Welcome, my friend!I’m Alyssa, and I’m so glad you’re here.

This is a space where we’ll look at the world through a different kind of lens—one that brings awareness, humor, and maybe even a little comfort in these wild times.

My goal is to get honest, get vulnerable, and get real. As I grow and evolve in this space, my hope is that you will, too. After all, life is about noticing the shifts—big or small—and celebrating them as the wins they are.

Time really is one of our most valuable resources. We can make more money. We can create more love. We can tap into more joy.

I felt so tired. Like, “I need a nap and a time machine” tired. Just 20 minutes earlier, I was pumped to finish my shopping, head home, and dive into work. What happened??
