I often wonder about timing and why things happen when they happen. Even if it’s small, I don’t believe in coincidences. Lately I’ve been a bit overwhelmed and stressed. We’ve had a lot going on these past few months. And now, thanks to the weather change and our son getting sick, I’m sick 😩 Having a head cold + my normal shitty allergies is not fun. And I’m thinking – maybe this is a message. Maybe my body is telling me to slow down and rest. That makes perfect sense to me. So I’m taking it easy and focusing on getting better because I cannot afford to get worse. So here’s to listening to your inner voice and recognizing that timing is everything. Happy Friday ✨

I said this to a friend today that is feeling very overwhelmed and stressed. As I wrote it, I repeated it again in my head and thought it was pretty damn clever. I told myself I would take my own advice and remember that we don’t need to be moving so fast all the time. Whether we are running a business, have a family to take care of, or just have a lot going on (or maybe all 3!), it’s important that we slow down and be present in the moments we create and share. Getting lost in the ‘busy’ sucks. We are living our lives day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute…and it all goes by so fast. Too fast. Why not ‘be’ in all the moments? Like I told my friend, breathe and pause when you need to. Our lives are so precious and when we look back on memories, it’s an amazing feeling to be able to say you were truly in them, taking it all in. Because we are all worth it.
