Whew. These videos are taking way longer than I expected.
I was in the editing cave all day yesterday, tweaking, trimming, and fine-tuning. And while I’d hoped to have them ready by now, it’s looking like they’ll officially premiere on Monday.
Progress is progress, though. One day at a time, right?
Once the new videos are live, I will be able to shift gears and get back to a regular work schedule. It’s been a whirlwind with the move, the unpacking, and all the life admin that comes with major transitions.
But I’m feeling more hopeful—and more like myself—with each passing day.
Also…my birthday’s next Wednesday! And my best friend Drew’s too!!! 🥳🎂🎉🎁
To celebrate, I’m offering a 25% discount on all new paid subscriptions for anyone who wants to join the party, support my work, or just say “Happy Birthday” with a digital high-five and a little extra love.

Keep calm and keep going…one day at a time!
