The site is LIVE!
Hello World!
This site is liveeeeeeeeeee!
After putting so much pressure on getting this site up and running, I decided ‘Ya know what, I’m just going to make it live with the very minimum and build as I go!’
Done with waiting for perfection and in with imperfect action and iterating.
It’s also going to be such a beautiful journey to share the development of this site, to let you join along and see the growth live in action. Seriously, this is my baby so be prepared for all those milestone announcements and photos that you’d normally get from all your friends that just had a kid ;)
I am just over the moon that this project is live now!
I definitely built it up more in my mind than it needed to be. I think what helped is deciding to launch with the ‘minimum viable product’ if you’re into biz terms. Read BLOG here. I’d built out a home page, scrapped it, built out another one, sat on it, started building out another one and was like what am I doing here. Taking a step back, I realized the important bit is the information being presented. I have such a large backlog of content that I’m so excited to share— so much so that it was daunting thinking about getting it all up on here. But by making it live now, I feel like all that pressure is gone and I can just lead with excitement as each piece goes up. I now appreciate that this is going to be a journey of consistent daily effort.
Out with the bursts of hustle and in with sustainable growth.
Which works well because sustainability is a huge part of what I’ll be talking about on here. I’ll also be talking about fashion, home, food, wellness and mindset— or right and all through the lens of travel. Cuz if you didn’t hear— I’m traveling the world for a yearrrrrr! I’m 3-months in at the point of writing. And dang has it been confronting in so many ways that I didn’t expect. I’ll be sharing more about that too. A huge part of me not sharing so far is that I didn’t want this to be that insta-travel life kind of blog, website, social that seems so unreal and picture perfect and unattainable. This process has been far from perfect, but has also taught me so much and made me be confronted also by sooooo much. The personal growth has been out of this world, the ups and downs as steep as my favorite roller coasters and somehow, I finally found my footing and balance and am ready to launch into this life that I set out to design for myself.
The premise of this site is going to be an expose on designing your life—
All done through the lens of me as I document the journey of me designing mine. The goal is to set out and give back a roadmap for how to get to the life of your dreams. I’ll be pursuing my dream life and sharing all the sides of doing that along the way— the good, the bad, the ugly and also alll the beauty! This is what everything I’ve been doing has been building to and I’m so excited to share it with you. I’m hoping that through my journey, I can inspire you to pursue your dream life too. I also hope you know you always have a friend, cuz it can definitely be a lonely road. This is the road less traveled for sure, but it absolutely doesn’t mean we have to do it alone. So I’ll be there as best I can by sharing my experience so you know a bit of what to expect, gain some insight in how to navigate it and a knowing that this life is possible if you want it. It’s not for everyone, but if you have the calling and urge like me— this is the only way!
So here’s to this new journey ~
The journey of throwing everything out there, seeing what sticks, embarking on the different, entering the unknown, taking a leap of faith and trust and believing in myself and this path I’ve been called to follow. If that rings true to you too, I lead with a resounding—
We’ve got this!
So much love and warmth!
Here we gooooo! <3
