“Achievement is talent plus preparation.” —Reading “Outliers” by Malcom Gladwell and loving the hidden stories behind successful people.

Starting a 10-day cleanse tomorrow. No sugar. No caffeine. No alcohol. 😅 Gonna do my best to maintain my sanity and put a hard reset on my diet! My reward? A trip to the sauna for a true detox 🧖‍♀️ Let’s see if I can do this…

Watercolors are so fun 🎨

Idk why I’ve never had jackfruit tacos before now, but they’re delicious. Nearly a week without meat and I don’t miss it 🤷🏼‍♀️

Plants remind me that often the only thing limiting our growth is the container we put ourselves in 🪴#keepgrowing

Watching “Love is Blind: Japan” and I’m already crying in the first episode 😭♥️

Could you perhaps join me in waking up early to stop by the police station to share a card, some flowers, or a kind thought for our police officers and their dear friends and families? You never know how much a simple gesture may mean to someone hurting. ♥️

Why don’t new dog moms get maternity leave? I feel so guilty leaving my new fur baby behind this morning 😭

“The greatest thing that comes from a sacrifice is not the reward but who we become because of that sacrifice. It’s not what we get; it’s who we become.” ♥️

New dream job: working for #storycorps

Go look at the moon

“Diverse personalities make for rich friendships.”

I think it would be cool to create a community page for all the people I’ve shared a “friendship plant” with…just so I can watch the generations of my mother plant grow and be shared with others 🌱

Shingles is so not fun.

I’ve been reading Job while coping with my shingles and I don’t think I’ve ever identified so much with a Bible character 😅😓

So excited to see the immersive Van Gogh exhibit in KC this weekend! 🎨

I just wanna personally thank whoever created NyQuil

My mom caught me eating a bowl of cookie dough and made me swap it out with a bowl of quinoa salad and I think that might be child abuse.
