February 25, 2023 I am a planner. I enjoy planning and setting goals and simply knowing what I will be doing for the day, the week, etc. My calendar notifications are a constant reminder of appointments, meetings, training times, dinners, and even my fun time! So, the idea of having an “unscripted day” is a […]
January 20, 2023 I struggle with accepting ‘good enough’. To me, it means mediocrity. It means settling.
