Last month, Kurt and I took a quick weekend trip to Vancouver, British Columbia! During our time in the Pacific Northwest we enjoyed breath-taking scenery, ate some delicious meals, and enjoyed a quick respite from the heat - yes, even at this time of year! - in Florida. It was a wonderful weekend of unplugging from our normal day-to-day lives. 

This isn't the post I had planned for today. You'll see it next week (I'll be sharing what Kurt and I gave to one another to celebrate our first anniversary last month), because it just didn't feel right to post today. Yesterday was a hard day for me, and I know it was possibly a hard day for many of you. I went to bed early on election night because I had traveled to Indiana that morning for work. I was tired, both physically and mentally, and knew that staying up to watch the results was not going to be productive for me. I went to bed nervous, but still hopeful that on November 9th I would celebrate the election of our first female president.

Over the past six years, I've developed into a very organized traveler. I've largely built these skills as a result of my professional choices - they have both moved me away from the rest of my family, and often require me to travel for conferences and programs located all around the country. I wasn't always an organized traveler. I've had my share of frustrations and mishaps, but with these ten tips below, I've moved from unorganized to organized with confidence!

I came across an article last week from Fast Company about why millennial women are burning out more than their male counterparts. As a woman at the upper end of the millennial generation, I try to find and read these types of articles often - I want to know what is causing my peers to burn out, and I want to know how I can prevent it from happen to me.
