Everything I Wrote & Shared in 2024 (It’s the Perfect Amount)
Here’s a round-up of everything I wrote and shared with you in 2024—from navigating hard times to embracing creative play; from big dreams to rage journaling. I’m proud of it, and it’s the perfect amount.

The miraculous thing that happened when I was 20 minutes late to my massage. (And that time I ditched my five-year plan).

The First Tiny Step Toward a Big Dream
One year ago today, as we hunkered down to brace a global pandemic, I started The Retreat Space.
It was Friday the 13th. Most Boston businesses—including the museum where I worked—closed their doors that day.
