Good morning and HELLO FRIDAY!
This week has been a tsunami and it continues today but I am starting the day getting back to yoga and that has me in a much better mood. I haven’t been in months but the Friday Flow with Stephanie at 502 Yoga is one of my favorites and I need the release. I know I shared briefly about the loss my family has been experiencing lately and the grief and anxiety that accompanies that has been a lot over the past year. I am working on a much longer post around the subject and my personal experience but did get several questions about exactly what happened and why I don’t share more of that so I wanted to touch briefly on this.
As someone with a public platform I love to share the in’s and out’s of life but I do take my family and my own personal privacy very seriously. Whether it seems like it or not I am very conscious about what I share surrounding my children, my family, and my friends. It’s not to make anything seem ‘perfect’ or pristine but more so for safety, others privacy, and my own mental health.
One of the greatest gifts of this platform has been sharing my IVF journey and connecting with other women along the way and I plan on sharing more of my health journey and anxiety surrounding that here soon. Just wanted to shed a little light surrounding that and am always happy to chat via DM if you have questions. I also wanted to say thank you for sending in the podcast and book recommendations surrounding grief, I have been making my way through them and appreciate it so much.
I am so looking forward to sweating everything out this morning and then have a busy work day but for some reason Fridays are always easier when the weekend is on the horizon. Sadly Trevor is on call this weekend but my mom is spending time with us and the weather is supposed to be insanely beautiful, I’m talking 80º and sunny!
Alright, let’s get into some fun things from around the web:

I just got this dress in and absolutely love it. I like the Nap dresses but find the length really unflattering on myself (I’m 5’8″ and think they are too short) and this one is much longer, has a better strap IMO, and is much more affordable. Highly recommend!

Hope you all have an amazing weekend!
