We are a little over a month into 2021, so I started reflecting on my goals I set for myself on the 1st of the year. I reflected on them not so much to look at my progress thus far, but to remind myself of what I'm working towards. Each goal I set for myself…
As you may have seen on my social media recently, I am beginning to make an emphasis on what I believe in. We all have a lot of beliefs, but this specific belief I am talking about comes from what I believe I can do in the world. I want to use my platforms, my…
I usually blog on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday each week. I've missed a few of those days recently. I don't really remember if I was tired, if I was busy, etc. I do know that it must not have felt "right". I don't need to feel a certain way to blog, to write,…

As I have now completed my undergraduate studies at Rockhurst University, I am starting to think a bit more about my future. Where I want to go, what I want to do, how I can try to get there, etc. My goals - my dreams - are ahead of me. I have experienced something…
