    The Third Piece Rule: Decoded

    October 25, 2018

    Happy fall, y’all! As temperatures start to drop (or have already for you cooler-weather gals), it’s a great time to take a long, hard look at your wardrobe.

    September 20, 2018

    Happy almost fall my quarter system sunshines! With only a few days before school starts, it’s time to get those brand spanking new planners out and think about what you want to accomplish in the coming year! We’ve spoken a lot about how to set goals, but today I want to share a little more about that first step of the process: visualizing your future! This summer, I started a meditation practice and often the guided meditations I listen to talk about manifesting your destiny. I’m not sold on the idea of manifestation, but I do believe in the importance of clarifying your long-term goals and finding ways to keep…
