Some Days, We Retrace Our Steps
This fall, my husband and I decided to make good on a long-deferred Some Day. Some Day, we will take our son to UCLA for a fall football weekend. My alma mater. Games were an activity I admittedly did not partake in as much as I could have while I was there. However, to me,…
Some Days, We Go Inward
Some days, the noise outside gets loud. The pressure feels constant. Or maybe it’s the uncertainty. The bustle is non-stop. Even the things that bring delight take up space on a plate constantly threatening to overflow (if it hasn’t spilled over already). These are the days where the barometer on inspiration and hope, maybe joy…
Some Days, We (Re)Introduce Ourselves
For many years now, I have explored the age-old question of who am I? Like, really? When you get beneath the exterior, when things get quiet, the clouds part and the skies clear, who am I in my essence? Still working on that… But, a parallel we invariably find ourselves confronting regularly, whether we’ve found…
Some Days, We Explore the ROI of Slowness
One of the things I have struggled with in my life and career is making space for my personal big rocks. I’m very intentional about doing so and I fare pretty well most of the time. But, even so, the end result often leaves a gap between where I am and where my heart longs…
Some Days, We Renew
I am someone who has a hard time turning off. Whether it’s because of the systems that reinforce this, the demands that those systems create and enable or the Productivity = Value equation we have all been conditioned to believe. Or whether it’s pure inspiration and excitement. Whatever the reason, my operating system tends to…
Some Days, We Sparkle
Fun fact: Aerobics got me through law school and my first few years of practice. Cardio sculpt and step aerobics were my favorites. Possibly because of all the dance-y-ness… I’m not a great dancer but, in these classes, I got to be the proverbial dancing queen under the guise of exercise. The best thing was,…
Some Days, We Celebrate
It is hard to believe that Some Days was born four years ago. And, in some ways, I was too. My own journey of becoming has played along in parallel to Some Days’. And, in a beautiful virtuous cycle, it has allowed me to support others in their own journeys as well. A big dream…
Some Days, The True Talent Shows
There is nothing quite like a school talent show to show you the deep vulnerability and power of creativity and dreams. Sitting in the audience, I could feel the dizzying mix of nerves and excitement. It was palpable. All these kids, recognizing that they have a special gift or calling and daring to put it…
Some Days – Autumn Abundance (Retreat)
Fun fact: I am pretty much always looking forward to fall. I try to live in the present moment and enjoy the blessings of each day. And, at the same time, I kind of can’t wait for fall. Yes. It’s March. Even now. This is something my family likes to tease me about. However,…
Some Days, We Pause
I heard the shoulds… I paused… And I chose me. The other weekend, I was scheduled to attend a creative retreat. My husband was set to run a half marathon two hours away, with my son in tow for the weekend. As tends to happen in situations like this, our respective schedules filled up with…
