week of 10/22: rose & thorn

Let’s play Rose & Thorn. Your rose is the thing that made your week. The thorn would be the downer of the week.

This post is coming from New Orleans, LA! It’s finally race weekend.

Before diving into the game, I had to share an important podcast I was turned onto this week. My buddy Billy knows how much I enjoy Aubrey Marcus, CEO of ONNIT supplements, and he shared an interview with Lewis Howes. They reminded us to a moment to reflect on all you have to be grateful for.

Making use of the weekends to travel with friends. Last weekend I spent some quality time with friends in Orlando for another round of Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival and this weekend I’m exploring NOLA. I am a lucky gal!

Ew. When online shopping goes wrong. I took advantage of a running shoe sale and “expedited shipping” only to realize I was not only not going to get my shoes in time to break them in and travel with them BUT that they were the wrong size. Annoyed but thankfully I know that I can still put in 13.1 miles on the sneakers I have. I’ll just take care of my mishap when I get back on Sunday.
