Cultivating gratitude does indeed beget more gratitude. But I also recognize that I am so, so lucky to have so much goodness in my life. Sometimes I take this list too seriously, and put it off when I could just get to the, er, (bullet) point.
Saturday morning was amazing. I feel so loved and supported heading into the next chapter of my life … I could not be more grateful to the absolutely awesome hosts of the party and the incredible women who showed up from near and far to celebrate and shower me with love. Baby Zotlen already has…
I get to see my best girls and favorite fam this weekend and I am so excited! We booked a last minute trip to Playa del Carmen for Memorial Day weekend and I am so excited! I gamed out some points so it’s mostly free except an expensive return flight home putting us in San…
