Hey you,

Ever feel like your week was a combo of wholesome vibes, chaotic detours, and surprise plot twists? Yeah, same. From doggy night shifts to unexpected conversations with old friends, this week reminded me how full life really is—and how much growth hides in the middle of the mess.

Let’s get into this week’s reset:

​

One Thing to Think About This Week

“You are your thoughts.”

Jim Fortin dropped this reminder, and it just hits different. It’s like… “Hey, let’s stop being so mean to ourselves.”

I’ve been catching my thoughts more lately. Watching how quickly I can spiral if I’m not intentional—and just as quickly shift back when I choose to speak kindly to myself. It’s wild how fast your whole vibe can change when you remember: you get to choose your frequency.

​

Celebrate Your Wins

This week, I worked out late. Like 10 p.m. late. Multiple times.

Not ideal. Not glamorous. But necessary.

Because I know what happens when I skip more than two days—I feel drained, foggy, and not like me. So I got it done. And honestly? That’s the kind of consistency that matters most to me right now.

Also, I nudged one of my coaching clients to posting some content this week after they were telling me all the reasons why now is not the time. Guess what though? We said 48 hours, and they did it. Proud coach moment. They posted twice actually!! LFG

​

Productivity Hack of the Week

Bullet Journals are back, baby. Like, deeper this time.

And apparently I have… four journals now.

• One for life​
• One for work
• One 5-Minute Journal​
• One finishing out April in my Purpose Planner​

It sounds chaotic. But it’s been a sanity saver.

Especially the work bullet journal—migrating unfinished tasks each day keeps them from disappearing into the black hole of my brain or the 234293473 meeting notes I have. If you know you know.

Also worth mentioning: I’ve officially hit 30 days in my 5-Minute Journal. Game. Changer. ← Seriously though, waking up with gratitude and closing my evenings with reflection are so amazing.

​

What I’m Into This Week

App: My new Notion recipe tracker. It lets me meal plan, view recipes by category, and finally ditch the ones we didn’t actually like.

Drink: Everyday Dose mushroom coffee. Still obsessed. I swear it kept me upright after waking up hourly with poor Charlie. It tastes just like coffee with no crash and nootropics to keep you going ALL. DAY. LONG.

Youtube: Have you heard of Fred Again? The things he does with music is just…. it just gives me the chills thinking about it. Give this a listen and let me know if you’re feeling something.

​

Life Snapshot

Ledger moment of the week:

We made taco bowls.

He was strapped into the carrier while I cooked, holding a spatula and “mashing” avocados (still in their skin). He also tried to drink from my cup and threw the avocado on the floor. Repeatedly.

He just wants in on all of it, and I love that about him.

Charlie update:

After a rough couple of nights, he’s finally eating again (ground beef > medicine). Hoping for less middle-of-the-night bathroom shifts next week. 3 nights in a row of hourly potty breaks have me having the wildest tiny dreams EVER. My back was hurting and in my dream, I had someone pop my back. Woke up… just a dream. Back still sore.

​

One Last Thing

An old friend called me this week and said my content helped him stay focused while navigating sobriety. He’s been struggling but is turning things around.

And it hit me hard.

Because when people from your past see your present and still feel connected to you—it’s powerful.

It’s easy to doubt yourself online. To wonder if your posts matter. But the people watching quietly? Sometimes they’re the ones who need it most.

So if you’ve been second-guessing whether to share something: do it.

​

Fun P.S.

On Saturday, I went to my buddy Sky’s house to watch a live YouTube masterclass—and let me tell you, I left feeling like I’d been plugged into a lightning bolt.

We watched, we took notes, and afterward we sat and talked through our goals, visions, and what we actually want to create. I felt fully aligned. Like my brain, heart, and purpose all sat down and said, “Yep, this is it.”

I’ve been called to YouTube for a while now. But like many of us, I let the internet tell me what I “should” focus on. And short-form content? Sure, it’s powerful—but I’m a storyteller. I want to take you with me through the mess, the lessons, the little wins, and the behind-the-scenes of building something real.

So if I seem extra fired up right now, it’s because I am. I’ve found my spark again—and YouTube’s about to get a whole lot of it. 💥

​

That’s it for this week, friend.

Whether your week felt like a highlight reel or a blooper montage, I hope this little reset helps you zoom out, breathe deep, and remember: you’re doing better than you think.

Let’s carry this energy into next week—fired up, a little messy, and fully aligned.

And hey, if something in here lit a spark for you, hit reply and tell me about it. I love hearing from you. Always.
