Hey what's up hello! It's a new year and like every other blogger on the planet I'm going to share my 2020 goals. 1.) Spend more time on creative pursuits.

Awe & Wonder
On Tuesday I went to an event that my church, Passion City, hosts monthly called The Grove. It's an all-women worship service essentially and I've only been twice, but my experiences have been incredible. It's Christmastime and this time of year is so special to me, I want to speak on something that I touch … Continue reading Awe & Wonder
Big Life Changes
Hey, it's been a while huh? So big news! I graduated college! That's a pretty big deal! Honestly, college was the longest, wildest, most life-changing experience I've ever been through. These past three and a half years deeply changed me as a person. I learned so much about myself and my role in the... universe? … Continue reading Big Life Changes
Summer Internships
This summer I've had the opportunity to participate in not one, but two internships, based locally in my hometown. I am incredibly lucky to be blessed with the network I have, without which I wouldn't have either opportunity. I love both of my internships because they are both directly related to the career that I … Continue reading Summer Internships

Mondays I'm going to talk about music because I'm a bit of a music snob and I'd love to share what I've been listening to lately! Hope you are all having a good Monday, if … Continue reading Melody Monday
The Only Way Out is Through
Being an adult means doing things you don't want to do. That's been a hard truth to come to terms with. Especially when doing things you don't want to do means tackling your fears head on, which is something I've had to do weekly this semester. And I know logically that I'm not actually climbing … Continue reading The Only Way Out is Through
On: Technology and Unhappiness
I recently read an article that said, "Teens who spend less time in front of screens are happier — up to a point, new research shows" Which got me thinking. Sure, that jibes, in fact I would almost come to expect it. Some of my happiest moments are definitely not tied to my phone. For example, Christmas … Continue reading On: Technology and Unhappiness
