Happy Monday peeps! So, I’ve been feeling the need to share some real life on here for a while, but kept pushing it off because I didn’t think anyone would want to read this. (Let me preface the rest of the post by saying that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. The first couple of paragraphs are a little less than positive, but I needed to get it out, and that’s part of the purpose...

Happy Monday peeps! Another week of quarantine is here, and I felt like this quote was so very fitting. These are tough times. We can’t see our friends, we can’t work like we normally we do… we can’t go to Goodwill. 😉 But these times will pass, and us tough people will still be standing. I read a post on LinkedIn this past week that someone had written that was all about saying “I do hard things.” She said...

Happy Monday peeps! Spring is in the air… the flowers, the warmer weather, the sunshine… (the pollen). We’re into a new season, but this year is definitely a little different. We may be spending a lot more time at home right now, but maybe that’s not a bad thing. We’re figuring out how to do things from home that we’ve never had to do. We’re spending more time with our family. We’re growing more thankful for things that we’ve...

Hey peeps! It’s Monday again, and we’re facing another week of the unknown. It’s crazy how times like this can offer such realization of how quickly things can change in our personal lives. As I talked about last week, we are not in control, and I think this quote does a good job of expanding on that. We may not be able to “direct the wind, but we can adjust our sails.” We can adjust to the changes or...

We are living in some cray cray times, friends, and for me (and I’m sure for many of you) the thing that is really stressful or worrisome is the not knowing what’s going to happen next. I like to have at least somewhat of a plan for the week, and all these closures or hour changes or work changes can easily keep you on the edge. But you know what? At the end of the day, it’s not in...

Happy Monday peeps! What a crazy week we’ve had… quarantines, sickness, social distancing, and let’s not forget the serious lack of toilet paper and hand sanitizer! But, in all seriousness, it’s been a time of chaos. Thankfully there is peace and hope we can all cling to, and that’s the focus I want to start this week with. Stillness. Sometimes we just have to “be still and know…” Know that we are not in total control, know that things...

Another week is here friends, and this is your reminder that it’s OK to take time for yourself when you need it. I stumbled upon this quote this evening, and it hit me: I’m my longest commitment. And you are your longest commitment. Let that sink in for second. You are your longest commitment. So, if you need to take to a day for you, do it! I’m not saying we should live our lives as if everyday is...

Happy Monday! I wanted to start of this week with some motivation centered around originality, because each of us is completely original. And I think that’s a beautiful thing. It’s easy to compare our lives or the season we’re in to those around us and to do whatever we can to try to get ourselves to where it looks like they’re at… but we each have our own path, and there’s a reason that each of us face the...
