lidless life

it’s like THE easiest to get stuck in day to day, the same schedule, the circumstances, the looming feelings of not enough. not enough time, not enough money, not enough muscle, the list can go on BUT what if for a moment it stopped? what if we take to time to really dream again. fall in love, dream like a kid again. lidless life is a moment in time that i have resurrected bc i miss a wide open world and mind. and if you do too, this little pep rally is just for you. i love you. near or far. too...

in your newness

the new decision. what if we just decide? decide to be reminded of what we love and who we are. decide to make the change because we can. yep. maybe it is that easy. we are just a decided heart away from small or big shifts. newness. the promise and hope of a future. all things we can know as truth. all things easier to see with a post easter lens. i love you. new. old. every in between. too much. forever. xoxo kb.

a holy yes.

whew. not my typical holy week tribute but some real honesty and moments of clarity. our go to “sorry we can’t, it’s holy week” has been replaced. this holy week feels different. abundant? yes. full? completely. being the hands and feet of Jesus in noisy, but really beautifully chaotic, times. all the goodness. all at once. all the emotions. all at once. death. promise. life again. perhaps a holy yes is exactly what the answer should be. i love you. way too much. forever. happiest holy week my f...

the real time in between

a note to all my warrior hearts ::: i love you. today i am holding everything. sometimes i need a moment to hold what floats to the top and detangle the rest later. tangible ways to move my tired, grieving, even joyful mind in a forward motion. slow and steady. love and protected. thanks for sitting in the sorting. i am spoiled to have you xoxo. kb.

a holy pace

march roars in like a lion … and don’t i know that life! pumpkin rolls out but the best “what ifs” stay. as we launch into a spring refresh in home, heart, closet, and temps let’s pause for the importance of exiting our seasons like a lamb. i love you. too much. forever. xoxo. kb.

what if...

what if… girl. what if you are actually good at it? yes that. anything you haven’t tried or thought “maybe someday”… i think it’s time. time for the good old college try. time for the measuring cups and the printed recipes. time for substack or the LLC. whatever has been planted in your perfectly imperfect heart deserves a shot. so well the depth of pumpkin roll seems a little frosted in comparison, it turns out the key to knowing yourself is just a little self love sugar sometimes. i love you, ...

january slow.

my anchored thought for the very first month of a new year. i have always thought of january as calm. january is for sorting. for quiet. for reorganizing. for purging. physically and mentally. for clarity and peace. i stopped making my resolutions or words a must by january because i just love shifting and sitting. so if it’s helpful, i’m passing along my •unrush january• method. you have the whole month to get cozy with yourself and let what will float, float. to decide what this year feels lik...

tucking in the year

… a gentle way to reflect. we don’t need to tidy trees, homes, kitchens, AND new year resolutions all at once. that’s unfair and you’ve earned way more than to be limited in all your limitlessness. let’s just take some minutes during all the activities and the movement of the final two weeks of the year to note what worked and what didn’t. let’s give ourselves grace and room to breathe and then, sometime towards the top of january when things settle, we can aim. we can collect and refocus. we ca...

to host or not to host

diving into full swing holidays and testing all our *knowing* of what we need the very most! whew! i see you. i hear you. let’s talk about solutions for maybe rounding out some holiday plan sharper edges. in a plot twist of the holiday pummel, i offer that the ball is actually in your court. i also return to my favorite term “unhosting” …. oh just the sound of it feels like freedom. and just like vivian in pretty woman, “You’re right. We say who, we say when, we say how much” yikes - bad referen...

shaking hands with santa

in a world of lap sitting, we take a moment to talk about trusting our intuitions. an honoring of our guts from wishlists to hosting this holiday season. all the ways the world tries to noisy up the most sacred of seasons and the weird ways it wants us to sit on strangers … get in. get cozy. let’s talk boundaries with santa, grandparents, creepy uncles and the way you don’t have to do a thing that doesn’t settle well. i love you. too much. forever. protecting you always. xoxo ::: kb....

homecoming queen ::: cassie kelley

when i think of Homecoming and the work, maturity, calm, passion it takes to return to one’s self, cassie sits at the top of my heart. she embodies a beautiful determination and a strong sense of knowing herself. she holds love and compassion near and dear. she is gentle, strong, loving and living life on purpose. she shares her journey in recreating. identifying valleys of wasn’t working in a one-step-at-a-time approach of the dark messy parts of addiction and its stronghold on the family syste...

habits + habitats

i think in life and home there is so much to be treasured and loved and sought after- the secret is just finding rhythm. it’s about taking good care of your heartbeat and learning homes can have heartbeats too. what is good for your soul doesn’t always match everyone else. i offer a perspective of finding a sweet cadence for both. for introspective dives into what makes you tick. stay the course. learn yourself, you are a habitat all its own. i love you. too much. forever xoxo ::: kb....
