25 Things Learned in 25 Years

I turn twenty-five today which seems like a big milestone for some reason. I don’t know where I thought I’d be at this age, but married with a house, a corgi pup, and a book coming out in 2 months seems pretty much a dream come true. I just felt like getting sappy and sharing some thoughts and lessons that have got me through twenty-five trips around the sun and will carry me on for the rest.

9. Slow evenings > slow mornings

10. A notebook is your greatest tool

11. Do things for the aesthetic

12. Everything comes with time & intention

13. There are labels for how you feel

14. The good people don’t drain you

16. Tattoos are awesome

17. Adults need stuffies too

Hope this helps and inspires :)
