  • Monday 5: Self-compassion & other things I’m excited about

    This weekend was another action filled one with both family on my side and on Nicholas’ side in town. After a quick trip to Sullivan’s Island with the Cundiffs, my brother, my sister, her boyfriend and I all picked up my dad from the train station and had dinner together. The next morning my brother…

  • Monday 5: Obedience & other things I’m excited about this week

    This weekend included the first lazy Saturday I’ve had in a while and it was amazing. We also got drinks with friends Friday evening, I had my first bachelorette party Saturday night and yesterday we paddle boarded all the way to Shem Creek! It took us a couple of hours, between the ride there, the drink…

  • What I wish I had known about my parents’ divorce

    I think my generation has become very guarded and as I’ve gotten older I’m starting to understand why. From 1960 to 1980, after the no-fault divorce bill was passed (saying that you could get a divorce without proving spousal wrongdoing), the divorce rate more than doubled. A lot of us millennials and some from those in…

  • Monasteries & other things I’m excited about this week

    Happy Monday! This week is finally starting to feel like Fall in Charleston and I’m so excited. I feel like I can start to actually do Fall things and wear Fall clothes without feeling silly. This weekend we celebrated the first cooler weather with a bonfire and s’mores, so fun! Yesterday we ventured out to a…

    Happy Monday! I hope this weekend was lovely and restful. I certainly got a lot of sleep which was wonderful! We also caught up over dinner with some friends Saturday evening and yesterday I got to go to the Fun Nun bowl fundraiser which was a great time. I also went to one of my…

  • Monday 5: Childlike-ness & other things I’m excited about this week

    This weekend we tried out a new brewery called Two Blokes with our friend Stephen. We had some good beer and discussion before Nicholas had to go back since he had to be at the hospital at 6:30 the next morning! Saturday I enjoyed some beach time with friends and Nicholas and I walked on…

  • Monday 5: Salsa dancing & other things I’m excited about this week

    Happy Monday! It’s another rainy one here in Charleston…definitely going to need some extra enthusiasm to make it through the day. This weekend we had some good times meeting up with friends, beach bumming and spending time with my family. We made it to brunch at a spot called Butcher and Bee downtown Charleston which…

  • 11 things I would tell my younger self

    I still know most of the words from Taylor Swift’s ‘Fifteen’ by heart; seven years after I turned 15 and listened to it on the bus heading to school my sophomore year. There’s something really powerful about looking back on life and being able to share a thing or two that you’ve learned with people…

  • Monday 5: Baseball & other things I’m excited about this week

    This weekend was another fun one in Charleston. It was nice to be back home since last weekend I was out of town visiting family. On Friday we met up with some of Nicholas’ residency friends at a spot called Cooper River Brewery. It had a laid back environment with cement floors inside and some…

  • Monday 5: Togetherness & other things I’m excited about this week

    Baby breath flowers I bought these for the first time yesterday and was blown away at how much I loved how they looked. They remind me of flowers you would pick on a field and add such a simple elegance to any room. Fresh flowers are one of those simple pleasures that can make a…
