Guess what arrived today?

The official charter sign for my Little Free Library! I'm beyond excited to share more about my library, which I've lovingly named Pink Literary Haven*.

Stay tuned for all the details!

This week has been super hard, and I'm doing my best to not get anxious about the state of the world, but I really believe in what we're doing and our approach. Love the Luigi Mangione story we published. But also love our animal stories. Sometimes it takes a kitten to bring someone into the room.
When Kittens Came to My Prison, I Had Not Petted One in 15 Years
I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass.

God bless the lady who generously offered her 7-11 rewards number. When the cashier asked if I had one, I said no—but she stepped in, letting me use hers and saving me 3 cents on gas.

Me, her and the cashier shared a hearty laugh about it. Teeny tiny experiences like that always make my day. 🤍

I found the perfect birthday card for my neighbor’s daughter, who’s celebrating her second birthday!

No matter the age of the birthday celebrant, I always make sure to get a card. Even if a toddler can't read it now, save the card and gift it to them on a future birthday.

Woman just gave me a compliment in Spanish and when I didn’t understand she went and got someone else to say it to me in English. Forgot the compliment because my heart was overpowered by her getting someone to translate. That was so sweet and just hella gased me for the second half of my workout. 😭

I met the kindest thrift shop owner today. Truly, I’m praying that everything works out for her in life. Though life isn’t always easy, it’s inspiring to meet people who, despite it all, remain good and extend kindness to others. May we all meet people like her and be like her as often as we can. 🤍

👋🏾 I’m picking up my first kitten tomorrow! 🥹 I’m working on making her room as beautiful and cozy as possible. If you have any recommendations for adorable or must-have kitten/cat items, please share the links + recommendations.

I don’t know what it is about blogging, but it’s always been my most therapeutic outlet.

It’s a mental declutter, that helps me reflect, process emotions, and connect with others in ways that feel both healing and empowering.

Grateful for the profound insight, perception, and understanding I have. Thankful for the ability to discern when negative people/ forces arise, and for the wisdom to recognize whether a person is trustworthy and safe.

Yoga, yogurt and journaling. 🤍

Despite battling physical limitations today, I ended on an unexpected, uplifting call from my boss. The conversation left me feeling heard and validated, and appreciated and acknowledged for my strong performance this past week.

🥹 My application to adopt a kitten was approved, and I’ve decided to name her ✨’ Pixel’! ✨ I’m already browsing Etsy for all the cutest pink accessories for her. I’m beyond excited — I even had to pull over on the highway to squeal and celebrate when I got the text message. 🥹 Pictures coming soon!

I received a shoutout from a colleague today, and it made my day. This recognition was exactly what I needed. When I’m focused on meaningful work instead of being tasked with work that feels less significant, it’s easy to lose sight of the impact I’m making.

💖 Mariah, Isis, Sherry and Haley really held me up before and after, and I truly appreciate my girls. 💖

My therapy session today was absolutely perfect! Last week, I sent my therapist a list of things I wanted to discuss to help set myself up for a peaceful week, and all of her strategies worked wonderfully. I took the same approach this week, and the session went just as smoothly.

Woke up feeling renewed.

Happy to begin again, after being affirmed. I’m a passionate person when it comes to all areas of my life, that’ll never change, so as long as I’m being purposeful, I’ll always be passionate. 🤍

It takes one instance of feeling like I can't express myself to you before I never trust you again.

This isn't about disengaging, but about maintaining professional boundaries and safeguarding my emotional well-being.

Even the kindest and most supportive individuals can reveal a different side when perfectionism takes over.

If someone operates from that mindset, be cautious—they will never hesitate to throw you under the bus to protect their own image.
