Have you ever been in a place in your life where you are changing and growing and building something so amazing that you realize you are falling in LOVE with it?
That is exactly what I realized today.
I am truly and deeply falling in LOVE with this new life I am creating.
These are my thoughts around that...
Love you guys!
P.S. - Today is also the birthday of one of the very best people I know. She is pure human inspiration. She is my parenting touch-stone. She is brilliant and kind and beautiful. Please go to her site and give her some love - www.jeanninejannot.com

Happy 2022! This week I was reminded of a couple of things that I think are really important and could be very helpful for all of us there year. One I hadn't thought about in a VERY long time and one that I have actually been doing over the past 6 years but have not shared with all of you.
Also, I am happy to report that my word of the year is still holding strong - 7 days in!
Love you guys.

I think we can ALL agree that no one will be sad to see 2021 be behind us. And since we also said that about 2020, I am stepping into 2022 with cautious optimism. I am sharing my word for the year for 2022 and I think it's one that is not only good for my heart and soul, but also the heart and soul of our world.
What is your word for 2022?
Love you guys.

What is the one thing you want to be remembered for?
Hint: It is also your life's WHY.
Thinking about this question will lead you to remembering all of the wonderful qualities that make you so beautifully, uniquely YOU.
It's a very good thing to do.
Love you guys.

What do Glennon, Abby, Amanda and Brene all have in common? They are the 4 women that are responsible for my total and complete transformation of how I look at my fear. And it all happened on a sunny, 70 degree day in December.
Really, you guys. How is it possible that basically every single day I hear something or learn something that hits me in all the feels in the exact way I need it to hit at exactly the right time??? It's either God, the Universe or Google. Either way, I am grateful and changed.
Thank you Brene Brown and the We Can Do Hard Things Podcast for todays lesson.
Love you guys!

Welcome to the 6th episode in the Ted Lasso series of The Next Twenty-Three.
Don't worry - there will be NO spoilers here (except the actual quote). I fully respect those of you who are choosing to hold off until each season if fully posted so you can binge it. Serious props to your self-control! I won't be providing pre or post quote context from the show - only from my own life.
As we head into Thanksgiving Week, I thought it would be timely to talk about all the things I am truly thankful for. Even during the hardest seasons of my life, I have always been able to find pieces of my life that are beautiful and serve me well and I am able to be grateful for them (eventually). So, if you are going through a particularly hard time, I hope that this episode will help to guide your thoughts to at least one thing that you are thankful for today.
We can't all be Ted Lasso, but we sure as hell can all learn from his wisdom. :)
Love you guys.

Welcome to the 5th episode in the Ted Lasso series of The Next Twenty-Three.
Don't worry - there will be NO spoilers here (except the actual quote). I fully respect those of you who are choosing to hold off until each season if fully posted so you can binge it. Serious props to your self-control! I won't be providing pre or post quote context from the show - only from my own life.
This week I have been thinking about a quote from Jamie Tartt - "Coach, I'm me. Why would I want to be anyone else?"
I have also been going down the "Imposter Syndrome" rabbit hole and spending too much time on the "I'm not enough" path.
So, today, I am changing paths - with the help of my friends and my sister and my own experience. Oh, and of course, Jamie Tartt!
I also tell you guys what I actually do for a living. :)
Love you guys.

This week I had an amazing opportunity that uncovered another casualty of divorce and it started and ended with a very unexpected invitation from a woman I have known and respected for many years. She lives in Boston and was attending the 3% Conference here in Atlanta and texted me on Monday with an invitation to join her and her team the next day. It was incredible.
This simple invitation led to a 48 hour of breath taking rollercoaster of emotion - from good to surprising to hard to great.
Thank you, Kelly Fredrickson!
Love you guys.

Welcome to the 3rd episode in the Ted Lasso series of The Next Twenty-Three.

Serious props to your self-control! I won't be providing pre or post quote context from the show - only from my own life.
This week I have been focusing A LOT on listening to what the universe is trying to tell me and being very intentional about looking for the signs. This quote—"Every choice is a chance"—feels very aligned with that. If we see our choices as opportunities to change our situation or start something new or be our best selves, then maybe, just maybe, change won't be so scary.
I have also been watching the Netfilx series - Emily in Paris - and have quite a few thoughts on that as well. Spoiler Alert - I LOVE IT!
After you listen to this weeks episode, I would love to hear from you. Let's continue the conversation and share our stories over on Instagram @taylorstreetdesigns
I hope you make a choice to take a chance this week.
Love you guys!
