Do You Keep a Journal? I love this question, and even more so, I love hearing peoples answers. On a chilly autumn evening in 2014, I attended a women-only journaling workshop. And it was amazing. We discussed the history of journaling, and the different ways people do it. Why we journal. How often. When we journal. What do we write…
Ten Sunday To-Do’s for the #BESTWEEKEVER
We all get that (mild) Sunday night depression. You know, the panicky realization that the weekend is winding down to a close, and tomorrow is, well, Monday.
