I Don’t Have to Wait for the Whole Dream
Good morning, beautiful ☀️✨ I have a pretty massive vision for my life. And when I say massive, I mean MASSIVE. I can see this beautiful family compound where my siblings have homes, where we gather and live life together, where there is land and a stable because my sister and niece love horses, and…

What Else Could I Say Yes To?
Good morning, beautiful. ☀️✨ A couple of weeks ago, I started asking myself a really simple question: What are all the yummy things around me that I have never taken advantage of simply because I never looked for them? I thought about my undergraduate years living in Sonoma County, California, literally in wine country. Napa…

When I Dishonor My Own Peace
Good morning, beautiful. ☀️✨ Earlier this week, on Taco Tuesday, what was supposed to be a simple couples lunch date with one of my best friends and her husband turned into a lesson I did not know I needed again. My husband had planned the outing, but somewhere along the way the plans changed, and…

Say Yes and Learn as You Go
Say Yes and Learn as You Go Good evening, beautiful. ☀️✨ Years and years ago, during a season when my life did not feel nearly as calm as it does today, I fell in love with Hallmark movies. They felt like a warm blanket to me. I loved the quaint little towns, the sense of…

Staying the Course
Good morning, beautiful. ✨ It is Monday, July 13th, and this morning I find myself thinking about balance. Not the kind of balance that social media likes to sell us with perfectly organized schedules and beautifully curated routines, but the kind of balance that asks us to hold gratitude and uncertainty in the same hand.…

1% Change
Happy Friday, beautiful ✨, This week I’ve been thinking about something that has quietly changed my life over the last six months, and I realized it felt important enough to share with you. Some time ago, one of my good girlfriends, who also happens to host an incredible podcast, introduced her listeners to the idea…

A Different Measuring Stick
Happy Juneteenth, beautiful 💋. As I sit here reflecting on Juneteenth, I find myself thinking about hope. Not the kind of hope that arrives overnight, but the kind of hope that survives generations. The kind of hope carried by people who dreamed of freedom, opportunity, dignity, and a better future that they themselves might never…

Ask for the Thing
Happy Monday evening, beautiful 💋 Tonight, I find myself thinking about two things that have changed my life in ways I could not have imagined years ago. The first is being willing to ask for help. The second is being willing to ask for the thing that I want. While they may seem like two…
