Be Where Your Feet Are

Hey you, This week was about presence. My mom and stepdad Kevin came into town for my mom’s birthday, and we kept it simple: family time, good food, pool hangs, and a lot of being where our feet were. No big agendas, just slowing down and enjoying life together. Phones down. More living, less scrolling. That was the goal. One Thing to Think About This Week If you’re not here, you’re there. We all know how easy it is to drift out of the moment, but this weekend we tried to really make a point to really be present. Whether it was Ledger watching an espresso machine like it was Disneyland, conversations that stretched too long because no one checked the time, or appreciating old architecture in downtown Buda—that’s the good stuff.
Productivity Hack of the Week Stop stacking thoughts in your head. If something pops up—whether it’s “buy dog food,” “text so-and-so,” or “look into that gym class”—don’t drop everything to do it right then, and don’t try to remember it later. Just jot it down. Pen + paper, Notes app, Reminders app—whatever works. That way, you can stay present in the moment instead of drifting off into task mode. Later, when you’d normally be scrolling socials, open your notes, review your list, and move things into your calendar. Small effort, big clarity.
One Last Thing Phones can wait. People can’t. Hanging at the house, making cocktails and drinking Brez, snacking on chips and guac, dogs running around, Ledger keeping us busy, and just chatting about nothing and everything all at once. That’s family. 👉 What’s one moment this week where you can go phones down and be fully present? Hit reply and tell me—I’d love to hear. Let’s all plan to crush the week ahead! Talk soon. 💛 Trina P.S.

Hey you, This week was a mix of wins, lessons, and a little bit of chaos — just how I like it. I got promoted at work (still riding that high 🙌), crushed a 6-mile run I was so close to skipping, and had one of those simple, joy-filled moments that reminded me what all this “balance” stuff is about. We stopped by our neighbor’s house before a community event, and Ledger met their dog, Denver. They became instant best friends — running around, laughing, playing fetch. He hasn’t had a fetch...
Hey you, I did a thing. I registered for the Austin Marathon. Blame (thank!) Zane hyping me up, the video of the 80-year-old Ironman finisher, my neighbor reminding me you can walk-jog it, and my bestie Mike saying he’ll run it at my pace if he’s free. 🥹 Community is everything—and honestly, it’s why I fell in love with running in the first place. Also… Mads started running too. Heart = full. One Thing to Think About This Week Borrowed belief is still belief. When your own motivation dips,...
Hey you, We’re back home in Austin, Texas. We got in last night around 7:30 p.m.—too late to see Ledger before bed—but we got our morning snuggles in today, and that alone made the whole trip worth it. This week was all about family, celebration, and a little bit of altitude-induced humility. We flew to Colorado Springs for my cousin’s wedding, where I had the honor of being a groomswoman. One Thing to Think About This Week Weddings always remind me of what really matters—connection,...
