Inspiring You to Uncover and Design a Meaningful Life
It’s been unexpectedly rewarding going back to working full-time hours, and a great practice choosing gratitude despite some growing pains.
What’s the most surprising is how happy I’ve been despite being exhausted and suddenly having more responsibilities. Continue Reading
As I’m sitting by the poolside on a condo rooftop in City Center, Las Vegas, I keep on thinking about how crazy life can be, and how quickly circumstances can change when setting intentions and letting go.

Pokémon Go has been addicting, and it’s taken a toll on my productivity for the weekend.Continue Reading
It’s been about a year and half since I began writing regularly* on Uncoveries.
