Sweet Twenty Six

Yet another year has gone by and not a single post on this blog. Well on this final day of being Sweet Twenty Six let me say that I am committing to writing some thing every day of my 27th year.


This probably isn't believable, but you will see. Plus putting something down in writing typically means that you're determined to do it and I am.


I need place to write freely, free from structure, free from snappy-ness and simply free to just be me.


My 26th year has been the best year of my life in so many ways, and yet there has been alot of change, transition and hardship. For the first time in about 10 years I find myself alone. I'm a serial monogamous by choice, I love being in love. But now as I enter into the last part of stage of my 20s I find myself solo and okay with it. I'm scared and lonely at times, but I'm excited to just focus on me for a while as my sole priority (and with that comes the growth of my baby YDT) and of course discover what I really want out of life (so twenty something of me).


YDT has been my pride and joy this past year and it has changed my life and taught me so many things. I've connected with so many amazing people and businesses doing good in the world, I've forage a teamship (a team filled with amazing talented women who I not only consider colleagues but genuine friends--family in a sense) and more than anything I've found so much joy in growing an idea into something that people have grown to love. Words cannot describe what this experience has given me and everyday I am grateful for it.


I'm about to move to my second adult apartment in Los Angeles and my first time living with a friend in over four years. I'm looking forward to not picking up after other peeps if you catch my drift. I'm also excited about my amazing room mate.



Now all I can say for 27 is that I hope it brings "simpler times".


Here's my new founder photo for YDT btw. Me likie!
