality.

Like BeckyH can’t make a move without BeckyP’s approval.

Becky H said Becky P's daughter told them to get the same bathing suit. Not that it makes the situation any less sister wifey. This discussion is making me want to watch Big Love again, jussayin'.

I don’t get sister wives vibes, I just think Becky Proudfit is a know-it-all and Becky Higgins lets her run her over. On the podcast about memory keeping, the wrong Becky was doing all the talking.

I agree with you. Becky has lost her way in the crafting community and I think she’s feeling that. She is overcompensating by posting about her new home/podcast/whatever else she can shill on her Instagram account... anything but scrapbooking. She also comes across as a bored housewife. Most people move without a lot of fuss. I don’t understand why her move is so special and requires it’s own Instagram account? Just move already and get back to making scrapbook products! I am about to unfollow all of her accounts and be done with it. Seeing her post about $12 Walmart dresses and $2000 light fixtures is so annoying. Becky P. comes across as disingenuous and obnoxious. Maybe because she was a Disney princess she thinks she’s extra special? I don’t know but something about her rubs me the wrong way.

Since reflexology has been mentioned, I feel compelled to put on my Out-with-the-woo hat and point out that it's a pseudo-science. If you want to go to feel relaxed, go ahead. But it's just glorified massage meaning it can be beneficial but not in the way it is presented. No scientific evidence has been found that massaging one part of your body will magically heal a completely different one. As per this peer-reviewed (and peer-reviewing) study and many others:

Yep I agree unfortunately her followers seem to think it's the big box stores, and us not wanting physical product which isn't the case at all. She just doesn't listen to what people want.

Not to mention her needing to get a pick-me-up-trip every so often to deal w/her oh-so-difficult life: Rome, Movara, now CA. What a trooper she is! As compared to, say, the single mom w/two kids and the crappy-wage job that she has to take a bus to and from every day, being away from her kids for 10 hours at a time, etc., etc. But, I guess her god loves Becky best! Blessed, y'all.

“Prior to my life changing experience”. My god. She would probably kill herself if she had to live my life. I say that because I’m tough as nails but this year has been pretty bleak for even me. More than once I’ve questioned whether I was actually needed by those I’ve devoted my life to since they’ve all managed to make me feel pretty damn useless lately. Like does anyone else throat punch their husband when he complains about the hot meal they’ve fixed? Just me? I officially hate her.

I'm sad for you and I totally agree that so rubbed me the wrong way too! She has absolutely no concept of stress, anxiety or what a life changing experience is. She doesn't even know what a legit anxiety attack is let alone what it's like to suffer with it.

I’m still trying to figure out what was so stressful about her business life?! It’s not like she needed the income and the house would go into foreclosure if she failed. She treated it more like a fun project where she got to play office with her besties. That of course is a sure way to send your business off the rails, which she did. Now she can pretend she’s had to “give it up” due to the stress and anxiety of her work, work, #girlboss life, instead of facing the reality that she tanked her business because she had no clue how to run one.
