Happy weekend, friends! This one’s already been full of swimming with friends and food on the grill – and this morning, Phoebe and I are hopping a flight to St. Louis to visit my brother and meet my other new baby niece, June! (If you’ve been following along, you’ll know that both my siblings had […]
Mornings can be tough, and all too often, we get through breakfast feeling groggy and rushed—or worse, skip it altogether. With summertime in full swing, I’m determined to make the most of these longer days by upping my morning game. To start strong, I switched up my usual after-work drinks meet up by inviting a […]
You can’t drive across the Congress Street bridge in Austin without seeing dozens of people on stand up paddle boards (or as we like to say around here, “SUP” boards.)

Self-love gone too far.

featured image via my limerence After listening to HBR’s podcast ‘Ask Better Questions’, I realized that I have really been underestimating the power of asking the right questions to the right people. Despite watching episodes of Law & Order (SVU…on repeat), I never saw asking questions to be some sort of science-backed strategic endeavor—when I want to […]
When was the last time you paid for your groceries in cash? I certainly can’t remember that far back. With credit cards and digital wallets dominating today’s payment landscape, most of us are going cash-free. Between credit cards, student loans, and mortgages, our financial lives are more digital and automated than ever before. Not to […]
