A New Season

I always look forward to the start of a new season but lately I’ve been appreciating the shift more than ever before.

For the first time in what seems like my whole life, things have really slowed down. The past year has seen the accomplishment of so many of my lifelong goals (graduate law school, get married, begin my career, live in the same town as my sister). It’s been really incredible, and a lot more stressful than I ever imagined, but these are things I have dreamed of for as long as I can remember.

Then came the sense of “now what?” I thrive on pursuing goals and derive a good amount of happiness from looking forward to exciting moments. So when life died down a bit I had a moment - okay, a few months - of panic. But, after some self reflection, a few good cry sessions, and some days spent outside in the sun, I’m finally starting to feel like myself again.

I am working on enjoying where I’m at - not creating happiness by thinking about what’s to come. I’ve set some new goals and started to discuss a vision for the next year or two with Ryan - a home, some design projects, a baby (!!!), and lots of travel. It all has me so, so excited.

I can’t wait to share more here as I experience an uptick in my energy and inspiration. Thank you for being here!
