Why I wanted to start this blog

In two months I will celebrate (yes celebrate...not sulk, ignore, belittle or cry about) my 26th birthday. Sadly this is how I rang in the BIG 2-5 and honestly it set the tone for the entire year. So in an effort to put forth positive energy and really embrace the goodness and blessings in my life, I want to chronicle what I learned about life, love, friendship and work during this very influential year.

If anyone actually starts reading this, I feel like I should give a brief description of myself (or at least who I am at this point in my life). I am a self proclaimed perfectionist. This has been my battle lately, but stay tuned for how I'm working towards authenticity and vulnerability. I adore my friends and family...super loyal (must be the Scorpio in me). All of the food I eat requires some kind of spice...it's not even a question but a necessity. So bring on the jalapenos, sriracha, tapatio, chalula, salsa..you get the point. I like working out..don't enjoy or love it but it's gotta be done I suppose. Love exploring new places and doing things I've never done before. I am newly married, got a dog, thinking about having kids (so the last person who would ever say this by the way) and feel totally clueless about my career. Welcome to your mid-twenties my friends!

This blog will chronicle all that I've learned and experienced as a 25 year old and all that I have yet to experience as I reign in the last half of these defining years. I hope you all (or even just the one person who might read this) find comfort and connection from some of the things I have on my mind and have experienced. We are on this journey together!

xoxo
Jess
