Loving and living this life in Seattle
Let’s face it. With all the time we have on our hands in the midst of this pandemic, one of the best things we can do with our time is read. I say this after spending countless hours binge watching the latest series, movie, or reality show available on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, HBO Max …
The outbreak of the coronavirus, aka COVID-19, aka “The Rona” (I love my people), has led to widespread isolation as we collectively work to stop the spread of the virus. After watching it shut down an entire region in China, I’m not sure why we were not better prepared to deal with its arrival, but …
I recently took a work trip to New York in the middle of January. I know, that sounds like a bad idea. Ironically, it was unseasonably warm in NYC and I was able to enjoy a stroll through Central Park and a night out with arguably the funnest crew ever. This year, I actually purposed …

I don’t know how many times I say this in any given month, but you only get one life. And we have no idea how long that life will be. I’ve told you my plan is to live to be at least 111 like Bilbo Baggins. The epic party to be thrown in my honor …
I have found myself existing in a very strange space lately. There isn’t much that rattles me. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. Either way, I’m a very even keel person. The past few months I have had to be incredibly intentional to not let my emotions control my …
I love podcast. I listen to them every single day of the week. One day I was listening to one of my faves and thought to myself, “self, you can do this. You should start a podcast!” So I took my advice (I give really good advice on most days) and I created the podcast …
I am slightly addicted to learning and my sense of adventure is kind of epic. Knowing that about myself, I decided to flip the script on the annual goal setting ritual and chart my own course. Behold the annual three to try, three to learn list.
