My Interview with the #PerfectionistProblems series with Wendy de Jong
Hey everyone! Hot off the press! Check out my interview with Wendy de Jong, owner of The Gratefulist. She is full of heart and passion as she helps other creatives let go of their perfectionism and embrace their perfectly imperfect selves. A woman totally after my own heart! We all struggle with the idea of our own idea of being the best we can be and add that with what society expects and the ones we love wanting good things for us. Those must-be-perfect vibes being thrown around make it very easy to get trapped. Add 2 shakes of anxiety, a dash of fear and a pinch of insecurity and voila, a perfect recipe…

How to Not Freak Out with Money
Money, Money, Money. Say it 3 times and it’ll appear in 48 hours right? What about that money tree? If you’re anything like me and any other average person, the words: money, budget, finance, investment, taxes all probably stress you the hell out. Honestly, the way things are these days, it should come as no surprise. This however, then means it comes to us to make sure that WE are responsible for OUR money and OUR actions regarding money. Money is NOT a bad thing. It’s needed for daily stuff: water and electricity bills, gas for your car, the Starbucks coffee for your weekly friend date, actually going out on a…

It’s all about the Goals baby
Welcome to the 2nd half of the year, like literally, half the year has already passed. I don’t know about you, but I certainly have no clue where this year went! I will say, this year has been… eventful… and perhaps getting caught up in the throes (or should we say throws?) of life, I have gotten away from the vision and goals that I created this year. As it is now the 2nd half the year, now is a perfect time to revisit those goals, and while NOT beating ourselves up, evaluate where we currently are and make modifications. Let’s not look at “Oh, I haven’t done that,” or…

Buy me some flowers and take me to dinner, Crescent Moon and Stars is a month old! In celebration, there has been a major facelift and a relaunch! I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has supported me in my endeavors of getting Crescent Moon and Stars from an idea to launching May 10th (1 day after getting back from vacation… hindsight man… haha) and tweaking things.
