What I’m reading – I was turned on to the founder of Patagonia, Yvon Chouinard and his unique journey to becoming a ‘businessman’. I just ordered his book “Let my people go surfing” which I can’t wait to read. Here is an article on him: Yvon Chouinard Interview

Also, this is a great short live interview with him: NPR Yvon Chouinard Interview

Music – I’ve been building this playlist for over a month now.. it’s pretty legit.

What I’m watching – How the economic machine works by Ray Dalio. This is a super short and simple breakdown that I came across when looking into Ray’s new book called ‘Principles’.

Word of the week – Creativity. I never used to think I was creative or artistic in the slightest but I’ve come to realize that everyone is uniquely creative, you just have to do it! I started drawing this week and I’ve quickly become obsessed. Ask yourself, “How do I express myself creatively?”

Product I’m loving – I’m not a big makeup girl but when I do wear it, I make sure it’s all natural with simple ingredients. This time of year I find myself putting on a bit to brighten up – I’m loving this eye palette from Pacifica.
