Watching you accomplish so much these past couple years – including and especially the ability to give yourself grace and prioritizing your personal, spiritual nourishment – has been so deeply moving my friend!!!

Thank you for the shout out, too! I so appreciate the support 🫶🏽

I really enjoyed reading this, I love seeing people simply enjoy life. 2 summers ago was the first time I had the entire summer off and it was the best time ever. I soaked up every moment ☀️

My summer priorities are spending lots of time outdoors doing yoga and walking meditations and swimming, mothering and spending quality time with my kids, date nights with my husband, lots of reading, planning for the retreat I am leading(!) in early August and continuing to write my memoir. Your list has inspired me L’Oreal!
