  • Small wins

    Small wins

    Life is topsy-turvy right now. It’s certainly not ideal. It’s not the way I imagined. But I’m trying to find solace in the small wins.

    Living past your page✌️

    I think it’s so important to have the courage to turn pages. But I’m learning that it’s incredibly difficult to turn a page when all you want to do is continue reading. If you’re not turning the page by choice, it’s difficult to accept the next steps of where you need to go in life.…

  • Phases of the moon

    Phases of the moon

    “I thought I saw my future, but it turns out that the crystal ball was cracked.” – Katie Pruitt, Phases of the Moon A few months ago, I wrote an article called The year of opportunity. In the article, I described one of my greatest problems. I’m always thinking about the future. I’m always thinking…

  • Sharing is caring

    Sharing is caring

    Why is it so difficult to talk about ourselves? Why do we hate sharing? Are we worried that others will judge us? Do we want to avoid the worst trait in the world – being a bragger? (actually something underratedly valuable). Are we worried that they’ll feel some sort of resentment? Are we worried that…

  • The comfort of normalcy

    The comfort of normalcy

    I love my life. I really love my life. Missing out on that life even for a day felt like too much. It felt like something that I would have only wanted to do, if I could have brought my life with me. If I could have continued to live my life in the exact…

  • The Energy Audit

    The Energy Audit

    Whenever reflecting on life, I carefully assess how much I’m enjoying something. Whether it’s something that excites me. Or something that leaves me coming home, wanting to fall asleep. It’s important for anyone to recognize what matters most to them and what they want to prioritize in their life. One of the best ways to…

  • Why friends need to be a priority in your life

    Why friends need to be a priority in your life

    So often, paths change. We go our separate ways. We lose touch with our friends. We lose touch with the very people that care about us most. That wouldn’t want to live without us.

  • Scanning for opportunities

    Scanning for opportunities

    I hate binaries. But to some extent, I believe there are two types of people in this world. Those that scan for opportunities. And those that scan for problems. Let me tell you one thing right off the top here. Don’t be the one that scans for problems. Those are the people that always drain…

  • The art of asking ‘why not?’

    The art of asking ‘why not?’

    One of the most powerful questions you can ask just so happens to be one of the toughest. Something we’re all afraid to ask. ‘Why not?’
