Confession: before I sat down to write this post, I hopped up and made myself a cup of coffee. Then I posted a couple images to my Instagram stories. Just when I thought I was ready to settle in and start writing, I remembered a text message that needed a response. And finally – here we […]
Earlier this year, I did an “edit” on my Instagram feed and whittled it down to only the accounts who truly inspire me.

Jaw-dropping penthouse living in all the best ways.
In a couple of months, we’ll be making the big move downtown to our newly renovated office bungalow. We can’t wait to have extra space to work on projects and endless storage for our ever-growing supply of props.

Most people think about detoxes and resolutions on January 1st, but the real winners in life are the ones that think about setting and achieving goals year-round.
