Joy

🎸 My PT has a dad band (and more of a life than I do)

Who decided the fun stops once the roles start?

🌊 We drove to Lake Geneva without booking a hotel

💅 I spent $150 on my nails, felt guilty, and let myself enjoy them anyway

I'm also telling you why it's been quiet here for a few weeks.

🧡 Apparently I'm not as quiet as everyone thinks

Eighth grade me would not be surprised. Here's what happened in between.

⚽️ England scored twice in two minutes and I just... accepted it

What that taught me about believing before you have proof.

✈️ We looked at flights to Brussels and I almost said yes

And then I remembered I always almost say yes.

📚 I made the account on Valentine's Day. I didn't post for a month!

The gap between "I'm going to do this" and actually doing it is where I've been living. Here's what finally moved me.

🌻 Turns out self-love looks a lot like vitamins and pajamas

A few small ways I've been showing up for myself this season

💚 When Bad Bunny proved there's room for all of us

On Super Bowl Sunday, unapologetic authenticity, and why showing up fully is an act of love and resistance

🌱 Why I'm calling 2026 my year of adventure

On choosing your word when life has already chosen chaos, and why my real new year starts in March...

🕯️ Gratitude when life feels heavy (not the toxic positivity kind)

On finding pockets of peace without dismissing the chaos, and why "at least" isn't actually gratitude...

🏃🏽‍♀️The race I almost didn't tell anyone about

How 46 minutes of running taught me to trust my body again (even after everything it put me through this year)

🎂 Fresh starts and birthday cake (in that order)

New job, new routines, and a whole lot of gratitude as I turn another year older...

🌻 Perfect Progression: Finding Joy
