Happy Friday Friends!!!

Happy Newsletter Friday! Welcome to those of you who are reading this for the first time and welcome back to those returning! Let's kick it off with the anticipated poll results!

THE POLL RESULTS: 

So the jury was out this past week on what is the best type of juice out there is. Some are delectable delights and others are just absolutely horrendous. Some juices are considered the children's wine and some should just be classified as gross soup (I'm looking at you tomato juice). That being said, what was our winner?!

Sadly, the children's wine, the funky vibes of pineapple juice, and then the breakfast mimosa OJ didn't win. What did win though...? It was APPLE JUICE! Apple juice really does feel indulgent and always feels like a treat.

OTHER NEWS:

EVERYONE CELEBRATE!! January is officially over!! What a wretched month January is. In my opinion, it is the worst month of the entire year and guess what?! We made it through! Well, for the most part. February is here and it is only slightly better because it is shorter than January BUT the year only gets better from here on out. It is a small win but a WIN nonetheless!

These past few years, I have been focused a lot of creating habits. The habit to create (like this newsletter), to run, to be healthy, to be intentional, and so much more. I have found that habits have helped me commit to who I wanted to be. Last month, I read Atomic Habits by James Clear and it provided me with the language to the actions I have been already doing. The newest habit I am working on is Nikki Lodeon. I am trying to get her on stage once a month (at least). So... stay tuned, follow her on socials, and check out her page on my website!
