Blog-tember Challenge // Day 3: Summer Favorites

I first heard about Blog-tember on the Chasing Creative podcast (Episode 4 with Leah Van Ert) and that was like last month. Well because it's September now it popped up in my Instagram feed and I have been wanting to blog more, so I'm jumping in a couple days late—and now a day behind—to the … Continue reading Blog-tember Challenge // Day 3: Summer Favorites

But there comes a time when I've planned too much and made too many lists and taken too many notes, sat through too many classes, live events, and webinars..."

Ripple Effects

The coolest thing happened today. I jumped. Off of a 7 or 8 foot high rock into the North Fork of the American River just past the Foresthill Bridge. It was one of the most terrifying, fun, courageous things I've done in awhile. The thing is: the majority of the time I sat on that … Continue reading Ripple Effects
