You are not a robot 🚫 🤖

Hey Reader! I say this a lot, but it's especially important at this time of year: You are a human being, not a robot. I know, I know! It feels so damn good to tick all the boxes and hit your Martha Stewart marks. That is, until you fall apart in the grocery aisle at Trader Joe's because they're out of Kringle and now what are you supposed to feed everyone on Christmas morning?!?! Well, I'm here to make you feel better about your non-droid status and share just a few of the ways I'm woefully ill-prepared for the season so you feel better about yours! Little drummer boy drum roll, please...
Feel better? 😂 We are human beings, not robots, and this time of year is a lot so we're going to mess up and forget things and do things wrong and IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD, pinkie swear. So, here's to shoving everything into closets before people come over, serving premade appetizers (spinach dip is always a winner!), and cutting yourself some serious slack. You're doing a FANTASTIC JOB. xx. Kara PS: Pretty sure, you're going to need some recovery time in the New Year and my email accountability program is a perfect way to make sure you're showing up for yourself on the regular! It's fast (just one email / week), fun (you commit to doing one fulfilling thing for yourself / week) and affordable (less than $10 / week). 🎉 And, just for subscribers, I'm throwing in an one hour coaching session if you sign up by December 20th. Let's put yourself on your calendar next year, k? It'll make getting through the chaos, oh, so much more bearable. |

Hi Reader! For the past six months, I've been obsessed with figuring out how to do Substack. I've talked about it ad nauseam in my mastermind, I've voice texted my business besties about it every day, I've pondered it for hours while driving car pool and half listening to debates about Sabrina Carpenter's new album. Imagine a 10 year old boy, who just discovered Rocket League and NEEDS to discuss his sweet pinch-wave dash maneuver, in depth, all day, non-stop. Um, that was me. 😬 I just...
Happy New Year Reader! Last week I ended my email to you with a PS that I wouldn't be sending more emails because I was lying on the couch, reading books and eating Christmas cookies. THAT WAS A LIE. I didn't mean for it to be. I had every intention of parking my rear under our new, faux Minky blanket and tearing through my new Louise Penney. But, then I started thinking about the returns I needed to make, and the fact I hadn't checked my email in a week, and that we had visitors coming and I...
Hey Reader! When I was in my 20s, I wrote a resolutions list that, no joke, included the following. No boyfriend -> Find soul mate. No job -> Find fulfilling job. In debt -> Get out of debt and start saving. Too big -> Lose 25 pounds. Living at home -> Find place of own. No friends -> Make new friends. First, oh, my love. ❤️ I'm sending this past Kara so much grace because it was a seriously hard time in my life - I was living with my parents after traveling the world for a year and re-entry...
