An awesome, wide-ranging, organic and intense and happy week. Grateful for: The Refresh Solo camping on Padre Island National Seashore? Miracles. The quote “the waves of the sea help me get back to me” has never run more true. Also I made my own damn fire in the midst of insane wind, drank jetboil coffee,…
The banking industry is changing, and the new (millennial/HENRY) players came out with a bang (2.2% interest!) but are backing off as interest rates go down (1.6-1.7%). Nonetheless, I’ve been SUPER happy with SoFi and very happy with Marcus, so I wanted to summarize what’s up with the new fintech. SoFi In my opinion, this…
Love … I talk a lot about love on this blog—things I love, people I love, family and friends and places I love, my pup I love more than anything. But love is different than relationships. Today is about celebrating love, and I believe wholeheartedly in that. I hope I tell the people I love…
In honor of the fauxliday coming up this Friday, let me share a poem I very much still believe in, shared on dailyhap in 2014.

Today in retail you never knew was happening, I stumbled upon these CODE Hex Caterpillar sneakers that look like they came from a high-end fashion house, not the dirty corner of a construction site. At a mere $60 a pop with unisex sizing and leather uppers, these are a true hidden gem. And if the…
With the weather at sunny and 75, I was lucky enough to enjoy baskin’ in the sun in my backyard this week! Very grateful for my house house … host of Sunday night football watching, roaring fires, Monday nights reading books by a fire after a delicious dinner … This week was a tough one.…

I’ve joined the leadership council of the group and am taking on the responsibility of bringing on new members! Why join? It’s $65 for a full year of events, free…
011720 // Aspen: 1, Lyssa: 0 I returned from last weekend’s Aspen trip fulfilled with friendship, exhausted, and sicker than I’ve been in a long, long time. Like, sick enough that I fell asleep on the DEN>AUS flight in a middle seat without a neck pillow. Sick enough that I still haven’t eaten solid food,…
