I open my eyes and here I am. Smack dab in the middle of the year. When did the time go and did it take my phone charger on the way out? The minutes are just not long enough anymore. This month has been a huge transition month for me but we’ll get to that in a bit.

There’s so many other ways to celebrate the important people in your life. One of the best gifts whether you’ve been dating for 6 months or married for 16 years is spontaneity.

Personally, the holidays are always tricky to navigate. Where to send gifts, dates of travel, the feeling of obligation to celebrate in ways that aren’t personally ideal or the guilt of isolation if you decide to stay home

It all begins with an idea.
