2024 Reading List

2024 Reading List

Happy Friday, glow getters! As I continue to ease into the new year and gear up for the big 4-0 in August, I've got an incredible lineup of books planned. Some of you might recall my pride and excitement in reading 12 books back in 2022. While achieving that goal meant the world to me, I've since learned that it's more valuable to take my time and fully digest a book rather than sticking to a timeline. With that in mind, I may or may not get to or through all the books on my list. However, book 1 holds my unwavering commitment, as I know it will leave the most profound impact. So, let's dive into my list, and I'd love for you to join me in exploring these books.

Holding Space for Those Grieving: A Guide to Compassionate Support

Holding Space for Those Grieving: A Guide to Compassionate Support

This post has been on my heart to write for some time now. When I lost my dad in 2020, I was so comforted by how family and friends supported me during such a difficult time. That experience also taught me ways to show up for others, along with things to avoid. Grief is a deeply personal journey, and when someone we care about is navigating the challenging path of loss, it's crucial to offer support in a way that respects their unique experience. Holding space for those grieving requires a delicate balance of presence, empathy, and understanding. In this post, we'll explore meaningful ways to provide comfort and support during such difficult times.

There’s a productivity tool I'm loving, and best of all, it’s right on my iPhone. If you’re anything like me, you probably use the Notes app on your phone a lot.

My 2023 Personal Goals

My 2023 Personal Goals

Alright glow getters, let’s talk about our 2023 goals! I know that January and sometimes even February are reset months, but now that we’re in March, it’s time to start taking action on some of our goals for the year. When it’s comes to goal planning and execution, I like to follow the SMART criteria — Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-Bound. Now, I’ve previously talked about goal planning, but today I want to talk about goal categories.

Loom: Here's Why I Love This Video Creator

Loom: Here's Why I Love This Video Creator

A big focus of the glow getter mantra is a commitment to achieving our goals. One way that helps us to achieve our goals is to have systems and tools in place that allow us to work smarter. A tool that has helped me to do just that is Loom, which I’ve been using faithfully for the last 4 years. Loom is a video tool and a new mode of communication for today’s digital and global workforce, and for personal use as well. You get the focus of asynchronous work (less meetings!) with all the humanity, emotion, and fun of video. Loom allows you to record your camera and screen, and instantly share the video with a link. Simply put it’s a game changer. Since I want the glow getter gang to be equipped to go after your goals, today I’m diving deep in how you can use Loom both personally and professionally.

Daily 7: Invest time and money wisely

Time…365 days, 12 months, 24 hours, 1,440 minutes. Money…something we all spend, and at the same time want to keep and increase. That said, one can't help but to focus on time and money. My focus as of late has been centered around investing my time and money wisely, and sowing seeds that in turn will reap a harvest.

Daily 7: Pour into my family and community

I don't believe that any of us are meant to do life alone. ‘Your people’ aren't the same as mine, but we all have our person/people who are an important part of our lives. The most important people in my life are my family, so loving on, caring for and spending time with them is something I prioritize. Journeying through life with them is my greatest joy.

Fall 2020 Bucket List

Fall 2020 Bucket List

Happy First Day of October! As we kick off quarter 4, I decided to make a Fall bucket list, comprised of goals and fall fun. While Fall staples like carving a pumpkin and roasting smores are on my list, more of my focus is on making the best of these last 92 days left in 2020. I know many have cancelled 2020 out completely because it’s been a rough year, but as the year has shown us things can turn around suddenly. In the case of quarter 4, I hope things turn around for the good. So here are some things on my to do list for this Fall.
