It’s easy to look forward to what’s next, but I share why I want to embrace the present moment more often.

On my twenty-eighth birthday this month, I quit my corporate job to pursue a creative path. The unknown — a scary, beautiful place. I’ll document the adventure of it all.

I’m starting a new series — Diaries of a Twenty Something. I want to fill it with the thoughts, struggles, and challenges I’m feeling as I close out my twenties. The first post is about birthdays and growing up.
