Hello April!

April is that you!? I can't believe it, but I am happy to see you. I hope your arrival snaps us out of this awful winter weather and brings us all the sunshine and warm spring days. Please. Please. Please. I have so many new fun spring pieces that I have been dying to wear, and the weather has just not been conducive to that (ugh). All my fingers and toes are crossed that in the next couple weeks I'll be able to break them out.. for good!

I have always loved how April feels like a fresh start. It's the first full month of spring - a season that is rooted in fresh beginnings, new life and growth. Regardless of if a fresh start is needed or not, a clean slate always feels good. And if your soul is in need of a new beginning, I urge you to take advantage of that fresh start April provides. Never hesitate to take a moment to stop, reset, and move forward with a little more clarity and strength than before.

Check out what's on my radar for April! I hope that April is everything you need it to be and more. Enjoy!


15 Things to Remind Yourself // This. This. This. I can't thank Hallie enough for having absolutely perfect timing with this post and more importantly for saying everything I needed to hear. Funny how the timing of things can be oh so perfect. Coincidence or a sign from the universe? I'm gonna go with the later, but I'll leave that one up to you to decide. Either way, I think regardless of what is currently going on in your life, you can gain something from reading these 15 reminders. Go read, soak it all in, be inspired, gain some clarity, and thank me later.

Spring Cleaning // Speaking of fresh starts, what better way to kick it off than some spring cleaning! Spring cleaning can feel a bit overwhelming, especially when there is lots to be accomplished both indoors and outdoors. However, spring cleaning is probably the best way to kick start that new beginning and fresh start that April brings! Thankfully we have this amazing spring cleaning checklist to help us get it all done. Leave it to Emily Ley to think of everything! Thank you!

30 Dinners for April // Does anyone else feel like they get in the routine of eating the same few things for dinner every week?? Although there is nothing wrong with routine, especially if it's something you like, it is fun to switch it up every once in a while as well. I am always down for trying new things - especially when it comes to food! All thirty of these recipes sound amazing, but I'm super interested in making the grilled steak salad, roasted chickpea gyros, and eggplant pizzas.. YUM!
