3 Ways To Increase Your Emotional Intelligence (And Why It Matters)
First things first: let’s talk about what emotional intelligence actually is. Because we’re all kind of wondering. On the simplest level, “emotional intelligence” starts with the ability to read the room. It’s a person’s innate sense of what’s going on beneath surface-level dialogues, and how the people around them actually feel about the situation at hand. […]
Weekend Notes
Happy Halloween weekend, y’all! So far, ours has been very full of frightful festivities: front porch decorating, last-minute costumes, and a few more cocktails than usual (and I may have downed two handfuls of candy corn at 1am last night. ugh.) Between all the revelry, I did have time to round up lots of links for you this […]
Jessica and Gary Wu
“Meet cutes” don’t get much cuter than the story of restaurant owners Gary and Jessica P. Wu. The two were living in New York when a rainy day (and a little bit of fate) brought them together at the ACE Hotel. We met up with the couple at their new restaurant General Tso’Boy at the Domain Northside to […]
Getting Dressed With House of Harper’s Caroline Knapp
Although Houston is only a two-and-a-half hour drive from Austin, sometimes it feels like there’s an ocean between us and the stylish gals in H-Town. Texas is a big place, so even though social media tricks us into thinking we really know our fellow bloggers a few cities over, it’s seldom that we actually get […]

Why You Should Have a Career Mantra
So there’s this largely forgotten film from 1999 called Bowfinger. Seen it? In the film, Eddie Murphy’s character, Kit Ramsey, has issues. Loads of them. But whenever he’s spiraling towards a breakdown, Kit’s therapist suggests he calm himself by repeating a personal mantra: “Keep it together. Keep it together. Keep it together.” K-I-T. I have a point, I swear. Crafting […]
Weekend Notes
Morning friends — happy weekend! After an action-packed work week, we’re savoring the loveliest low-key weekend around here. On Friday, Adam and I found ourselves with an impromptu kid-free evening, and I’d forgotten how much I love a cozy date night at home. We made this burrata salad, followed by poké bowls, shared a bottle of rosé […]
Are You Choosing the Right Friends?
Last April I started to feel really disconnected from my healthy lifestyle. You know those days (or even weeks) when everything just feels off and you can’t pinpoint why? It was weird. I wasn’t looking forward to my beloved morning workouts — they felt more like a chore than something that would make me feel […]
Sicily
In case you didn’t get enough of Sicily on my Instagram feed, thought I’d pop in on this holiday with a little recap of our trip — it was one of those places where it was literally impossible to take a bad photo, and I just have to share them with someone (#CantStopWontStop). So bear with […]
This Is The Most Obnoxious E-mail Thing You Do
Before I tell you about the most obnoxious email thing you do, let me tell you a story. Picture this: It’s 4:52 P.M. on a Thursday and I have big plans to meet my girlfriends at a new swanky wine bar. It’s 8 minutes to Happy Hour and then I’m letting loose. Then this thing […]
12 Tips to Be More Green in One Minute
The idea of “being green” can sometimes seem a little intimidating. Most of the tips I read about in magazines and on blogs feature out-of-reach goals that are both time consuming and unrealistic for my lifestyle. But after realizing in recent months how much paper, glass, and energy I have been wasting, I decided it was […]
Weekend Notes
Morning y’all! Checking in with a short post today — I’m a little jet-lagged and also wanting to spend every waking second with Phoebe and Henry this weekend after being in Europe for 8 days (and traveling for 24 hours to make it back to Austin.) If you’ve been following on Instagram, then you got a few […]

Mindful Mornings with Kick Pleat’s Inspiring Owner
Shop owner Wendi Koletar is a woman who inspires many adjectives: “She’s such a visionary,” “Wendi’s a total BOSS,” and “She has the best taste of anyone, ever,” are just a few of the descriptions I got when asking some of our mutual friends about the owner of style mecca Kick Pleat. With a gorgeous new 3,400-square foot […]
