Keep going I care about my readers. I’m grateful for every view that I receive. I say that, because sometimes I feel like I’m not putting enough effort into the writing I share. Not enough soul or passion. Sometimes I feel like maybe I’m not spending enough time writing. I definitely don’t feel like I’mContinue reading “Quick Reminder”

Self Care
What does it take to take care of yourself? What does it take to say no to the things that don’t align with your values? My initial answer is a job. An income. But that doesn’t make much sense at all. It doesn’t take having a job to say no to things that don’t suitContinue reading “Self Care”
Your Words
Don’t swallow your words before they reach the keyboard. First drafts are supposed to be riddled with scattered thoughts. You are supposed to let it all out and organize it later. When we don’t allow our minds the space to unload, we lose that connection to our creativity. There’s writers out there writing entire novelsContinue reading “Your Words”
I’m not always able to work at full capacity. It’s important for me to be honest with myself about that. I am a social entrepreneur because I consistently show up. Not because I’m good at it, not because I can raise millions of dollars over night or that I have some outrageous following. I’m aContinue reading
“Best Option”
Yesterday I briefly spoke about how I’m adjusting to going into non profit work (You can read it here.). One of the things I said was, “so, this seems like the best option.” I just want to explore that for moment. There is clearly some hesitation in that statement. Maybe even some insecurity. Let’s beContinue reading ““Best Option””
The Adjustment
I’ve been a stay at home mom or in school for the last 8 years. Adjusting to starting a nonprofit has been tough. It’s tough for many reasons but even so, this seems like the best option because it’s something I can do for a long time. I’m a sensitive, committed, and loyal individual soContinue reading “The Adjustment”
Sticking It Out
How in the world is this going to work? How can doing all this come to anything? I don’t know. I really don’t know. I know that I’m happy here. I know that if this could last forever, I’d let it. I’m ok with change, but I don’t need to fight for it. It comesContinue reading “Sticking It Out”
Painted Nails
I haven’t had time to do small things for myself lately. I’ve been going non stop! But today I found time to paint my nails. I painted them pale pink and I love them. I do forgot how long it takes to dry them so I accidently smudged my thumb. I used to get myContinue reading “Painted Nails”
I Love Baths
I hope my future has a hot tub in it. I love baths. Bubbles, oils, candle light, all of it. I’ve always wanted one of those trays for the bath. Mostly because I’ve never had one. As for my love baths, there was even a brief time in my adult life where I would onlyContinue reading “I Love Baths”
Coffee Love/Hate
My love/hate relationship with coffee. I appreciate the energy coffee gives me. What’s even better is that I learned how I like my coffee made. I just hate that it makes me feel foggy the next day. Sometimes it feels like my best option is to drink another coffee. I don’t like that feeling. TheContinue reading “Coffee Love/Hate”
