This one’s light, real, and a little bit ridiculous in the best way.

I showed up ready to share a few stories from the trenches—some funny, some a little gross (parenting, right?), and all with the hope that you’d feel just a little less alone in this wild life of ours.

We talked about:

  • 🧯 Levi’s new hobby with matches (and yes, I’m taking suggestions).
  • 🍋 My sad little lemon tree and how it became a metaphor for this burnt-out end-of-summer feeling.
  • ⏰ The specialist appointment that didn’t happen—and the spectacular mental gymnastics I did to make sure it wasn’t “my fault.”
  • 💆‍♀️ Why I’m fantasizing about massages, cafes, and beach days (and putting out a casual call for local beach buddies).
  • 🌀 The importance of marking transitions with a little intention, especially when we’re crawling out of survival mode.

Whether you're closing out summer, still deep in the marathon, or somewhere in between—I hope you leave this one with a little more curiosity and compassion for yourself.
