Hey hey! What. A. Day.

Today, while coaching some leaders on my team, I had to take my own advice. 

"You can do anything, but you can't do everything. Take a step back and determine which projects are most important and why. Then decide which "why's" have the most impact overall... and start there."

If you're a motivated individual, chances are you're highly driven, responsible, organized, and reliable. 

AMAZING qualities. 

And also a breeding ground for stress and burnout if not nurtured appropriately. 

Let go of some pressure. Most things can wait a bit. Deal with what can't and then take breather!

For me, tonight, I'm sipping on a yummy drink, slipping into pjs, and binging a show.

And after today, I will not feel bad for it!

Aaron and I took little lady to "Puppy Palooza" today in Louisville. Loads of fun, surrounded by furries, Red Top Dog food truck (so clever), and puppies to cause the gals to swoon. 

What a great morning!
