Hey friends!

Can you believe it’s mid August already and autumn is just around the corner? Time goes way too fast!

How was your week? Did you wake up early and crush some goals? Did you read a good book or go for a long walk? Did you call your mom and tell her you love her? I hope you found time for all of these things!

Tuesday morning felt like Christmas morning in my house because our Peloton finally got delivered! Stay tuned for my review on the bike next week. We also went on an 8 mile hike which was empowering and motivating to get outside more often, despite the heat. And we had my dad and grandma over for dinner.. we need to be better at getting together with loved ones.

I had a really good week and I hope you can say the same! But, either way, it’s Friday which means it’s the start of another lovely summer weekend! Here are some interesting reads to start your day.
