Hi! It’s been quite a transition moving out of ATX to my hometown in Wisconsin. As to be expected, there’s been so much greatness and some trials, too. A big motivator to moving back home was to begin my career at Northwestern Mutual, as well as spend as much time as possible with my mom…

It’s officially one week before my move out of Austin, Texas. I write to you with tired eyes from crying, a room full of boxes and a mattress on the floor. It’s all just a lot. Deciding to move back to my hometown in Wisconsin has been one of the hardest decisions I’ve made thus…

The term “dream life” speaks to everyone differently. A million dollar home, a societally perceived “perfect” body, a vast group of friends, a wealthy significant other, a clean space, a home cooked meal, a warm bed to cozy up in or waking up to a bright sun peeking through the blinds.

Hi friends! Just a few days ago I happened to look down at my shoes. I noticed the dried mud from my run days ago. I noticed how bright and colorful my laces were. I noticed how perfectly snug they fit. It was a moment of being reminded just how much smaller moments are often…

2024 has already surprised me. I’m reminded every late Wisconsin winter how much I suppress the uncomfort that builds up throughout the little moments from the year prior. The past few months have welcomed change, without my consent might I add! I’ve carved a decent amount of quiet time into my schedule lately. I’ve been…

Hi friends! I read through my previous blog posts this morning and noticed that the material I’ve been writing has been rather serious.
