My life has been super full in the last few months. Ergo the absolute absence of blog posts. Sorry bout that peeps. I might almost say too full at times, but I would never ever say that because in an avalanche of crazy busy wonderful, there was no time to be overwhelmed. Overwhelm doesn’t happen. […]

manifesting miracles: how to designate soul vs. ego
New York is perfect in the fall. Perfect. Posh peeps back from the beach, flirty skirts framed by boots replacing sandals.
