📍Pike Place Market

Ventured into “the city” today for a day date downtown. Pike Place, shopping @rei, and vegan pumpkin curry (takeout of course) from @kativeganthai. A beautiful blue sky Fall day in Seattle - Sunday well spent! 💯

Instagram is often used as a highlight reel.

Looking at these photos, you see beautiful mountain views, a refreshing alpine lake, and a seemingly happy hiker (I am!).

But what you don’t see in these pictures is the anxiety that I carried with me halfway up this trail. It wasn’t a particularly difficult trek, but I was uncomfortable in my own body: a thudding heart beat + heavy breathing under my mask.

There were multiple times when I told Nick, “I want to turn around, let’s try another day.” But I knew, wholeheartedly, that my body could physically do this “moderate” hike. It was my mind that was distracting me from trusting my resilient body and being fully present in my stunning surroundings.

Hiking is something I thoroughly enjoy, and yet it challenges me more physically and mentally than any half-marathon PR ever has. With perseverance, I told myself I wanted to keep tackling the incline, one foot in front of the other. And that’s exactly what I did. With every worry or negative thought, I combated it with something positive.

This is just a little reminder that behind all of these carefully curated squares, there’s often more to the story.

We all have our own shit. Each and everyone of us has something different we’re working through. Be kind to yourself and stretch your comfort zone — because it is always worth it. #GIRLGETAFTERIT

📍A K L I

All I can say is that I feel pretty darn grateful (make that *really* darn grateful) that THIS is where I’ve been quarantined during the craziness that is 2020.

September 1st and not a cloud in that Seattle sky. After two years in Florida (where I did not thrive), I am counting my blessings to be here — in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Because when the weight of the world is heavy, I find so much p e a c e in my new surroundings.

The west coast will always be home.

I miss travel & my mom.

I’m currently sitting in the car in the driveway sipping an iced oat milk matcha latte from @olympiacoffee and reminiscing on this matcha from @alfred during our stop in Austin, TX this past January.

2020 started out with a memorable 2-week adventure from one corner of the country to the other. Little did I know then, that road trip will most likely be the extent of all the travel I do this year.

I haven’t left the greater Seattle area since mid-January (and while I’m loving life in the PNW), I miss the freedom of traveling and visiting friends and family with ease.

This unprecedented year has certainly shown me all of the things I used to take for granted.

2020, you’ve been a shit show. Thank goodness for matcha and chocolate.
