Hi!! Long time no talk. I’ve been 100% off my blog and YouTube and this account for about a year and I wanted to just update that I’m honestly not sure how blogging fits into my life at the moment. I’m keeping this account, my website, and my channel up for now, and I hope to come back to it someday if I find a new niche where I fit.
My life has taken quite a few 180° turns since both starting and leaving law school and starting a new full time job last year. Kristen Shane is still very much a part of my heart and soul, but I just don’t know what genre of content I want to share at the moment while working at home every day. I love the people I’ve met here and I miss seeing your faces, I just have been limiting the amount of time I spend on social medias for my own brain space. I’m still working hard on @lemonlilyco even when I’m not on Insta, and being a dog mom to my Peach is a dream come true. I wish you all the best and I hope you keep growing as best you can, too 💕
See ya later (for now), Kristen Shane

When you get a call that you could save a life, wh

When you get a call that you could save a life, what can you say but, “Yes”?!
Five years ago I joined the @bethematch bone marrow registry with a simple cheek swab at a @dmfsu college event. And recently, I became a match and donor for a patient with leukemia. I donated a unit of stem cells and plasma by IV (alternative to bone marrow donation by surgery) to give my patient a chance at a healthy immune system.
This process was scary and painful and a lot to handle. But nothing compares to what these patients battle every day. I would gladly do it all again and more. Any person only has a 30% chance of matching with a family member for a bone marrow donation. Most donors are anonymous matches. You never know who could need you. It could be your mother, your sister, your cousin, or a fellow human whose cells match yours and needs this chance at recovery… Please visit @bethematch and BeTheMatch.org for how you can help save a life.
Please if you are able, join the registry. Donate blood. Be compassionate. Be kind. We can all do a little more to bring a lot more hope to our world.
Thank you to @dmfsu @bethematch and @giftoflifemarrowregistry for making all of this possible for me and the millions of patients out there. My life is forever changed. 💙💚💙💚

I am 1 in 9,000,000 🧬
I donate blood. I’m a registered organ donor. But it’s not enough. In 2017 I joined the Be the Match bone marrow registry through a college event, never thinking I would get a call. But two months ago, I did.
I am a match for an adult with leukemia, who needs a bone marrow donation. I am their match. In a few short weeks, I’ll be donating PBSCs via IV (kind of like the process for donating blood platelets…) to give this patient a new, healthy immune system. It’s kind of like their and my Stem cells are pieces from two different puzzles that would fit in the same slot 🧩
Matching for bone marrow is much more complicated than blood typing (which I didn’t know). It’s more closely related to your DNA and there are infinite combinations of the genes needed to match for donation.
There is only a 30% chance that any person will have viable bone marrow match within their family, which is why the Be the Match registry is so important.
There are over 9 million registered donors on the @bethematch US registry, and even more worldwide and with other similar organizations.
All it takes is a simple cheek swab to join the registry. And to potentially save a life.
I am healthy, willing, and able, and I will do anything I can to bring hope and health to this patient. You never know who could need a transplant. It could be you, a sibling, a loved one, a friend, or a stranger. But you could save a life.
Please visit @bethematch or bethematch.org for more info 💙 I’d be happy to share more about my experience and upcoming donation! We can all do our part, no matter how big or small, to help make the world a little more full of kindness, hope, and compassion.

Happy coffee day from me, Dunkin, & Princess Peach!☕️💗
There is not enough coffee to get me through this day lol. Not many new pictures of myself to share lately because my camera roll is all puppy pictures!! But having a puppy around again is the absolute best 🥰

I hope something makes you smile today ♡ trust me, I need the reminder as much as anyone. But when you call out the good, even in the littlest things, the good gets bigger and easier to find. 🌸

Just another post of me missing Disney & appreciating my favorite movie ✨ Based on your personality, what Disney princess or character would you be?? I like to think I’d be most like Belle 📚🌹📖…. Maybeee plus some sass like Lilo 🤷🏼‍♀️🤣

My MO is painting my nails the same blush pink shade over and over…💅🏻 shade is ‘Savasan-ahhh’ from Sally Hansen 💓
I’ve been painting my nails pink for as long as I can remember 😂 but recently I am the biggest @kissproducts convert (not sponsored at all, just a big fan) and I love being able to have pretty nails that I can do at home!! I started using press-ons last year when I was sewing face masks for @lemonlilyco full-time and my natural nails got wrecked from using my hands so much. But I’m not switching back!! These are super sturdy and can last up to a month with good nail glue.
My nails are my one beauty thing I always do for myself!
Fun fact: I used to do fun DIY nail art on myself in high school. But lately, I’ve just been doing ez pz plain pink lol

I read AND watched Peter Pan this weekend and I will say…. It may be one of the few movies I prefer to the book! The book was…. interesting… as so many classic/Disney movies are! Wouldn’t recommend the book lol. But Tinker Bell’s sass is always entertaining ✨
Missing Disney lots on this Monday! What’s your favorite classic Disney movie?
