To Fail Is To Succeed

I’m back!  I’ve taken a little break from writing my blog to focus on some side hustles, but I couldn’t let 2019 end without posting one more time. New Year’s Eve is always a good time to reflect on the year we’re finishing, but to also look forward to the coming year.  I’m not a […]

Personal Style

We all have our own personal style.  Whether or not you know it – or would like to admit it – there is a reason behind every choice you make in deciding what to wear each day.  It may be because of the color, the cut, or for the comfort, but no matter the reason, […]

Design

I know I’ve mentioned this fact in other posts, but I’ll say it again – I love design.  All disciplines of design.  I’m especially drawn to home design, fashion, and art.  I’ve been dabbling in all 3 as much possible this year in my quest to find my next career, but most recently I’ve been […]

Getaways are Good

What a difference a week makes!  I took a friend up on an invitation to get out of town for a few days at the beginning of this week, and it was a breath of fresh air.  Literally.  We were at her home in the mountains (a relief from the current heat and humidity in […]

I’ve been having a bit of writer’s block lately.  It’s like my mind is going in so many directions that I’m finding it hard to focus.  One of the recurring questions that keeps running through my head is – How is it possible that this year is more than halfway over?  We only have 5 […]

Many may overlap, but ultimately, we can put the people we know in at least one of these categories.  I […]

Gratitude

Things can change in the blink of an eye.  A friend of mine just went to the beach with her husband for a long weekend, and they ended up spending the entire time in the hospital.  Her husband came home with a spinal injury, and he is now on a long road to recovery.  Thankfully, […]

Some of My Favorites

I’ve had many people ask me for recommendations on several different things ranging from clothing and accessories, to workouts and spray tans, so I decided to dedicate this post to a few of my favorites.  Only one tip exclusively applies to the Atlanta area (most are accessible no matter where you live); and while most […]

Birthdays

Our goal is to keep having them, right?  So, why do so many of us start dreading each one as we get older?  When we’re younger, we have those milestones that we look forward to, like “Sweet 16”, and the big “21st birthday so we can get rid of our fake IDs”…  But, then comes […]

Kära 2.0

 “You’re so brave!” and “How inspiring!” are what I hear most of the time once I tell someone I’ve left my career as a dentist to follow my creative passions.  However, I also hear things like “I wish I could do that,” or “That must be nice.”   So I feel the need to share a […]
