Summer 2022 Bucket List: Family Edition

Happy First Day of Summer! I’m so excited for the next 90+ days of sunshine and fun. Summer has always been one of favorite seasons. Not just because my birthday is in August, but more so because Summer just has such a leisurely and enjoyable vibe in general. It is the season after all where people vacation the most and even school is on break. I was in the first trimester of my pregnancy with the twins last Summer, and I was so sick and in the bed a lot of the time. Needless to say, I intend to be outside this year! I’ll be doing a lot with my family, and here’s a round of up of some things on my summer bucket list.

The Perfect DC Staycation at Yours Truly DC
The Perfect DC Staycation at Yours Truly DC

A couple months ago, I got the urge to plan a babymoon for my husband and I. We hadn’t done a babymoon when I was pregnant with Cameron and Cassidy (not sure if it was even a thing then), so I jumped at the idea to do one this go around with the twins, as this will likely be our last pregnancy. Not to mention, we both really wanted some quality time alone together before becoming a family of 6. So to celebrate these final weeks of pregnancy, we decided to go the route of a weekend staycation in DC, and it was beyond perfect! Today, I’m sharing all the details along with tips for planning your own DC staycation.

We should be our own number 1 priority, and we shouldn’t feel guilty about it or make excuses for not prioritizing ourselves. I’m currently focusing in on the following 5 ways to show up for me - no matter what…

Grace, Grind and Growth
Grace, Grind and Growth

I talk a lot about growth and goals. Today, I want to talk a little bit about another g word — grace. We all should hold ourselves to a standard of grace and not perfection. Often times we are way harder on ourselves than we are on others. I'm working hard to give myself grace, just like I do others. However, I also recognize the dangers of too much grace. If we're not careful, sometimes grace turns into excuses for stagnation. Today, I want to share some of my perspectives on how grace and grind plays into our personal and professional growth.
