A Call for Advice Before I Turn 30
I have exactly three weeks left of being 29. Which means I have exactly three weeks left of my 20’s. Which is…well, I haven’t decided yet. I’ve never really been afraid of or concerned with my age—mostly because I’ve learned that every age has the potential to bring you both good and bad things—but the… Continue reading

There is More
Since I have been lucky enough to continue going into the office for work, I am among the (far fewer) commuters in the morning and afternoon. And lately on my way home, I have been taking the freeway a few exits past my own, and then driving up and down the side streets around my… Continue reading

If You Have Time to Kill, Take These Personality Tests (Part Two)
One of my favorite ways to kill time—quarantine or not—is to take personality tests. I love unlocking new sections of my mind, gaining a new understanding of my psyche and defending myself against results that seem too dead on to be possible.

I was recently listening to Rachel Hollis’ podcast, Rise, and she had author Elizabeth Gilbert on to talk about fear. If you’ve been around this blog before, you’ll know that fear is a pretty common topic, as it is a very prominent part of my life—though not always in a negative way. I find that… Continue reading

How to Make 2020 Memorable (In A Good Way)
This past weekend I was sitting on the beach with some family, listening to music and watching the sunset, when my cousin Amanda posed a question. I know that 2020 hasn’t been great, but I think we should each try and think of something that we’d like to do by the end of the year… Continue reading

For Anyone Else Who is Opening and Closing and Scrolling and Sighing
I wrote this a little while back, but it has been resonating with me lately so I wanted to share. It’s 7:00 p.m. I’m alone, my roommates aren’t home from work yet, and I’m lying on my bed with a towel in my hair. I unlock my phone and I open Instagram. I scroll… Continue reading

Getting Over the Big Bump
Up until I was nine years old, my family lived in a blue house, in a neighborhood close to our church. My dad had bought the house with a few of his friends before he met my mom, and so by the time they got married and I came along, we were very much part… Continue reading

Two Things Yoga Has Taught Me This Year
A couple months ago I mentioned that I’d gotten into a yoga series called Home on the YouTube channel Yoga with Adrienne. Since then I’ve made it into a habit to do yoga almost every day and it has done wonders for me. As of right now, with some restrictions still in place, I am… Continue reading

Why Finding Your Own Voice Can Help Everyone
Not too long ago, I did a thorough cleaning of my house in which I gave away things I didn’t use, threw away things that were broken, and, more than anything, found things I forgot I had. One such thing was a book called “Music Listography,” which I’m pretty sure I impulse bought from Target,… Continue reading
