here’s why I love halloween

Halloween is a beautiful reminder that we’re all capable of reinvention. It invites us to step outside our everyday norms and become whoever—or whatever—we’ve dreamed up. It’s a celebration of imagination, a night when creativity truly takes the spotlight.

As for me, I’m planning to be a fashion-forward version of Gerald from Hey Arnold!…assuming I can pull the fit together in time.

reminder: you have permission to change

Good morning sunshine,

You might not hear this enough, but you’re free to change, anytime you want.

Just because you were one way yesterday doesn’t mean you’ve gotta stay that way today.

Life is a playground, and you’re allowed to try new things, to start fresh, to be bold, to go after dreams you maybe didn’t feel ready for until now.

Here’s the thing: the world has all these quiet rules about what you should do and who you should be, but guess what? You get to decide.

And if there’s a spark in you, a whisper of something new or a different path calling your name, listen to it. It’s worth exploring.

your feelings are valid

Your emotions? They’re a compass.

Don’t run from them.
Feel them, study them, let them lead you to your truth.
But remember, even feelings fade.

They’re just your instincts reacting to the world around you.

So name what you feel.
Spot the trigger.
And pause to reflect before taking action.

be careful what you practice

Be careful what you practice
Because you don’t want to master something
That doesn’t align with your truest desires.

Release the worries.
Release the fears.

Let go of the harsh self-talk.
And set your sights on what truly lights you up.

Something to ponder: How can you take better care of yourself?
