Hey you, This week was a mix of ordinary routines and big reminders. Mom and Kevin left Monday, and it was back to business as usual. Ledger had his 15-month appointment — still in the 90th percentile, still growing like a champ. Watching him learn is like playing Mario Brothers: level up, try the new thing, and occasionally need a distraction before the tantrum boss battle. That got me thinking… maybe that’s all life really is. Distractions, little to-dos, leveling up, and remembering the...

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...

Hey you, Man… how fragile and unpredictable life is. News of big names passing—like Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne—makes you pause and think: if my time came tomorrow, would I feel like I spent it on what mattered most? And funny enough, that thought connected right back to our week at home. We weren’t doing anything flashy—just cleaning the garage, pulling weeds, breaking down recycling, and hanging out as a family in the driveway. Ledger loves a task, so he was in full force, game mode. It...

Hey You, This week was a mashup of firsts: my first week in a leadership role at work (…while out of office), our first family beach trip with another family, and my first time losing my voice in a while. Ledger was out of school, so I took the whole week off with a plan — deep clean the house, check off all the lingering tasks, maybe even sneak in a little quiet time. But then Ledger dropped down to one nap a day and I learned that if you glance at your phone for five minutes, you’re already...

Hey you, This week was a bit of everything—family chaos, coffee runs, jogging stroller drama, and a much-needed reset with myself. I learned (again) that sometimes, the biggest shifts start with the smallest frustrations… or in my case, a $20 Facebook Marketplace fail. Let’s reset, shall we? One Thing to Think About This Week Transparency matters. At work, I caught myself typing something based on assumptions—and deleted it. I paused. Asked the right question. Dug deeper. And that moment...

Hey you, This week’s been a tug-of-war between everything: work deadlines, business dreams, family life, fitness goals—and honestly, just trying to remember what matters most. It’s been a little blurry. A little messy. A little… off. But something shifted. And I think it started with that 3.25-mile run (or that much needed phone call). One Thing to Think About This Week What if the version of you you’ve been missing is just waiting for you to show up again? I’ve been ghosting myself lately....

Hey you, This week was a heavy one. It reminded me how quickly life can change—and how in the moments that matter most, everything becomes really simple. A gas leak scare, a heartbreaking goodbye to Charlie, and a lot of moments that made me pause and realize what truly matters: the people (and pets) I love. Let’s reset together. One Thing to Think About This Week When everything feels uncertain, what truly matters becomes crystal clear. The gas line in our kitchen made a terrifying noise,...

Hey you, This week was the kind that makes you grateful and a little frazzled at the same time. We road-tripped back home from OKC, skipped the usual Sunday reset, and let’s just say… the week definitely felt that. From sourdough blueberry muffins and stolen iPads to home workouts and birthday celebrations—we had a little bit of everything. Let’s reset together. One Thing to Think About This Week “If you don’t stop to sharpen your saw, you’re no good.” Skipping our usual Sunday reset seemed...

Hey you, This week was a full-blown rollercoaster of toddler triumphs, road trip chaos, family magic, and a pool-day detox we didn’t know we needed. There were high-fives that almost happened, coughs that overstayed their welcome, sugar-induced regret, and a homemade DEKA style workout that reminded me—I can still crush it when I make space to move. Let’s reset, shall we? One Thing to Think About This Week Confidence doesn’t always look loud. Sometimes it’s quiet courage in disguise. Watching...
