LIFE LATELY

Hellooo everyone,

I’m in the mood to write and thought I’d just start writing and see where this post goes…

I think we can all agree a lot of emotions have been going on in the entire world due to COVID19. I personally have felt a lot of emotions and this shift in lifestyle hasn’t been easy for me. I am thankful that the people closest to me are healthy.. but still this shit..I think we can ALL agree isn’t easy. This life adjustment for us all is new and collective and weird.. I’ve found myself having a hard time balancing everything. These past few months have been full of change and challenges for me, but I’m just trying to remember I’m growing from it all. Hope all of you are staying healthy and SANE. Take care of yourselves the best you know how to. Put yourself first when it comes to your mental health and let’s all just be kind. This too shall pass… eventually.

April was a hard month for me. My sweet cat Chloe passed away on April 9th. She was very sick and it was her time to go. I miss her so much. Chloe was my 12th Birthday present and has been with me through so some tough stuff. Letting her go was like closing a chapter of my life. It’s been hard but I know she’s always with me as I believe that energy never dies. We truly had a bond like no other. I love you Chloe Billie. Until we meet again.

  I’ve struggled for a while knowing what exactly I want to do as a career and profession and have been craving to do something more with my creative/business passion. If you follow me on Instagram you may already know this.. but I decided to go back to school for a 14th month Art Direction program studying Ad Design at Denver Ad School. The goal after this program is to get a job in advertising as a creative director. It’s kicking my butt.. but I know it’s going to be so worthwhile and exactly what I’m meant to be doing right now. I’m going to share some of my designs in the future (once I get better) on a new Instagram account I made @designbymaggs. Follow along if you want to see what I end up creating.

Now let’s talk about What’s Your Take. If you don’t know, my mom and I have a podcast together and discuss a variety of things from love languages to mental health and other random/important topics. Our goal for 2020 is to have more guests on the podcast soooo stay tuned for a very exciting guest that we are interviewing this week. The interview will be out hopefully this week too and I am so excited for you guys to hear! In the meantime..listen to our latest episode talking Conspiracy Theories here.

Other than staying busy with school and the podcast I’m just trying to embrace all this down time as best I can. I’ve been reading more (I’m almost done with “Where the Crawdads Sing” sooo good), playing tennis, hiking and watching my brothers play a lot of Skate 3 lol... I’m currently living at my parents house and all five of us are living here.. it’s an adjustment and it feels like we are kinda living our childhood lives again.. as adult children. Wild times.

     talk soon. stay sane
