    personal

    Essays, reflections, conversations on life + work + everything in between. All my more personal posts in one spot.

    From happiness and light to grief and sadness. To gratitude and love to confusion and lessons learned. And sometimes just some silly ramblings that inspire me - or conversations I feel like starting. Work life balance, relationships, the internet, mindfulness, wellness habits, love, loss and more. These are my personal / real life posts and essays...

    I really try to do a balance of happiness + sadness here because that is what life is made up of. So many happy things and so many hard things that change us, help us grow.
