Ugh! Feeling FOMO is not fun– I love Maxie’s tips for dealing with it. I personally feel it so much more with Snapchat around more than anything else. I wish I was better about it, but I definitely succumb to that feeling of “ugh, so and so looks like she’s having the best night ever.”…
I’m obsessed with these tips from Maxie. I think I’ve followed all of these travel tips at one point or another, and it’s true, it’s an excellent way to save money. (Going off-season is my favorite because of the discounted rates and fewer crowds!) 6 Tips for Vacationing If You’re Low on Resources and/or Time Guest…
I think one thing that Maxie and I can really bond over is our love of writing. It’s something we both just get about each other, and we love to talk about it. The weird thing is that I never liked to write. In school, it was a chore. Give me a math problem and I…
Maxie’s been on the receiving end of some of my freak outs and I’ve received a few of those texts from her over the years as well. More often than not, there’s an easy solution or whatever we were freaking out about never even comes to be. I love Maxie’s roundup– try to go through…
I do believe in the quote about being the average of the five people you spend the most time with. I’m all about surrounding myself with people, especially women, who lift me up, inspire me, and push me to be my very best. I have friends near and far that I’ve met throughout the years….
I think Maxie, per usual, read my mind. My major to-do this week is to get everything under control. Reorganize my desk, declutter my office, go through my phone and inbox, review and assess my calendar. I’ve been feeling overwhelmed by everything and I think a good, solid spring cleaning is in order. In fact,…
Isn’t it crazy how far we’ve come in terms of technology and communication in such a short amount of time? I think we’re all still trying to catch up as far as best practices, safety, and “rules” are concerned though. There’s a lot of grey area and there’s quite a few ways you can end…
I love when I meet someone and she’s so confidently herself. There’s something powerful and almost entrancing about being in the presence of someone like that. I also can’t help but wonder, how does she do it?! Maxie is one of those uber confident people whom I LOVE spending time with. (I always hope some of…
One thing I’ve learned as I’ve grown up is that the best friendships are the ones that feel easy and natural, but they still take a lot of work and effort. Love Maxie’s tips for being a more supportive friend because I think it’s something everyone can be a little bit better at, even if you’re…

August, you were long, hot, and stormy. And you were also oh so full with Jack’s third birthday, perfectly lazy afternoons at the pond, and all the brotherly love you could hope for as a mama. 🫶🏻☀️🎂🤍💫
About a year late to the Barbie pink 🩷 (this @tuckernuck dress is perfection right?!) #tuckernucking
This poem by @josiebalka came at the perfect time for me. I first heard it at the end of my pregnancy when I was feeling unfit and swollen and exhausted. Then it became my mantra this summer. My jeans are, in fact, a bigger size this year than they were last year. Many days this summer I didn’t want to put on my bathing suit. I didn’t want to go into the water. I didn’t want to wear the shorts or the sleeveless dresses. I have @josiebalka’s poem saved on my phone so I could give it another listen as a little pep talk before getting dressed. 🫶🏻 As summer winds down, I’m so glad I swam in the pool, pond, lake, and ocean with my boys! I’m so glad I wore the bathing suit for slip n slides and shorts to be comfortable in the heat waves and the sleeveless dresses that spoke to me!
