Three Self-Care Goals for Fall and Beyond
Although I have a hard time deciding what my favorite season actually is (definitely NOT winter), fall definitely has so many things about it to love. The colors. The slowing down. The coziness.

There are, however, a select few favorites that have lead me to major “aha” moments and continue to offer me strong guidance in my everyday life. So, I thought I’d share five here that have been huge for me, and…
