Ever have one of those days that just works? Today wasn’t full of big wins or big news, but the little things all added up. I stayed focused, moved a few projects forward, and even managed to quiet my worries by trusting the process—both at work and with our house build. Sometimes, contentment shows up in the simplest ways: a good conversation, a new productivity trick, and taking tiny steps toward what’s next.

I didn’t quit drinking because I hit rock bottom. I wasn’t an alcoholic. I barely drank at all, honestly. But every time I did, my body let me know it wasn’t okay. Anxiety. Sleepless nights. Stomach issues. The kind of hangover that felt completely out of proportion for what I’d actually had. Two years ago, I decided even “just one drink” wasn’t worth feeling that way anymore. And that quiet decision turned out to be one of the most powerful ones I’ve ever made.

I created these custom GPTs mostly because I wanted to experiment and learn more about how to build them. It’s been a fun way to explore different personalities and styles—from a calm, reflective therapist to an energetic motivator, and even a sarcastic, tough-love “therapist” just for laughs. It’s less about perfection and more about playing around with what’s possible and seeing where it takes me.

What started as a scribbled idea during a quiet night with my husband turned into a daily connection practice—and a whole Instagram account. This post shares the creative spark behind 3 Questions Daily, why it’s more than just cute conversation starters, and how it’s helping people (including us) build deeper, more intentional relationships—one question at a time.

Getting stuck isn’t a sign you’re failing—it’s a sign you’re in the middle of the work that matters. Anatomy of a Breakthrough reminded me that friction is data, not defeat, and that the messy middle is where progress actually takes shape. Whether I’m untangling an AI project at work or navigating a personal goal, I’ve learned to pause, name the stuckness, and take the next small step forward.

Ever had a goal that should be simple but feels impossible? For me, it’s been building a consistent meditation practice. I’m hitting my other goals—career, fitness, personal growth—but meditation? Feels like dragging a boulder uphill.

Inspired by Anatomy of a Breakthrough, I ran a “friction audit” and found emotional, cognitive, and behavioral barriers in my way. Turns out, it’s not just about sitting quietly—it’s about reframing the grind, borrowing from my wins, and managing personal goals like work projects.

If meditation (or any goal) feels like a struggle, this post will help you unpack the resistance, build momentum, and grow through the grind.

Efficiency is the backbone of successful project management. It’s not just about working faster; it’s about making every effort count. As project managers, our ability to streamline workflows, prioritize effectively, and communicate clearly determines whether our projects thrive or falter. By focusing on efficiency, we not only save time and resources but also create a more cohesive, less stressful environment for our teams. In this post, we’ll explore how embracing efficiency can transform your projects and your career.

I’m the girl that puts Christmas decorations up in my house on the first weekend in November. One month of enjoying the happiness that Christmas brings is not nearly enough in my world.

And I’m not unknown to randomly listen to Christmas music or watch Christmas movies on a random Tuesday in April.

This year I thought it would be fun to share my Christmas movie watchlist! It’s one movie a day starting on November 1st until Christmas. Plus one extra as a bonus. Because some days I watch more than what’s on my watchlist for that day. 😉

I recently revisited one of my favorite books, “Mindset” by Carol Dweck, and I’m reminded just how powerful and transformative these insights can be. Whether you’re new to Dweck’s work or could use a refresher, I’m excited to share some key takeaways and how they continue to shape my life.

I’ve followed Ali Abdaal for a while and have really found his work to be inspiring and well-thought-out. I pre-ordered this book and was not disappointed!
