Hi, my name is Alexis and I tend to over-book myself, over-schedule myself and over-expect from myself. Can anyone else relate? The thing is, I’m not just yes’ing for the sake of yes’ing or to people please. I genuinely want to be doing ALL THE THINGS! It’s just not always possible. Even though I have heard that we all have the same amount of hours in the day as Beyoncé, I think she has someone to clean her house, do her laundry, drive her places, cook for her, etc. Those are just a few of the things that are cutting into my Beyoncé status. Otherwise I’d be all over that world tour, trust me!

So part of me doing all the things means I have to prioritize and sadly I haven’t had as much time for blog writing. I’m still sharing daily over on the ‘Gram and FB, but I love bringing you deeper thoughts, feelings, perspectives and happenings here too. We’re long over due for a week-end update and there’s plenty to share!

THE RUNDOWN

This week I was in NYC and NJ for work. Sometimes it is all work, but when possible I make the most of my travel and take a class, meet up with a friend, etc. I lucked out grabbing coffee with this special lady. Rachele is the creator and endless energy behind The Side Club, a community of women who have or want side hustles and know that in this virtual world connection is key! I was blessed to meet Rachele about a year ago here in WI. She has since moved to NYC and is loving it. Thankfully I travel there often so YAY to more coffee dates and inspirational sessions.

I’m still mostly not consuming caffeine since my liver cleanse and it feels great to no longer be reliant on it. Some of the tea I drink is caffeinated and I know decaf coffee has traces in it, but I’ve come a long way since the good ole days of one to five cups a day! Lately if I do order a coffee I’m going for a decaf americano with steamed almond milk, yum!

CURRENTLY LOVING

Amazon was good to me this week, or was I good to Amazon?? Hmmmm….

Anyway, here are my favorites from this week.

CURRENTLY READING

I usually like to read a book before I see the movie, if one has been made based on the book, but that didn’t happen this time. As a result if you’ve seen the movie, I don’t recommend the book. It was a quick read/listen but it just didn’t do much for me.

Currently accepting any and all book and podcast recommendations!
