I have no idea what success looks like
No one. I can literally think of no one. I’m sitting here trying to figure out an image of what a successful person looks like. I have got nothing. My instant response to that was to assume it was because I am without ambition or a clear vision for my life. The level headed part…

Have you ever heard of Cellcosmet Switzerland?
I have a problem, well multiple problems really. I am overly curious when it comes to skincare. That skincare tends to be expensive luxury skincare. And I only have one face and a limited budget. That said, I can’t try everything I am interested in, but I am intrigued by the offerings from Cellcosmet Switzerland.…

No seats at the table
I often have the sense, when I go to networking events, conferences, and general crowds, that I am the only one. I am the outsider. As I walk around I can the groups of people who are sitting with their premade groups of friends or the custom set they developed at the event. It’s like…

On frog clutches and fearlessness
I just saw a clutch from JW Anderson. And I thought it was ridiculous. Maybe you do too. It is a 3D printed plastic frog. I mean looking at it, it looks like the model is walking around town with a pet frog. And I laughed out loud, literally, when I saw how it opens.…

I prefer to save Christmas for Christmas
It’s happening again, Christmas is trying to slyly sneak up. I am writing this on September 20. It is not even officially fall in the United States. And yet there is already peppermint mocha creamer in the store with snowflake adorned bottles. The freezer is full of Santa themed ice cream flavors. And when I…

A travel memory
Years ago, I spent some time in Morocco. It was an unforgettable time. I learned pieces of a new language and culture. I slept under the stars in the Sahara. I explored the markets filled with handcrafted goods. I heard stories that forged new relationships and cemented forever memories. I had the best French fries…

Celebrating a milestone for the site
This post marks my 365th day straight of posting. I set a goal for myself to be consistent for one year straight and achieved it. What have I learned? Honestly, that I’m capable of more than I let on. I was able to keep this habit going by while traveling, when my schedule was jampacked,…
