Holy moly, looking back at the beginning of this year it feels like I’ve lived a thousand lives in just 365 days 😮

Here’s the highlight reel:
✨ Reigniting my love of solo travel with a trip to Thailand + Vietnam for a friends wedding + motorbike tour
✨ Almost 15 years after my big spill in Nicaragua, I finallllly conquered my fear of driving a motorbike (very proud of this moment 💪)
✨ One last care free summer of fun before 🤰
✨ Riding in my first private jet the same day I found out I was pregnant!
✨ Celebrated my 37th birthday in one of the most beautiful places on the planet (Lake Tahoe)
✨ Watched my baby (and my body) grow
✨ Took our first non-work related vacation since our honeymoon in 2019. This was our secret baby moon way before we made our announcement. ☺️

PS: these are just the highlights! Not pictured are a lot of challenges, anxiety and struggles - we’ve still got those too 😝

How was your year?

I’ve been waiting a long time to make this announcement and now that it’s here, I’m kind of at a loss for words! I’m pregnant! 🥰

After years of fertility struggles, it feels absolutely surreal that it’s my turn to share our good news. 🤰I feel so, so blessed that Jules and I are expecting a baby boy at the end of March!! 🍼

There’s so much excitement and joy in our household right now, but I have to acknowledge the bittersweet journey of becoming pregnant again after 3 previous losses. We have 4 babies that didn’t make it into our arms (the first loss was twins), but each of them has helped me grow into the mother that our future baby boy deserves. 👶

Jules, Poppy and I are so ready for this next adventure! Now that the cat’s out of the bag, I’ll probably be posting quite a bit about the next stages of our journey, but I completely understand that may be uncomfortable for anyone dealing with their own fertility struggles. Please feel free to mute or unfollow if that helps protect your heart. ❤️

Thanks to everyone for supporting our little family on this journey. We can’t wait for our little boy to join our traveling pack 🧳

⚠️ Trigger warning - Pregnancy loss ⚠️

Yesterday was Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, and honestly, I didn’t have the strength to post at the time. But I know how important it is to talk about how common pregnancy loss is, so I’m sharing my story now, in my own time.

Over the last couple years, I’ve experienced two missed miscarriages and one chemical pregnancy. After my third loss, I developed Asherman’s Syndrome and had to undergo a hysteroscopy to remove scar tissue. 😮‍💨 The pain of these experiences is something that stays with me, but so does the resilience I’ve built along the way.

As I read others’ stories yesterday (thank you to everyone who shared ❤️), I couldn’t help but think about how much miscarriage is still kept in the dark.

We’re told not to share our pregnancies before the 12-week mark, since those early weeks carry the highest risk of loss. But I’ve been asking myself—who is this “rule” really for? Is it to shield us from the heartbreak of discussing a loss, or to spare others from the discomfort of hearing about it? Because when we don’t talk about it, it can feel like pregnancy loss is something that happens in isolation, when in reality, it’s so much more common than we realize.

If this journey has taught me anything, it’s the strength I’ve found in myself, and the gratitude I have for the support around me—especially from Jules, Poppy, and our incredible family and friend who’ve carried me through the hardest moments. You know who you are 🫶

And I want to wish a happy birthday to our angel baby Poppy Goodgirl. 🎂 In a bittersweet coincidence, her birthday falls on the same day as one of our losses, but she truly is the best girl in the world. ❤️

🇹🇭 THAILAND 🇹🇭 This trip to Southeast Asia has been not only a happy return to one of my favorite regions but a return to myself as a person.

I am my most ✨me✨ when I’m traveling. From the moment I started my first solo backpacking trip, I unlocked a side of myself that I’d been missing. A side that I could have only found in Central American chicken buses, hostel dorm rooms and the necessity of 100% self reliance.

This trip has been such a welcome return to that sense of self. Even though I’ve only been actually solo for a few days (the rest of the time I’ve been with friends), I feel my independence and the joy of my own company coming back to me.

Here’s to more moments like this in 2024. 🥂 So much more content coming up from this trip (umm Vietnam is Amazinggggg), so stay tuned.

Special thanks to for holding down the fort while I gallivant around Southeast Asia. As much fun as I’m having I can’t wait to get back to Jules and Poppy ❤️
