This past week I was a guest lecturer at my alma mater to speak about Bullet Journaling with their Advising, Retention, and Career Center. While putting together my presentation, I thought about tips and tricks, words of advice, and sharing some of my favorite spreads. Sometimes, I can say something that may sound inspirational, but […]

Tomorrow I turn 26. And I recognize for so many people they’re thinking “wow she’s so young!” but, holy moly, I’M GETTIN’ UP THERE. Am I stressed about being 26? A little. Am I wishing I could relive 25? Absolutely not. This year has been one for the books. I got a promotion at work, […]
