Going to bed tonight knowing that tomorrow, one of my dreams is coming true or hosting my very first major awards show.

Shout out to those who keep saying I won’t (because I will) and to those who say I can’t - keep watching as I set the stage. ❤️

When I sold my book, my first thought was “I can’t WAIT to do a book talk at Barnes & Nobles.”

Today that dream came true!

Head down and get your copy if you haven’t already. Hell, BUY ANOTHER ONE!

My podcast won not one, but TWO Signal Awards.

I literally can’t stop crying. This is truly the win I needed this week/month/year.

A reminder: do the thing. Put it out.

BET ON YOU. ALWAYS!

Friend just told me that one of Allstora’s book clubs has picked my book for the month of October.

I don’t know why this made me emotional, but it did. Thank you to EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. Who continues to remind me how important work & story is.
