Today we dive back into routines as the kids head back to school. I'm reminding myself that I don't have to rush back into it, and it might take some time to feel "at home" again with our schedule. I also made time today to document my gratitude for such a lovely summer, as well as my appreciation for the structure and comfort that our routines provide. Thanking my past self for not having any deadlines or meetings today!

I'm so delusional and I think it works!

I want to hear all your expectations and big dreams. Safe place to share them (scream them from the hypothetical rooftop) in the comments 👇

Quote Roundup! 3 quotes I couldn't stop thinking about, and how each one actually showed up in my life:

"What if asking for help is actually a flex"
I'm actually so good at this one. If there's a trophy for it, hand it over and I'll gladly accept.

"It might ruin my day but it won't ruin my year"
My contractor said this to me when I pointed out something hadn't gone according to plan. I've been repeating it to myself when I catch myself scowling over something that really isn't that big a deal.

"You can't compete with someone having fun"
Turns out this is the actual antidote to summer-is-half-over spiraling. I've been keeping a gratitude journal and celebrating all my favorite things about summer which makes the day way more enjoyable than being a Debbie Downer about it.

Which one resonates with you!?

4 quotes I couldn't stop thinking about last week, and how each one actually showed up in my life:

"Always root for your friends, it feels good to celebrate something"
I leaned into my passion for being a hype girl. Commented on more videos instead of just double-tapping and texted a few people just because I was thinking of them.

"You don't need to solve every problem right now, only those that stand in your way"
With a packed schedule and my (better) half traveling, I got ruthless about what actually needed me this week versus what could wait.

"I just want to see what I can get away with"
This is a little ironic that the same week, but I love the concept and how I can apply it in so many ways in my life. I gave myself permission to go on a few side-quests this week: a surprise branding project, and becoming a homemade coffee syrup girlie.

"Curate your influences before your influencers"
I unfollowed a bunch of brands and people I don't actually interact with in hopes that the people I want to hear from show up more.

Which one resonates with you!?"
