🎉 Happy New Year! My 2026 Intentions
Cheers to a fresh start! I’m keeping things intentional this year with five simple focuses. Here is a recap of exactly what I’m bringing into 2026:
1. People Love Getting Mail: Writing one handwritten note or card every single week. 💌
2. Time to Learn: Reading AI First by Adam Brotman + taking a cooking class. 🍳
3. Clearing the Space: One space weekly—if it doesn’t give you joy, clear it or regift it. ✨
4. Be Well: Eat more protein, drink more water, walk more steps, say no when needed, and sleep more hours. 🌿
5. Plan Your Fun Things: Spontaneous is good, but having things to look forward to with family and friends is better! 🥂
I’ve linked all my essentials—from my favorite stationery and the book AI First to my favorite wellness must-haves.

All Quiet on the Home Front 🤍
There is something bittersweet about a clean room, isn’t there? I walked into my daughter’s room today and it’s perfectly neat, the bed is made, the pillows are fluffed, and everything is in its place., (including the stuffies)
While I love that it’s tidy, it’s a little too quiet around here while she’s away at school! I’m soaking up the peace for now, but I’ll be the first to admit I actually miss the chaos when she's gone.
My secret to keeping a bedroom feeling cozy without the clutter is simplicity and texture. Instead of a ton of stuff, focus on layers. I’m tagging my absolute favorite sheets—they are the only ones we use because they stay crisp but soft—along with the textured pieces that give the bed that finished look.

The Recipe for a Simple Space:
• The Foundation: Start with the "holy grail" sheets (linked below!).
• The Texture: Mix a chunky knit throw with a duvet.
• The Palette: Keep colors muted so the room feels like a sanctuary, not a storage unit.

• The Speed Rope: Essential for footwork and getting those heart rate spikes in between sets.
• The Mega Water Bottle: Because staying hydrated is an understatement when you're training in a hot gym!
