My co-worker... I'm really lucky, she has great social skills, avoids conflict, & is generally a good listener.
Although, she does have a tendency to stare me down when it's time for "walkies". 🙈🐶😂

Mother's Day posts got me thinking about calendars & unusual days that are celebrated throughout the world. There are some fun national days that could be used to create some fun in your feed.

Here's a question for you... we all need to unwind from the noise and the news. Which of these social media platforms do you scroll to de-stress? Instagram or Pinterest?

A good read. I find myself wondering, as I have before, what will offices or remote working spaces look like once the novelty of working from home wears off? What are your thoughts?

"You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have." - Maya Angelou
I don't think I need to say much more about this. I've shared this before and it's one of my core values: to keep an open mind, no stupid ideas and big-sky thinking.

"We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty." - Maya Angelou*
In an age of Instagram envy and perfectly staged social media moments, it's really easy to think that these moments are effortless and, when looking at competitors, that they have a secret recipe that you're lacking. The bottom line is that seamless anything takes hard work, time, patience and skill. There's no getting around it, to attain beautiful results, you need to put the work in.

"If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." - Maya Angelou
Things have been difficult this past year. We're all feeling it in different ways. To me this quote reflects a multitude of situations and asks the questions: "Can you change it?" and, if not, "what are you going to do about it?" I appreciate that, because we all need a reminder to focus on those actionable things rather than the ones we can't change. So, stay positive and keep moving forward.
