We made it to February. I repeat — we MADE it to FEBRUARY! In the 20 lifetimes that passed in endless January… I feel like I really struggled to get into any kind of consistent groove. I tried to create new habits and (kind of) failed. But I’m not going to let it get me down, we’re just going to dial up the expectations and try harder! Let’s recap my January goals and take a look at what I want to accomplish in February.
Read MoreNew year, new me? No thanks. This year, it’s new year, more disciplined me. That’s my promise to myself in 2025 — to create and maintain a working philosophy, be more intentional about the things that impact my daily life, and set a list of monthly goals aimed to optimize productivity and help protect my inner peace. Reflecting on last year, I really struggled with consistency and spent the vast majority of time feeling genuinely unorganized — even chaotic at times — so I’m challenging myself to step outside my comfort zone and try something new in 2025: I’m making goals and intentions the forefront of my year (something I’ve never done before — I’ve never been a goal setting kind of girl). Here’s a look at what I’ve got in store for 2025, including my January goals.
Read MoreHi friends — Happy Friday and New Year 2025! I hope you had the best holiday season, however you celebrated! I can’t believe it’s my last official day off work before I’m back to the office on Monday. Talk about the Sunday Scaries — I’ve got the Weekend Jitters haha. It’s tough. As much as I want to get back into some kind of normalcy and routine, I’m just not ready for my two week holiday break to be over and done — mega sigh! Anyway… in the spirit of “Friday Favorites” (which I’m committing to bring back to the blog in 2025), today I’m sharing a list of my favorite things from 2024. I always enjoy reading these kinds of posts from other creators, so I thought it’d be fun to wrap up a list of my own this year. From music to books to lots of miscellaneous products, I found myself with quite an array of things to love in 2024 — many things that brightened my days and made life a little bit sweeter when I needed it most.
Read MoreThose of you who know me know I love taking photos wherever I go. Be it landscapes, selfies, or dog pics, while traveling, adventuring, or standing outside in my own back yard, I’m the happiest version of myself when I’m holding my camera, snapping photos, and turning moments of time into forever capsules that are so much fun to look back on each and every year. Sitting here today, a rainy, late-December afternoon in the dwindling days of 2024, I’m really feeling that reminiscing, reflective spirit as I scroll back through a year’s worth of photos that made 2024 a year to remember. Forgoing the traditional style “here’s-what-I-did” kind of reflection post to end the year, I thought I’d share a collection of photos from my 2024 camera roll instead — 12 months of memories that illustrate life, love, and happiness in 2024. What a year!
