November 2022

November has been a super busy month at work. In the past I may have resented the long hours and the grinding work; but I find my industry, my company, my colleagues, and I suppose the work itself actually very nurturing and rewarding. I'm grateful that I'm heard and have the opportunity to collaborate and [...]

October 2022

What a busy month. October has been work work work, so having some relaxing chill time has been amazing. Having a dog has also really helped me stay present and in the moment.

April 2022

Spring has sprung! April has been bringing me lots of nature, blooming flowers, birds, and sunshine. It has been a super busy month - I worked 18 days straight - but, perhaps surprisingly, I haven't been as burnt out as one might expect.
