Journaling is NOT a group project!

Somewhere out there is a journal entry I wrote at 15 that would probably make me want to crawl into a hole if someone read it today. And that's the beauty of keeping a private journal. You get to be dramatic, petty, confused, contradictory, and occasionally completely unreasonable without h

Healing isn’t always pretty and it’s ok

Can we retire the idea that healing is supposed to be some beautiful, graceful journey? Because sometimes emotional healing involves crying in your car, getting irrationally annoyed at someone chewing, and writing things in your journal that would make your therapist raise an eyebrow. 😂 Journali

The journal prompt you need today.

Ever have one of those days when someone asks how you're doing and you say "fine" while your brain is running approximately 37 different emergency meetings? 😂 That's a pretty good time to try reflective journaling. One of my favorite things about journaling for self-discovery

The art of writing about nothing

Sometimes we think journaling has to be this super serious thing where all we write is the most profound thoughts in this perfect environment. For most people, including myself it’s a lot more messy - rants, random memories, recapping the day, weird questions, pretty much anything that comes to

A Messy Little Guide

Real talk: the bravest thing you do this week might be writing “I’m still mad about it” on a piece of paper. 📝 Writing through pain isn’t a vibe, a aesthetic, or a personality. It’s you, a pen, a timer, and the thing you’ve been avoiding. Here are a few things the slides couldn’t squeeze in.

Walk It, Don’t Solve It

Good news for anyone who’s ever panicked in a corn maze: you literally cannot fail at a labyrinth. 🌀 No wrong turns. No dead ends. No “are we lost?” arguments with the person you came with. There’s one path, it goes in, and it comes back out. That’s the whole deal. Honestly, it might be the leas

Find your spark again

Your spark didn’t ghost you. It’s just in a blanket fort right now, eating snacks and refusing to answer texts. 🔥 We’ve all had those weeks (or months) where you feel foggy, flat, and about as creative as a wet paper towel. The good news? A dead spark is usually a tired spark. And tired things d

Writing Through Trauma: Start Feeling Safe Again

Plot twist: you don’t have to write the Great American Trauma Novel to get something out of a notebook. 📓 Some days it’s three messy sentences. Some days it’s “I’m tired and I don’t know why.” Some days it’s a grocery list that somehow turns into a feelings list. All of it counts. This isn’t

Maybe today isn’t a journaling day

I am very pro-journaling. I am also very pro knowing when to put the damn notebook down. 😂 Because there is a point where “processing my feelings” can quietly turn into “I have now written six pages about the exact same thing and somehow I am MORE annoyed.” Sometimes you need to write.

My secret is out - I don’t journal every day.

For someone who talks about journaling on the internet a lot, you might assume I have some beautiful daily journaling practice. I do not. 😂 Sometimes I write every day for a week. Sometimes I write three pages because apparently I have THOUGHTS. Sometimes I write one sentence. And sometime

When You Don’t Feel Like Yourself Anymore

Writing Can we talk about how weird it is to be a grown woman and suddenly feel like you need to reintroduce yourself to... yourself? Between motherhood, burnout, life transitions, and approximately 47 responsibilities, it's easy to lose track of the things that used to make you feel ali

Journaling has been weird for literally ever!

I love that we sometimes talk about journaling like it was invented by a woman with a beige Instagram account in 2017. 😂 Humans have apparently ALWAYS had the urge to go, “Okay, I need to write this shit down.” And I think that’s part of why I love journaling history so much. A journal doe

I have never been a rose person.

I’ve never really liked Roses, they felt really cliche and honestly, I’ve never thought they were super beautiful. And yet, here we are. I’ve lived in New York State, visited France, Sweden, and now here, in Colorado, and roses keep showing up. In gardens. On walls. At Chartres Cathedral. Our

So…what do you even do in a labyrinth?

The first time you see a labyrinth, it can feel like there should be more instructions. Where’s the sign? Am I supposed to meditate? Do I set an intention? What if someone is coming the other direction? Am I walking too fast? WHY DO I SUDDENLY NOT KNOW HOW TO WALK? 😂 Here’s the lovely th

The page can handle it.

I have a theory that sometimes the thing we’re afraid to say out loud gets approximately 47% less terrifying once we’ve written it down. Not because journaling magically fixes it. Sometimes you write something down and think, “Oh. Well. THAT’S inconvenient.” 😂 But there’s something about s

Diary vs. journal: yup, there is a difference!

I spent YEARS thinking journaling meant keeping a meticulous record of my life. And sometimes I still do. if recording your days is your thing, that’s awesome. Future historians deserve to know exactly what happened in the Target parking lot on September 28th. But journaling can be way more

The best time to write? Whenever

I’ve journaled with coffee, in parking lots, before bed, while waiting for appointments, and during those weird 11-minute gaps where starting anything productive feels legally impossible. A journaling practice doesn’t need a sacred morning routine or 45 uninterrupted minutes. Sometimes five minu

Julia Ward Howe had a Secret

Imagine writing something that becomes part of American culture… and then basically saying, “Yeah, I don’t really do that anymore.” Honestly? Iconic. 😂 Julia Ward Howe is such an interesting reminder that our creative lives don’t always fit neatly with the lives we’re expected to live. Som

Wanna know how to start journaling? I got you!

Can we retire the idea that journaling requires sitting peacefully by a window with a cup of tea while writing profound thoughts in perfect cursive? Because sometimes journaling is: “I am annoyed.” Followed by three pages of increasingly specific evidence. 😂 One of my favorite ways to u
