Nashville is an awesome town, and the group of girls I stormed it with even better. Nashville as a trip was completely unexpected—when someone asks if I want to go somewhere I’ve never been with people I mostly don’t know but it’s pretty cheap and already planned, I will always say yes. So I had…
That is, I would be grateful for it if I had it. This week has been insane, incredible, intense. Emotional to say the least. And as I turned to my yoga—where I completely lost my shit on the mat one day which I suppose is as good a place as any to lose your mind…
Grateful for this FULL, crazy life. Grateful for friends and family and therapy and Nali running around and a new striped sweater and my crazy employee whatsapping me while I’m at a music festival and Mostly grateful for GEORGE STRAIT. But also cowboy pool and Xian Noodles happy hour and Frankly strawberry lemonade vodka and…
This was my third trip to Chicago, but the first where I felt like I really got to wander and get the vibe of the city so many people love. And I get it, Chi-lovers: the city is sporty, authentic, energetic without being frenetic, outdoorsy, inventive, and just nice. We stayed in the Gold Coast…
I HAVE A NEPHEW’S BIRTHDAY TO CELEBRATE! Spent the weekend in Chicago celebrating a special guy’s birthday with a couple of friends who made my own very special. My 37th birthday felt like it went on for two weeks—celebrated by and with so many friends new and old. Feeling good about my 38 list. Grateful…
The FGF post for last week and the week before that, that I missed, was originally titled ‘Colombia’, so retitling this one is easy … my week in Colombia was fantastic, gorgeous, hilarious, and unexpectedly a catalyst for many things. Alongside incredible views, friendly people, and (not enough) delicious food, I discovered more about what…
I hit a breaking point today and thank god for yin yoga at BFree. I’m ambitious and a high performer, a leader and someone who can thrive under pressure. But those characteristics are when I am in a state of on. I am truly, deeply an introvert. I need time by myself, I need time…
Y’all there’s too much gratitude for one post! For one week. For one helluva week. It all began with setting up for the baby shower, which honestly was almost as fun as the shower itself as my mom, aunt, and I, with some help from my dad, decorated and tied favors and hung diapers and…
What a freakin’ week. So many super awesome things happened. Last weekend was a million years ago. July flew by. This weekend is going to be awesome. Grateful for a Friday night “one drink” with new friends until 2am Grateful for pickup flag football, even on no sleep still makes me incredibly happy Grateful for…
Epic fun. The 3rd of July Beer Olympics was a smashing success, beyond my wildest dreams. It was so smooth—setup crew with Jersey boo made it happen. Slip flip cup was the favorite event, beer (easter) hunt was hilarious, my tutu made its eighth(?!) annual appearance, the underdogs won, there were influencers and painting and…
