I woke up feeling so heavy this morning, as I’m sure a lot of others did today too.⠀
.⠀
Hearing about the loss of Kobe Bryant, his daughter, and the others onboard that helicopter yesterday is truly heartbreaking.⠀
.⠀
This morning, I couldn’t help from thinking of the family members who woke up today, had a split second before they remembered what their new reality is. I cannot imagine the pain they must be feeling.⠀
.⠀
It’s unusual for me to be able to feel so much sadness for someone I’ve never met. But it’s something I experience quite often, as I’m sure other empaths can relate. (INFP at your service.)⠀
.⠀
Life is so fleeting. Every morning when we wake up, put our feet on the ground and stand up is a blessing. Don’t take it for granted. Tell people you love them as much as you can.⠀
.⠀
Hugs to anyone who’s struggling today about anything, a loss, a conflict, a bad day. You are loved 💕⠀

✨Keeping it Analog✨⠀ .⠀ On a trip to Berli

✨Keeping it Analog✨⠀
.⠀
On a trip to Berlin over New Year’s, I kept spotting these film photo booths and was loving it. We used one and it was so fun to get our strip of photos still wet from the developer!⠀
.⠀
Something you may not know about me is I went to art school for photography for two years.⠀
.⠀
During my time there I spent the majority of my days in the darkroom (both b&w and color). I also met one of my best friends there as well (@jennifercatherinephotography)⠀
.⠀
Film is a dying art. And I get it. It’s time consuming. It’s expensive. But something about it is so romantic and timeless. Like taking a train, writing a letter, listening to an album on vinyl.⠀
.⠀
It’s like these ways of life we’ve replaced with more immediate solutions, when we do use them again, remind us to slow down and be present.⠀
.⠀
There is a feeling that can’t be explained, but things that are made with intent and legit by human hands have such depth to them.⠀
.⠀
The excitement of watching a print develop before your very eyes in the darkroom is thrilling. Especially when it’s a shot you remember taking and being like “that one will be amazing, I can just tell.”⠀
.⠀
I don’t pick up my film camera as much as I’d like. I grab my iPhone like most of you and am amazed at the quality of camera I can carry in my back pocket. But I hope for myself, this year I can remind myself to slow down and be more present. (I also dream of having a little darkroom in our basement someday!)⠀
.⠀
Pick up the camera. Read that book. Listen to an album and not an algorithm playlist. Remind yourself that just because it’s easier doesn’t always mean it’s better.⠀
.⠀
Is there any old school thing that you still love and enjoy?⠀
.⠀

✨Don’t look back, you’re not going that way✨⠀
.⠀
Hard to believe that not only another year has gone by, but an entire decade.⠀
.⠀
These past ten years have given me so much. I have grown so much as an individual, as a partner, as a friend.⠀
.⠀
The ups and downs life gives us, they are all gifts. Even if in the moment we don’t see it or understand it.⠀
.⠀
I love and appreciate all of it, and look forward to what these next 10 years bring me as well.⠀
.⠀
Happy New Year to you all💕⠀

🎅🏻It’s Christmas time in the city!🎅🏻

🎅🏻It’s Christmas time in the city!🎅🏻⠀
.⠀
In New York for a night with my mom who has never been to NYC ever. Bringing her at Christmas time feels so special.⠀
.⠀
Something I’ve not shared before is that my mom is in a wheelchair. She’s an amputee and has been since I was 15.⠀
.⠀
Traveling with someone wheelchair bound poses a unique set of challenges most people don’t think about, but there’s some things you can do to help!⠀
.⠀
✨If you’re waiting on a corner to cross an intersection, don’t stand in the way of the ramp unless you need to go down it.⠀
.⠀
✨When possible, take the stairs! Waiting for an elevator to go only 1-2 floors up/down taking space from someone handicap is frustrating and not cool.⠀
.⠀
✨If you can, don’t use the handicap stall in a restroom unless you must. Wheelchairs cannot fit in regular stall door ways, and there is usually only one handicap stall.⠀
.⠀
✨Hold the door! If you can, always hold the door open for someone in a wheelchair. It is deeply appreciated!⠀
.⠀
✨Lastly, be mindful of your surroundings. Something I always notice is people will walk right over people in chairs without realizing because they are lower than most. Keep an eye out in crowded spaces for those in wheelchairs.⠀
.⠀
Thankfully I’m a pro at navigating crowds with my mom’s chair, but it’s definitely a thing and can be difficult.⠀
.⠀
That being said I wouldn’t trade this time with her for anything and am so pumped to show her the city!⠀
.⠀

HOW IS IT DECEMBER??⠀
.⠀
It seems like I was just wandering the canals of Amsterdam a couple weeks ago, but here we are!⠀
.⠀
I took a bit of a content hiatus recently from my blog & page. Part intentional, part not.⠀
.⠀
Have been taking some time to do some learning and research for my blog, SEO and to focus on what I want to be writing about and sharing.⠀
.⠀
I am looking forward to Christmas time and spending NYE in Berlin.⠀
.⠀
Have any of you guys been to Berlin? If so, leave me all of the tips and places to go / eat / do below! 🇩🇪⠀

