Q&A – May 1 2024

Looks like I lied back in February when I said that I would try to write more; as I haven’t sat and typed words on this blog in almost 3 months. Well, rather than dwell on this, I figured I’d use it as motivation to launch a new format on here called ‘Q&A’ as a […]

Paris Thoughts vol. 2

Continuing from my previous post, here are some ramblings from having the time to self-reflect on how 2022 affected me and what I hope to bring into 2023 from those experiences.

Paris Thoughts vol. 1

The following thoughts are tidbits that came to me while on vacation this past week in Paris, France.

Who Validates You?

So I had a mini-breakthrough yesterday after chatting with a friend of mine in the morning… I am constantly seeking external validation. The context of the conversation was actually in regards to my recent dating experiences, but I realized it extended well beyond that.

So, I lost my job.

I took a gamble, and it didn’t pay off. At the end of this past summer, I left my comfortable gig as Director of Marketing for a men’s fashion brand and took the leap to become VP of Marketing at a plant-based meal delivery company. I was extremely excited at the time as I felt […]

Sticking To Your Goals

So, it’s the time of year again when most people are setting up resolutions that they will quickly give up a few weeks later. We’ve all done it. The new year comes around, we have this burst of energy and inspiration to do better, and then gone… There’s a variety of reasons why people give […]
