Summer is such a bittersweet season for a lot of people I work with. On the one hand, it’s full of joy – school’s out, the sun is shining, and vacations are calling. But with the sunshine often comes a little anxiety as the heat means lighter clothing, swimsuits and showing more skin. And, that’s … Read More
I’m writing this on the fly this morning as I woke up full of peace and gratefulness. No Bathing Suit Bash like last year, but we are heading to Portugal soon, and I want to share some birthday thoughts and ask you for a present. Here’s what I’m grateful for: ✨ My family’s health. As … Read More
I showed up for an appointment with someone I haven’t seen in a while. When I walked in she said, “You look so tiny! You look so good!” And, then she said it again. My response was I look good if I’m fat, too!” 😊 That’s it. That’s the blog post. 💛 Love you all to the … Read More
Doesn’t it seem like everyone wants to lose 5 pounds? That no matter what size you are, there’s a slight wanting to just be a little thinner followed by a hesitation to invest in clothes until the “5 lbs” are gone.

I posted a reel about a conversation I had with my … Read More

I came across a meme that’s stuck with me. It said: “New Year, New You”—but crossed out “New You” and replaced it with “More You!” YES PLEASE. We often start the year driven by outside voices telling us what we should strive for. But these all-or-nothing goals make the stakes impossibly high, leaving little room … Read More
Today is the birthday of best friend from high school. Best friend doesn’t really capture Zöe’s role in my life. First Soulmate is a better name. I learned about her death last September. She and I took different paths after high school and officially lost touch in 2022. I remember what she wore to freshman … Read More
