Reset + Recharge for Fall

With a new season comes new goals and intentions I want to focus on. It’s a good time to check in after a summer of fun, sun and bottomless aperol spritz’s.. so I think there’s no better time to reset + recharge than now. By no means do I do each of the below things every single day but I find that if I write it down and remind myself of the things I want to achieve in order to feel my best I am … [Read more...]

Happy Hour
