notes on mastering the art of transcendence and refinement with Coached By Kate
I love this picture! A fancy plane in mid-air with blue sky's. Green tree's and fluffy clouds lying in the background. So great! You could give it a cliquey quote and it could be one of those quintessential 80's posters that everyone hung up in their sales office's back in the day. The photo is a [...]
Many people create massive goals and expectations at the beginning of the year. I would like to give you a different way of running life for 2021. Do these seven things weekly. Some weeks may be busy, some weeks you may be on vacation, or running kids to ball practice. These seven thing you can [...]
I don't know what it is about Downton Abbey that creates such an appeal. However, almost everyone I talk to can appreciate it. I recently (pre-quarantine) got a chance to visit the exhibit! I walked through the real live set of the downstairs kitchen and read through letters from the war. I followed a virtual [...]
This past winter I went through my traditional winter blues. I craved comfort food, extra sleep, and movies. When this happens I know I need personal intervention. But how? How do you pull yourself out of a slump when you just don't feel like it? I have learned that part of this for me is [...]
