Cat Vibes

Avoidant attachment, nervous system chaos, but make it iconic I recently introduced Breakfast at Tiffany’s to a friend, which feels oddly intimate, like saying, here, this explains a lot about me without actually explaining anything. I adore this movie. It’s one of my comfort watch, emotional support films. What gets me every time is the way Holly GolightlyContinue reading “Cat Vibes”

Peaceful Vibes

What’s your word of the year for 2026? I stood there for a moment, thinking, as the brunette girl who had just complimented my outfit asked me the question. At first, I wanted to say freedom.But it didn’t quite land. Something else wanted to come forward.Something quieter. Softer. Deeper. Peace. If I’m really honest, that’s whatContinue reading “Peaceful Vibes”

Let Them Vibes

What “Let Them” Really Means “Let Them.”The catchphrase of 2025, courtesy of Mel Robbins—and honestly, a concept that feels both wildly simple and deeply uncomfortable. Here’s what Let Them means to me. Let them walk away.Let them take space.Let them heal in silence if that’s what they need.Let them rest.Let them do whatever they want—or feel theyContinue reading “Let Them Vibes”

‘Tis the Season Vibes

The Love Language of Things (And the Meaning We Try to Make of Them) I stood in the mail room overwhelmed. My eyes scanned every shelf—overflowing, some packages even spilling onto the ground. ’Tis the season, I suppose. Per the notification on the Luxer app, I should be seeing three packages that belong to me.Continue reading “‘Tis the Season Vibes”

Meaningful Vibes

Romanticize Your Life (No, Really.) Romanticize your life. Take the pictures. Write the blog. Archive it all on socials if it sparks joy. Not because you’re trying to prove anything — but because it’s your life, and it’s worth documenting. There’s something sacred about treating your own existence like it’s meaningful… because it is. WeContinue reading “Meaningful Vibes”

UNO Vibes

Flip It and Reverse It: The Wild Card That Is 40 Forty is a paradox. It’s the age where your group chat includes moms of toddlers and parents of college freshmen. Some friends are navigating their second divorces, while others are planning their first weddings. One person is dating someone half their age and test-drivingContinue reading “UNO Vibes”

Chanel Vibes

The Earrings That Got Away There’s something about Niagara-on-the-Lake. The charming streets, lined with flowers and quaint boutiques, make you feel like you’ve stepped straight into a postcard. My husband and I were strolling there recently, and the very first shop we wandered into caught my eye for one simple reason: in the display caseContinue reading “Chanel Vibes”

Missed Connection Vibes

A Nostalgic Throwback I used to read the “Missed Connections” section on Craigslist for fun back in the day. It was iconic — this little corner of the internet where strangers wrote hope-soaked notes to the person they crossed paths with at a grocery store, a gas station, a bookstore. Romantic, delusional, deeply human. A digital timeContinue reading “Missed Connection Vibes”

Muse Vibes

The Muse in the Middle of the Heartbreak I’ve always believed that love — and sometimes the loss of it — is one of the greatest creative forces we’ll ever meet. There’s something about heartbreak that cracks us open just enough for the light to pour in… and somehow, art rushes out with it. HumansContinue reading “Muse Vibes”

40ish Vibes

Sometimes I forget that music isn’t technically therapy… and then a night like this comes along and reminds me that actually, it kind of is. For my 40th birthday, I found myself front row at a Tame Impala show, basically having an out-of-body experience while Kevin Parker poured his psychedelic soul out onstage. Anyone whoContinue reading “40ish Vibes”
