Howdy! Keeping it short and sweet this week because, honestly, I’m exhausted. Links etc. are below for ya!
Highs & Lows
High: The Travel Channel came to OBC Kitchen, one of the restaurants I work for, this weekend to film an episode of Food Paradise. It was so cool to see how those things are done. We’re not sure when our episode will come out, but I can’t wait to see it!
Low: My high and low are the same this week. While the filing was incredibly cool, it also meant that I had to work two weekends in a row so going on 15 days without a day off.. cue exhausted.

Quote of the Week
“What looks like a disaster, is life reorganizing in your favor. Focus on the outcome. Simplify. And know that there is support for you in every moment. Be open to how support reaches you and remember to circulate abundance in return.” – Mastin Kipp
Found this on Instagram at an opportune moment. Hoping it inspires you to go after it this week!
