Five Nice Things – 3.16.24
Earlier this week I read a blog post about intentionally finding and focusing on five nice things that you have seen or experienced recently. This was not a brand new concept for me by any means, but I enjoyed its simplicity and purpose. After a good but exhausting and jam-packed week, I thought reflecting and… Continue reading

This was definitely not always the case, but… Continue reading

bull market mood
Well well well, it has been a minute. I think that’s how I start 99% of my blog posts these days. I can’t help it! I sit down to write something and then get frustrated that my thoughts don’t make as much sense as I want them to or I just get distracted by something… Continue reading

January, so far
We are already halfway through January! I am genuinely shocked. I know I am not alone when I say that January normally feels at least 70 days long. Nonetheless, this month has felt pretty good… so far. I absolutely feel like I am going to jinx myself, but oh well. Work has been busy, I’ve… Continue reading
