Happy Friday, friends! I’m writing from my office with a nice cup of coffee in hand! I have some fun things that I’m celebrating this week, so why don’t I get right into it?

Best Summer Reads for 2022
Nothing sounds better than turning the pages of a good book by the pool – or on vacation. Books transport us to different places, they evoke new emotions and they inspire creativity (at least they do for me). And, after saying all that, I haven’t read near as many books as I would like to this year. I’ve knocked a…
Weekend Digest: Feels like summer
Happy Monday! I’m starting my Monday off with two early morning meetings today! I also have two items that must be knocked off my plate before the end of the day. So, shall we talk about how the idea of things looming down the pipeline can affect a weekend? For me, I really try to disconnect on the weekend. I…
Friday Favorites + Changing Perspectives
Happy Friday, friends! I started my morning off with a cup of Nespresso (their tropical coconut flavor is back for summer)!

What’s Happening Wednesday + Best Engagement Gifts
Happy Wednesday. Boy do I have a random post for you today. I’ve got a couple of things on my mind including a new recipe, engagement gifts and a new Therabody product!

But before I get into that, here is one of all-time favorite Cinco de Mayo…
Thoughts on the Theragun
Happy Wednesday, friends! Is your week off to a good start? The good news is that it’s Wednesday – the bad news is that we have a couple more days until the weekend. I have a work retreat tomorrow, which I’m looking forward to. This will be my first full team retreat in person since March 2020. I can’t wait…
Weekend Edit
Happy Monday, friends. How are we already in May? I felt like April just started a few days ago, yet here we are. This weekend also marked the first day that it officially felt like summer in Houston. And if it was any indication, it’s going to be a hot one. We had a fun weekend celebrating our friend, Mike,…

We got a whole bunch of rain in Houston on Monday, which was the perfect time to light some candles, unpack and unwind after my workday.
