How I Practice Self-Love
Two weeks ago, when I first went to write about this topic, I was in a MOOD. It felt like everything I did or attempted to do went wrong somehow- like the whole world was working against me- but, of course, this wasn’t the case. It was just my mind. My current outlook, a product…
The Beginning of My Hair Growth Journey
I’m at the beginning of my hair growth journey (the beginning of actively trying to make it grow, anyway). I asked you guys on IG stories last week for your best hair growth tips, and, by no surprise, this was a popular topic with many different approaches. Thank you for all of your incredibly helpful…
Letting Go of Perfection
This past weekend, while out to dinner, Dan and I got to talking about goals and dreams we hope to accomplish professionally. And I told him I felt guilty for not having made more money these past couple of years. One, because I want to be a contributing partner in this marriage, but two because…
22 Lessons I’m Taking Into 2023
2022 was an interesting one, to say the least. There were many challenges that came my way, but nothing so mind-blowingly life-altering that caused great suffering. Just challenges. Life stuff. Stuff that definitely knocked me down here and there, but ultimately I was (I AM) okay. More than okay. Because even through these challenges, I’m…
The Pain Can Only Be as Big as the Love
Right now, as I type, I am sitting on the foot of my bed- door shut and locked, the sound of the fan spinning right above me, small pieces of my hair swipe my cheeks as the wind picks them up. I’m looking out my window and it’s a bit cloudy. It feels cozy in…
My Current (Clean) Skincare Routine
Okay so it’s been a while since I last updated my skincare routine, but instead of deleting the old post, I renamed it the clean and budget friendly routine. It’s still a great low-maintenance and cost-effective system that worked for me for a long time, but it’s good to switch things up now and then.…
Building a Life in a New City
As many of you know by now, Dan and I moved from San Diego to Denver in October of 2019, which means that this month marks 3 years here. And it’s really weird to think about how that’s well over the time I spent living in SD, yet, so much happened there. I got my…
Living in Grief and Gratitude
I shared recently on IG how I’ve been hearing about so much loss and suffering lately. Friends who have lost family members, complete strangers who’ve lost a loved one, humans and animals suffering at the hands of others, or from neglect. It makes me angry. And it also makes me feel like curling up in…
A Few Things to Help Your Wedding Run Smoothly
It’s officially been over one year now since mine and Dan’s wedding- the biggest and best party we’ve ever thrown with so many of our loved ones- and I’m still not over how lucky we are to have gotten to experience this kind of moment in life. It truly was so freaking special. And, even…
Navigating the In-Between
Not sure about you guys, but I’ve been feeling a little off as of late. Not necessarily in a bad way, but in a way where I feel like I’m rediscovering who I am. Like the things that I used to do or like have changed and I am not quite sure what they are…
