Brought Nashville to New York.

I told you I'd be wearing these boots to death! I first wore them around the house and then on a coffee run but didn't style them. Dear reader when I wore this outfit outside I don't think I had so many eyes on me. A guy even tried to hit on me from his car. That made for a good laugh!

Oh Dolly…

FINALLY WORE THE BOOTS!!! Felt like a queen out there and several ladies had to know the story behind them. I wore them with paper bag denim jeans from Zara and a Dolly Parton shirt to keep on theme. I didn't have a bucket bag readily available so a tote bag did the trick. Add some sunglasses and I took on the city with all the confidence in the world.

Honestly…

If you were to tell the woman in this photo about the kind of year 2024 would turn out to be, she would likely laugh in disbelief and then cry out of both joy and sadness, but ultimately laugh again. It’s been one of the most transformative years of my life thus far, and it is nowhere near its conclusion. As I gaze at her, I can't help but marvel at all the incredible growth and the inner strength that radiates from her every day.

Travel: Nashville

What can I say? Nashville filled my soul.

I’d debated this trip the entire summer. I’m glad I was able to figure it out. Nashville gave me food for the soul (my belly too!). The people, the food, the live music — it all fed my soul in ways I can't explain. I've had a rough year and while I traveled it was travel not for myself per se. I always had something to do. I came here with no real plan. I had to put the organizer down and just try to go with the flow. It led my feet all over Nashville. What an experience. I'll never forget it.

maybe ally...sees “Someone Spectacular".

It is a simple concept that dives into grief, hope, faith & pain. What happens when six people go to grief counseling and their grief counselor doesn't show up? It seems so simple. Take a vote. They end up starting without their counselor but then with no one to facilitate properly, the class gets deeper than expected. It’s funny & thought-provoking.
