A Hipsy’s Creative Journey

I started a writing group, a “Shut Up and Write” writing group. If you don’t know who or what “Shut up and Write” is, let me enlighten you. They are a nonprofit organization that encourages writers worldwide to write together. The structure is simple: come together, shut up, and write together for an hour, giveContinue reading “A Hipsy’s Creative Journey”

A Wandering Hipsy

It’s been over a year since I’ve posted here. What a journey I’ve been on. I almost closed this account, but changed my mind… for once, this one will stay. I’ve had so many blogs in my lifetime, and recently, I have had the honor (or horror lol) of finding some of my old writingsContinue reading “A Wandering Hipsy”

Old Chapters, New Year…Best ME!

Happy New Year! First, I want to thank you, my dear readers, who have followed me in my inconsistent journey of blogging about the different things in my life. It was such an incredible year, and I have big plans to get more consistent with my blogging schedule here. It’s been quite the week, month,Continue reading “Old Chapters, New Year…Best ME!”

In a coffee shop

Today has been a different kinda day and right now I’m sitting at a coffee shop without my headphones because I forgot them at home. I am wearing heels and I didn’t want to walk all the way back to my apartment. I told myself this was an opportunity to listen to my thoughts andContinue reading “In a coffee shop”

Abundance Within Me…$$$

“if you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” Paulo Coelho I believe in manifesting and the power of manifestation. I know it to be true because I’m living a life that I once dreamed of every time I closed my eyes. Had I know then what I know now,Continue reading “Abundance Within Me…$$$”

Character Building Days…

I had dinner with a friend and the topic of “have I blogged recently” came up… So here I am…sitting down to write. More because I’ve had a day that has left me once again wondering why I do what I do, and mostly because writing seems like a much better activity then crying aboutContinue reading “Character Building Days…”

Memorial Day

8 years ago I was standing at the top of the Indiana sand dunes asking myself when I would stop making excuses and start actually living life. 🥺 7 years ago I was just starting out my life in Houston. On my own for the first time with two kids. I had just starting outContinue reading “Memorial Day”

Shut Up and Write…

Life has been so busy and I haven’t had much time to write. Perhaps that’s an excuse or maybe I have been really busy. Either way writing has taken a back burner for me and I just don’t seem to make/find the time to write. One of my goals for this year has been toContinue reading “Shut Up and Write…”

New Year, New Goals

I’ve always been a goal oriented person. When I was younger we would do this ritual on December 31, where everyone would light a candle and say 3-4 things that they were thankful for that they accomplished in the year, their goals for the upcoming year, and an intention. As I got older and leftContinue reading “New Year, New Goals”

Hipsy in the City

We have officially moved to the city! Every night I walk the streets back from our new gym I can’t believe that we actually did it. Since we’ve moved to Houston, we loved this little part of the city and would frequent often on weekends. As we ate at the different restaurants we wondered whatContinue reading “Hipsy in the City”
