  1. The world loves to speed up in autumn, but I’m choosing to slow down. I'm crossing a few things off my weekend to-do list and giving myself permission to do less. I hope you'll join me! 🛑🛋️ #SlowLiving #PositivityClub

  2. Sunday at the library 📚

    Took the kids to the public library after Mass. It was supposed to be a quick trip, but you know how that goes—going to the library is hardly ever quick with four kids in tow. 😂

    Here are a few of the books the kids checked out. 📚💜

    Zephaniah (9) loves Vox books. He likes to follow along with the narrator reading the book aloud.

    Vox books has helped him with his reading skills, too!

    Zechariah (11) always checks put at least one Minecraft book when we go to the library. This time he got four Minecraft books! 😄

    He loves playing the game and creating so many designs. The books help him learn new ways to build and create.

    I spotted this one on the “New Books” shelf. The little cowgirl riding her horse caught my eye.

    Zaya and I watch a lot of the Canadian TV show Heartland, so I thought she’d love to read this book.

    Silly Zhen (13) found this book in the nonfiction section of the children’s library and she thought it’d be a funny read. 😂

    When Zaya (6) saw the illustration of Bob Ross on the cover of Rima and the Painter, she immediately grabbed the book and excitedly showed me the book.

    “Look, Mommy!” Zaya said to me happily pointing at the Bob Ross illustration. “It’s the painter we watch on TV!”

  3. Arguments over literal truth feel like a distraction, a misdirection, while the real thing is happening elsewhere. But what is the real thing, the real message?.

  4. Some success looks beautiful on the outside and is quietly empty on the inside.
    The whisper you hear at 2 AM — when the house is still and notifications have stopped — that isn't failure.
    That is wisdom.
    A life built on inner peace isn't a small life.
    It's the only life that was truly yours.

  5. Hear me out: Monday doesn't need your Sunday.

    You don't owe productivity to the weekend.

    No Sunday prep,
    No meal planning marathons.
    No inbox zero missions.
    Just rest. Actual rest!

    Here's what that looks like
    1. Sleep in without guilt
    2. Sit with your coffee for 20 minutes
    3. Pet your cat or dog until you get bored but it's never boring (IYKYK)
    4. Read something that has nothing to do with your career
    5. Stare at the sky
    6. Call someone you love
    7. Do nothing and call it sacred

    TLDR: The hustle will still be there Monday.

    You know what else will be there?
    Your energy.
    Your clarity. Your actual creativity.

    Not the manufactured kind from pushing through exhaustion.
    The real kind that shows up when you've actually rested!

    Your boundaries aren't negotiable.

    Weekends aren't mini-Mondays.
    They're recovery.
    They're relationship time.
    They're the pause that makes the work sustainable.
    Respect them.

    Tell me: what's one thing you're not doing this weekend?
