THE JOURNEY

Took a morning walk to clear my mind and get fresh air. Spotted a new spot opening soon, but Sixty Vines was calling my name. Stopped to hydrate, sat back, and enjoyed eggs, bacon, hash browns, homemade fig jam, and carrot cake pancakes. Finished with a view of the courtyard.
☕️✨
It was the perfect, grounded way to start the day. How are you taking time for yourself today?

THE DESK | Setting the Day

Before the emails start rolling in and the workday takes over, I like to take a quiet moment for myself. Playing a track on vinyl, looking out at the city, and just letting the morning settle in. Filling my cup first makes all the difference in how I show up for everything else. ☕️🎶

Do you have a morning ritual that helps you set your intentions before starting the day? I’d love to hear what works for you!

The Journey | Finding My Way Back

Grief doesn’t operate on a timeline, and it certainly doesn't fit into a schedule.
❤️
When my mother passed four years ago, I tried to force myself back into content creation, but I couldn’t. It took every ounce of energy I had to show up for work every morning. The thought of making anything extra felt completely daunting.
❤️
A few months ago, my therapist shared a phrase that changed my perspective: grief awareness.
❤️
I realized grief isn’t something I have to outrun or fix; it’s always going to be here, and I’ve embraced that. I’ve learned that I can miss my mom deeply while still making space to live, create, and move forward.
❤️
I’m finally ready to do life again.
