Things I’ve Been Leaning Into & Loving Lately
I’ve taken significant time off this summer, unplanned, just being and refocusing. Trying to recalibrate my priorities and find my purpose, drive, and motivation again. It’s really been amazing, being checked out and offline, reacquainting myself with other priorities and things that need my attention. And while I was away, these were all the things I was leaning into, and absolutely loving, during my time off.
My 2022 Mantra Reflection & Year In Review
Happy New Year! I know I feel and say this every year now in my adult life — but 2022 FLEW by! I mean flew. I still can’t believe it’s a new year, but I’d have to say, this time around I’m glad for it. 2022 was simultanously a good and very, very hard year for us and I was ready for that clean slate feeling of a new year. Today, I’m reflecting on my 2022 mantra and looking back at how those words actually took affect in my life.

5 Ways I Combat Overwhelm
I'm someone who can easily get overwhelmed. I'm such an overthinker! And, as a creative, there's typically an endless amount of tasks I'd like to get done everyday and new ideas that I have. When everything takes time, it can sometimes feel like I just don't have time for anything. Here are 5 ways I've learned to combat overwhelm and cope over the years.
My Mantra for 2022
I’m still in a little shock that it’s 2022! Do you typically set resolutions or do any of those “new year” sorts of things? I LOVE the idea of them but have never been one to actually do them. But I recently saw this word puzzle graphic on Instagram with a heading that said, “The first four words you see will be your mantra for 2022” and well, I went for it! In this blog, I’m reviewing each word I intuitively found, journaling my thoughts about them, and overall recapping my mantra for 2022!

Check out the last 5 books ( and 3 novellas) I’ve read in one (and almost one) sitting!
My Reading Journey & Backstory
Have you ever thought back through your journey to reading? Or maybe you’ve always been a consistent, avid reader. I was just thinking about mine the other day and noticed certain catalysts that set (and reset) my reading journey into motion. And I thought why not put pen to paper, or rather, hands to keyboard and record that story of mine! I love looking back and mapping out particular paths of my life. It’s so interesting to examine and consolidate in hindsight.

From cozying it up at home to heading out on a little getaway, I’ve listed all the things about this time of year that bring me joy and I hope it’ll bring just a little bit more joy to your day, too!