Have you ever lost someone you love?⠀ .⠀ Death

Have you ever lost someone you love?⠀
.⠀
Death sucks. There’s no way around it.⠀
.⠀
I’ve experienced my fair share of loss over the years, and while I am still processing a lot of it, I’m proud of how far I’ve come in healing my grief.⠀
.⠀
I know this isn’t what I normally share, but I wanted to be more vulnerable for a change. Life isn’t just pretty photos and trips around the world. In fact, it mostly isn’t that.⠀
.⠀
The end of October is a rough time for me, and I wanted to share a blog post about how I have learned to cope with grief and loss.⠀
.⠀
I hope that it is helpful for you or someone you know, and it would mean a lot to me if you let me know if you liked reading something more real on my blog this week.⠀

💕5 Years of Marriage!💕⠀ .⠀ It’s crazy

💕5 Years of Marriage!💕⠀
.⠀
It’s crazy to me how fast time truly does go. Getting to marry my best friend truly was a dream come true.⠀
.⠀
I’m really proud of the marriage @bt and I have been able to create together. When people say marriage is work, I think it gets misconstrued. I’d like to think of it more as marriage is the opportunity for someone else to help you break out of old patterns and continue to grow.⠀
.⠀
For five years of marriage, I’m going to share five things that I’ve found are important and helpful in regards to long term relationships.⠀
.⠀
1. Find out each others love language. There are 5 of them, and it helps so much to know how your partner best feels love from you.⠀
2.Don’t stop dating. Just because you’re married doesn’t mean you shouldn’t put in the effort you once did while you we’re dating.⠀
3. Don’t fight dirty. No matter how much conflict you have - don’t use words to bring down the other person. In the grand scheme of things, whatever conflict you’re having, it’s most likely trivial in the big picture.⠀
.⠀
4. Give each other space to grow. Long term relationships bring out the hurts, traumas and patterns of our pasts. It’s actually one of the best things even if it doesn’t feel like it. Support each other in ways to further your personal growth and growth together.⠀
5. Never forget why you fell in love in the first place. Life gets hard, stressful, difficult. It’s easy to let life’s stresses get in the way of your relationship. Always remind yourself of why you fell in love in the first place, you’re on the same team.⠀
.⠀
I’m so grateful I have the marriage I do. I never take it for granted. Years of traveling the globe and working hard together to create the life we live, I couldn’t ask for more.⠀
.⠀
Never settle. Trust your heart. Fight for what’s important no matter how hard it gets.⠀
.⠀
.⠀

🍁HAPPY FIRST DAY OF FALL!🍁⠀
.⠀
Although, I’ve not got my boots on quite yet. It’s still 90° here on the east coast!⠀
.⠀
I am definitely ready for sweater weather that’s for sure. Bring on the pumpkins, haunted hayrides and cozy nights.⠀
.⠀
Tell me, does it feel like fall where you are right now?⠀

POST VACATION BLUES / MOTIVATION⠀
.⠀
I tend to feel pretty depleted after a fun trip. It usually takes me some time to get back into my regular routine & the swing of things.⠀
.⠀
We had such a full on exciting summer. Between my birthday extravaganza in Tulum, living on a tour bus for 2 months (35 cities in 48 days) & a really awesome family trip to London, normal life feels so slow in comparison!⠀
.⠀
That being said, I am really excited for Fall, getting my routine back and getting really motivated. I’ve made some Fall goals for my weekly schedule, and I wanted to share them here as a form of accountability & it being real.⠀
.⠀
✨Working out 3 x a week. Pilates twice a week & Soul Cycle once a week!⠀
✨Go to a co-work office once a week to blog, plan & execute blog goals (Staying focused working at home can be difficult for me)⠀
✨Call my friends on a more regular basis. (I’m looking at you @jennifercatherinephotography & @embracethespace!)⠀
✨Sign Scout up for a dog agility course. Aussies are great at it, and will be a fun way for us to bond.⠀
✨Spend a couple hours a week at a local coffee shop answering emails & completing other admin work. (Again, I tend to be more productive when I can’t be distracted!)⠀
.⠀
These are just a few adjustments I am adding to my weekly routine. I am looking forward to trying out some new things!⠀
.⠀
How do you get yourself motivated again when you’ve fallen out of your regular routine?⠀
.⠀

🔥 THE BURNING MAN FOMO IS REAL🔥⠀
.⠀
Burning Man begins in just a few short days and I super wish @BT and I were going back!⠀
.⠀
It is still one of the most incredible and unique experiences I’ve ever had.
.⠀
I learned a lot after my first Burn and there are definitely some things I’d do differently the next time (sleeping in a teepee isn’t for me 😂)
.⠀
I have a blog post from last year that touches on some of my first Burning Man mistake. If you’re headed to the desert for the first time this year, be sure to check it out. (link in bio!)
.⠀
I revisit BM in my mind so often and the memories I made that week I’ll treasure forever. I look forward to when the time is right for us to go back.
.⠀
Have you ever been to Burning Man? And if not - would you ever go?
.⠀

“I travel continuously, and I see many cities, but there is nowhere like London.”
– Norman Foster
.
Back in one of my favorite cities for the week as am soaking up the sunshine while it lasts! (Forecast is not as great tomorrow 😂)
.
There is something truly magical about the vibes in London. I adore the people, the history and everything it has to offer.
.
What are your favorite London recommendations? Always looking for new spots 🇬🇧
