I’ve been thinking about my relationship with ambition lately. What exactly is the price of ambition. Having it, needing it, using it. I think I’ve hit my wall with ambition. I’ve always prided myself on being ambitious and leading with it and leaning into it. But now, I’m not so sure. The Price of Ambition […]

One of my favorite things to do is host. I am the de facto Martha Stewart of my friend group. I love a good theme, a matching menu, and picking decor to share with my friends. Recently I went out to my friend Leah’s farm for a picnic, and invited two of my closest girlfriends. […]

Happy New Year friends! If you didn’t finish 2022 strong, that’s okay. If 2023 is starting off slow, that’s okay too. Let’s all make a vow to be kinder to ourselves this year. With that being said I’m feeling rather ambitious at the top of the year. I’ve set a lot of goals for 2023, […]

Kandice is sitting at a table making a list.

What a week. I feel like I’ve said that alot over the last year. Part of me feels like I’m not fully processing everything that’s happening. Part of me just feels comfortably numb . We’ve normalized this mess we’re in, and as I feel like it’s going to get much worse before it gets better. […]
