Wow - long time no see! It’s been almost two months since I actually published a blog post so this will serve as an update on what’s been going on with me since I’ve been away. It’s been a wild ride but I’m hanging in there!
Read MoreDuring this last season of business, I realized that when I’m short on time (and a little stressed out) I often forget to see the miracles that are right in front of me. In order to combat that, I decided to revisit my list of all the amazing manifestations I’ve created in my life over the past few years and I thought I’d share a few of them with you. I’d highly encourage you to make a list of your own because we often forget how far we’ve come. Reveling in your wins is an easy way to get the good vibes flowing.
Read MoreI am content. I honestly didn’t know what else to write. I am busy and a little overwhelmed with all the things I want to get done but in the best way possible. I have so much content I want to create to help guide other people to be their best and design an incredible life for themselves. I LOVE coaching and I’m running full speed ahead with it. I’ve been heads down for the last few weeks just getting as much done as I can while at home and spending my time off really being off.
Read MoreIt’s been a year since I quit my job. It also coincidentally almost coincides with my birthday which makes the reflection factor high. In case you need a recap, in the spring of 2018 I was seriously considering what I wanted to do with my life. I was tired of people asking me, “how’s work?” and only being able to reply with, “it’s fine.” By all accounts I was in a successful career that suited my strengths, but there was something missing. Finally, Seb and I decided that we had enough savings that I could quit and figure it out. Boy am I glad I did.
Read MoreAfter last month’s bummer of an update, I’m happy to report that I’m feeling much better! I think in many ways that low was what I needed to let go of some of the things I was holding too tightly to. I’ve had quite a few breakthroughs recently and I know the two are related.
Read MoreMy intention for this year was to allow. To let go of resistance and let in all of the manifestations I’ve been attracting. I don’t think I thought it would be hard. I was wrong.
Read MoreI’m not going to lie, I’ve been struggling to write this month’s update and wanted to post it on Friday, but it took until today for the words to come. I am a generally happy and optimistic person and the last two weeks I haven’t felt like myself. Nothing in my life has changed, but all of a sudden it seemed like I couldn’t summon any of the hope + joy I normally feel. Luckily, I have the self-awareness to realize what was happening and the tools to deal with it. And today I feel a little better. I know I’m not out of the woods yet, but I feel hopeful (yay!) that things are looking up.
Read MoreI don’t talk much about my relationship with Sebastian here or on social media. I am so in love with the partnership we’ve built and don’t necessarily want or need validation of our relationship. Sometimes it’s nice to have something that’s just for you. But coming up on our 1st anniversary, I wanted to cement a few of my thoughts and feelings for me to look back on later. I know that I’m not an expert on marriage by any means, but I do feel that we’re really good at being married to each other and I wanted to share my biggest takeaways from our time together thus far.
Read MoreI swear this year just keeps getting better and better. Our move into Brown Betty went smoothly, we’ve been knocking down some of the easy fixes and have started the master bedroom renovation, and I went to Alt/Alison’s Brand School (and fell in love with Palm Springs)!
Read MoreIf you’re in the self-improvement space at all, you’ll know that finding your “why” is a frequently discussed topic and most people would tell you that it’s crucial for living a purposeful life. It’s also maddening when everyone is saying “you need to figure it out and here’s how” and then you still can’t figure it out. I read articles and blog posts and books. I listened to podcasts and youtube videos. I really, truly wanted to find what would make me fulfilled, but it eluded me.
Read MoreIf you read the blog regularly, you know that I’ve been excited about Alt Summit + Alison’s Brand School for months. In fact, the real reason I wanted to go to Alt was to attend Brand School (also, Palm Springs). It’s amazing what happens when you finally do something you’ve been called to do. I will say that my best day BY FAR was the day of Alison’s Brand School, but the experience of Alt Summit had a lot to offer as well. Here are my big takeaways and a little about how I’ll be moving forward with the business in the wake of this amazing week.
Read MoreI’m so happy to see the first day of Spring! It might not feel like Spring this week, but I can tell it’s coming and I definitely feel like I’ve been spring cleaning over here. When I was making a gratitude list recently, I thought about a few of the seemingly trivial things that I really love and felt needed to be shared, so here they are!
Read MoreSo I told you the story about manifesting a bunch of money by selling our townhouse, but what I didn’t tell you was that we ended up making about $75,000! What?? It was crazy town and I want to share the love and tell you exactly why I truly believe it was a manifestation and not just happenstance.
Read MoreI feel like so much has changed since I wrote last month’s update post. I manifested a crazy amount of money with the sale of our townhouse, we’re all packed up and moved into storage, and my mind is filled with design plans for our new fixer upper.
Read MoreTulum! When we started telling people we were headed to Mexico and they asked where in Mexico we were going, most hadn’t heard of Tulum which I was surprised about. It seems to be a good mix of both beach resorts + local spots. In an effort to share the love, here’s a recap of what we did, saw and ate in Tulum!
Read MoreHOW is it already the middle of February. I feel so thrown off right now. We were in Mexico for the first few days of February (recap coming soon) and then got really sick. I mean like a sickness from hell. We’re slowly regaining our energy and appetites, and I feel like it’s been forever since I’ve actually written anything. Apologies for the absence, but I’m back! January was a slow month and I experienced an energetic/emotional low that I haven’t seen in a while, but that picked up once I realized it was just my annual winter blues. The end of January ended up being really productive.
Read MoreHere’s the thing: last year I went way out of my comfort zone, quit my job, + started a business. There was a lot of change all at once and then towards the end of the year, things slowed down. There wasn’t as much personal growth to be had and coupled with those winter blues, it made for a hefty bout of self-doubt. Now that I’m feeling better, it’s a lot easier to remember what I’m doing and why I’m doing it. It’s a big takeaway I took from the last few weeks - I always know what I want, but I just sometimes have a hard time remembering it.
Read MoreJanuary is always a bit of a weird time of year. You’re coming off the holiday rush and have hopefully rested up for the new year, but there are lots of expectations and things people are working towards. All you want to do is clean and organize your house. Also, it’s freaking dark all the time and if you’re like me, you forgot to start taking your vitamin D when you should have. So in the spirit of some light-hearted fun, here is a list of a few of my current favorite things.
