When you work a job you dislike, you’re always looking forward to 5pm. Or Friday. Or the next holiday break.

When I first started this newsletter, I was on top of getting my emails scheduled the week before. Come Saturday morning, it would send out automatically and I wouldn’t have to worry about it. Lately… this hasn’t been the case 😅 I’ve been working on several different things over the past few months, and it’s…

As I thumbed through the pages, I found my “first ever journal entry” dated 4-3-2013. 10 Years of Journaling That marks 10 YEARS of writing down my thoughts in a journal. That’s so wild…
When clay bakes and hardens, it can no longer be shaped. In fact, if you try to force hardened clay to move too much – it will break and shatter. It will crumble. The potter needs softened clay that is willing to transform in order to create a beautiful work. What “Shape” Are You In?…
