Oh hey. Sadly, this is one of the best selfies I took on our Maui vacay in March 🏝️

I’m not here to be a content creator. Making an impressive feed of carefully curated shots to impress you into hiring me as your TA just isn’t in my skill set. And no shade to the beautiful content some people create - I scroll that shizz & feel the “gah I want to be there” - it works!!

But it wouldn’t be authentic LK. When you hire me, it’s my job to curate YOUR perfect vacay. If gorgeous spots for pics are part of your plans, AWESOME; I know some pretty great photo spots. But when my family is on vacation (and even when I’m living “real life”), it’s messy & chaotic. My wife & I have 2 kids - 6 & 8 - and sitting still for pics isn’t a skill we’ve mastered yet. I have a crooked smile & terrible hair & I laugh so big, it looks like I might eat the camera. I don’t think THAT’s why people want to work with me 😬 🐴 😂 I’m in the business of relationships & making memories - 2 things I feel like I can proudly say I’m good at ☺️

That’s my “hire me y’all & let’s send you on an amazing adventure”. How am I doing? 🫣

If you ask me, one of the highlights of ANY vacay is the food — more specifically, the desserts 🤭

Maui did NOT disappoint. Shave Ice the size of our heads & Dole Whip (yep, THAT Dole Whip 🍍) with all the fixin’s.

The fresh lilikoi jelly would have been great with nothing but a spoon 😂

Anyone else all about the local food offerings when planning a trip?? 🍣 🍧 🍍

Listen, I’m not saying I’m never going back to Disney - and I’m certainly not saying I won’t help you plan your vacays there. I’m just saying, I might have ANOTHER favorite place that I’m working on specializing in & I’m stoked 🌴 🐠 🌺

So if you’re considering a trip to Hawaii, I’d love to chat. And I’m sure my Disney friends know this already - but there’s even a little Mickey on Oahu if you really need your fix 😅

I remember being part of an MLM (I’m so sorry 😅) & someone saying “define yourself in 3 words”. At the time, I came up with “coffee, comedy, & cats”.

It’s nice to see I’m consistent in some things 😻

Shout out to Stumptown at the PDX Airport for making the cutest cups ever 💅🏼 Tho we need to have a talk about putting the dogs on the larger sizes. 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 🐈‍⬛

We’re a week and a half into January (despite it feeling like I’ve aged maybe 15 years in the last 14 days 😅). It’s chilly here in Portland & most days are grey AF. 🌧️

It’s usually around this time that I start thinking “February is an excellent time of year to get out of town & find the sun!” 🏝️

My wife & I have differing opinions on taking the kids out of school - so tell me;

Are you team:

“they learn plenty on family vacations!”
Or
“Vacations should be for school holidays or summer break!”

(I’m sure you can guess which camp I fall into 💅🏼)

Today feels heavy y’all. Between national news and things happening close to home here in Portland, it’s one of those days where everything feels a little (or a lot) harder for many of us.

Holding space for my community, for those hurting, and for kindness right now. 💛

I know travel inspo can be a fun distraction & many of us are looking for little pockets of joy. But today I feel like I need to pause - and express the grief I’ve been carrying. It feels like this lump in my throat has been growing for months.

Maybe some of you feel similarly. You’re trying to balance daily life & keeping some kind of normalcy for survival but there is a deep yearning to heal the wounds of the world … with a complete “where the f**k do we start?!”

Some days I feel so small. So afraid. And I have to admit that doing this without my mom here feels really scary. As mothers, sometimes we say “it’s going to be ok” even when we aren’t sure. Even when we know that it probably won’t really be ok. But right now I’d give anything for that little reassurance from her.

So I don’t know what all I’m trying to say. Just that I see you - and if you’re constantly on the verge of tears like I’ve been for months, just waiting for something to bend or break, maybe you just need to hear that it’s going to be alright.

🫶🏼,
LK

The post-holiday hangover is real.

Going from celebration and togetherness back to routines, schedules, and inboxes can feel… heavy.

If you’re feeling a little tender today, you’re not behind. You’re just human.

We don’t have to rush our way out of this feeling.
