This is your #IndependentGirlSummer reminder ✨ This is your #IndependentGirlSummer reminder ✨

This is a phrase I said to myself back in May, and has been stuck in my head ALL summer long. Aspiring to do things differently - the way you want to do them - and challenge the rhythm by which you live your life.... is uncomfortable. It's not always 'acceptable' to be the girl sitting alone at a bar surrounded by large groups. The girl reading a book at home when Instagram feeds show nothing but good times on a Friday night. The girl booking a solo trip because no one else could come but you desperately want to go. It's usually... never easy.

But if there's ever a small, small voice in your head telling you "hey, this is what I want. not that." 

I hope you'll listen! 

Tell me - how are you spending your #IndependentGirlSummer

Desperately trying to slow down summer by reliving Desperately trying to slow down summer by reliving these moments 🥲

I've been in California much more than I expected this summer, which isn't a bad thing. I love the west coast especially when the days are longer and the weather is warm enough for my Hawaii skin 🙈 So far this summer I've:

- Experienced a heat wave in Phoenix (& cooled off by sipping wine in Scottsdale with by bff) 🍷
- Visited family back home in Oahu
- Saw a jazz concert at the Hollywood Bowl and picnicked with friends!
- Camped in Yosemite with my friends visiting from the Czech Republic
- Went swan boating in Echo Park 
- Took myself to the beach more times than I can count

With August around the corner, take some time this week to take stock of how you've been spending this season before it's over!! Have you savored the long days? Taken any time off? Spent warm summer evenings with friends? 🙏🏽 Felt the sun on your skin? Read a new book?

When guilt creeps in about spending time doing things when I should be catching up on work or emails, I remind myself that these are the moments I'll remember long after the summer season is over.

The pieces of life that make us feel whole aren't the pixels on our screens, after all! 

Writing this as I savor my last full week in LA for a while. going to be moving a lot more these next few weeks and I am feeling excited but a bit bittersweet!

"Find a job that you love and no day will feel lik "Find a job that you love and no day will feel like work" 👀

I have told myself this sooo much. Anyone else? 

As much as I spent the last decade of my life reciting this mantra.... sometimes, work is work. Sure, you can love your job. It's awesome when you do!!! But don't let hustle culture tell you that a good career can ever replace taking time off and cultivating a ✨ life you love outside of work ✨

Pick up that hobby you stopped because life got crazy. 
Try something that scares you.
Call that friend you haven't seen in ages.
Take the trip. 
Use the PTO. 

It's a short, sweet life y'all. Love your career, love your work, but don't forget to love who you are outside of it, too.

❤️ If you agree
