28… you were more than I ever could’ve imagined. 🥹🤎

I walked into this year with no big master plan. Just vibes, a passport that desperately needed a stamp 😂, and one declaration:

this would be my side quest year! 🥳

And whewwwww… did life take me seriously. 😭

I started 28 spending 22 days in Tulum with the loml and finally got my FIRST passport stamp. 🌴✈️

I left the job I’d known for three years.

I bought my brand new snowboard : MISTY B MYSTIQUE. 😂🏂❄️ (RIP LAMARCUS 😅🤭)

I went to Disney World for the first time. 🥹🏰

Then somehow found myself spending 25 days in Bangkok with the loml, collecting passport stamp #2 while Mama Bear came across the world to join us for a week. Like??? This is my LIFE?! 😭🌏

And somewhere between all of the adventures, changes, uncertainty, healing, and figuring-it-out-as-I-go…

I built something I used to only dream about.

SŌL & HNY. ☀️

4 collections.
11 resets.
So many ideas brought to life.
And a version of me who finally stopped questioning whether she was creative enough to create the things she saw in her head.

Now I’m ending 28 preparing to bring another dream to life with / STUDIO — and kicking it off in the most me way possible:

FINAL LAP OF MY TWENTIES. 🏁

28 wasn’t easy. There were parts of this year that stretched me, humbled me, & man did the BINGO card BINGOOOOO!! 😂

But it was also one of the most beautiful years of my life.

Not because everything went perfectly.

Because I became more me.

More confident. More creative. More willing to take the leap. More willing to trust my timing. More willing to build the life I actually want to live.

And now…

29. My final lap. 🏎️💨

I don’t want to rush this one.

I want to be here for it.

Present. Intentional. Grateful. Curious. Fully alive.

If 28 taught me anything, it’s that sometimes the life you couldn’t plan is even better than the one you could.

One more lap before 30.

And I plan on taking in every. single. second. 🥹🏁☀️

28, thank you for the side quests.
29… LIGHTS OUT. 🟢🏁
