A life update is just a bit overdue I’d say.

It’s been more than a hot second since I’ve published anything on the blog. To be honest, I wasn’t motivated. It feels weird too admit that seeing as I created this space out of complete motivation 3 years ago. Then life started happening and I needed to chill a bit. I think the hiatus is going to be a major positive for this little passion project of mine. I’ve got content ideas flowing freely once again and I have a renewed desire to put my thoughts out into space. You’ll start to sense a slight shift from how things have been: 75% fashion, 15% fitness and 10% everything else. Don’t worry, I didn’t lose any love for clothes and styling but the need to make that such a priority for myself has shifted to an extent. In an effort to keep this somewhat short and sweet, I’ve decided to break down what’s been going on into 3 quick categories for y’all!

Personal

It’s no secret that Kyle and I bought a lot last September…well now we’re on the downhill slope of the building process. Things are finally moving along and I have some really fun collaborations lined up in the home/interior design realm. More to come on all things home next week! In the last 2 months I ran 2 half marathons, finally setting a new PR in late April in Toledo & breaking the 1:45 mark. Made two trips to Texas. Was enough to tag along with Cassidy on her work trip to Florida. I laid out at the rooftop pool working all day while she was in conferences. Rough situation. 😉 Our first few weddings of the season have come and gone–4 more to go–and we’ve knocked out a bunch of projects on our current house in preparation to sell. The dogs are great and are still our ‘kids’ at the moment.

Work

Back in April I started a new gig and I. AM. LOVING. IT. It’s a true Marketing role {finally} and I get to work from home. Kind of the most ideal situation like ever. Basically I am supporting 4 Chief Marketing Officers and their clients with strategy, social media, brand awareness, etc. Being able to do something I love, touch multiple industries and learn from some incredibly creative and innovative minds is super refreshing. It’s been too long since I last felt a real ‘fit’ in the career world and I couldn’t be happier. Plus taking conference calls from my sunny patio doesn’t hurt.

Play

Free time is kind of a foreign concept for me. I feel like we constantly have things going on. Obviously I’m not the only one who feels that way. Between designing the new house, the new job, quick weekend trips and family commitments, there hasn’t been a lot of time for spontaneity. Which sucks a little since I love just randomly popping over to the lake for a paddle board session. But busy is good so I shouldn’t even elude to being crabby about that! 🙂 Don’t worry though, I’ve managed to go to a few concerts, enjoyed a few awesome weddings, celebrated Kyle & I’s 6th Anniversary at the cutest little winery, ran a fun 5k with friends and have spent lots of time out in the sun!

Ok, now y’all are caught up on my little life update. I promise consistency this month. PROMISE PROMISE. See ya tomorrow, friends. xox
