Took a walk down memory lane

Last week I went to visit an old college friend who lives in the same town where we attended school.

She was getting married over the weekend and I wanted to spend time with her before the big day.

Walking down the streets and witnessing all the changes that have happened in the last 10 years was a gift.

I remembered visiting the library for the first time and using my local address to become a member. It was exhilarating!

Once I moved off campus and went to the recycling center, I felt so grown up and responsible.

Adjusting to a new place or developing a new skill might be overwhelming at first.

How often do we try to tackle every challenge in one fail swoop?

Instead, accept the overwhelm and embrace the opportunity to experience something new.

And once you've mastered it, try to take another baby step to become a master at that!

I'm here to encourage you that small baby steps—overtime—will sustainably get you where you want to go.

Are you ready? Clearly, they are not. My sweet mother recommended more discussions about in my email newsletters so let's do it! I love talking about composting. Using something that would otherwise go to the landfill to turn back into soil, amazing. What you need to remember about the process is to have more browns (carbon) than greens (nitrogen). What are sources of carbon? 💚shredded paper💚toilet paper and paper towel tubes💚wood chips💚dried leaves💚newspaper💚cardboard💚eggshells What are...

Searching for consistency

Where's the balance? It's snow magical My weekly email habits have fallen off the deep end and are no where to be found. In this season of managing a full time job and having time for anything else, I've sacrificed a lot. The other day, I had the realization that I can't expect myself to do all the things I was doing before I had a full time job. I simply don't have the same amount of time. And that's okay! The morning go by quickly as we rush to get out the door. The evenings are filled with...
