Since launching You Me Serendipity a few months ago I have been excited about holding myself accountable to this idea of subjective perfection. For the most part I think I've done relatively well! I've shared some of the highlights from our wedding and how they led to a celebration that was perfect for us, I've jumped into building and exploring self-confidence with the Becoming Confident Series, I've shared my goals for 2016 and how I have and have not achieved them so far, and I've shared with you a little bit about how we choose to approach dating as newlyweds. 

These summer months do not seem to be bringing an end to my travel - if anything, they are almost maintaining the pace I had set in May! Because I am on the go so often Kurt and I really work to make the most of the time we have together in Tallahassee. For example this past weekend we went for a 10 mile bike ride, tried a new restaurant for brunch that we really liked, and went to see a movie.

Well friends, I am happy to be back with the second post in my Becoming Confidence Series after an unexpected break! In short, the month of May pretty much kicked my butt. I traveled back to back to back for work and for family events (my younger brother got married!) and my writing routine must have jumped out the plane window when I wasn't looking.

For some time the KonMari Method of tidying has been circulating among my friends, acquaintances, and family members - many of whom have been talking about their interest and success in de-cluttering life with this system. The KonMari Method was developed in The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up, written by Japanese organizing consultant and lifestyle expert Marie Kondo.

Not long after starting my first professional role in Indianapolis I was introduced to Levo, a network for millennials that provides tools to develop talents, build connections, and identify your passions as a new professional. While technically on the cusp of the millennial generation, I have found great value in the tools and resources Levo provides.

When I was a freshman in college the movie 13 going on 30 came out. I remember watching that movie and thinking "thirty, flirty and thriving" seemed so far away. That feeling changed little by little as I continued through college and graduate school, moving through my 20s. I started to feel closer to 30 but no nearer to being flirty or thriving.
