On the Water: Stand Up Paddling Bliss
On August 5th, I attended the free “After Work” SUP (Stand Up Paddling) ATX Clinic on Ladybird Lake. My boyfriend Kemper, my friend Tim Epple, and I all met up at the Riverside RunTex at 5 PM to check out paddle boards and receive paddling lessons from Tim Valero, the instructor for that day’s clinic.

The Perfect Summer Day in Austin
When you find yourself on automatic, repeating the same routine every day, feeling like life is no more than an unbreakable cycle of work and errands, stop! It’s time to craft your perfect day.
Begin by marking off a day on your calendar and claiming it as yours and yours alone. Take your plan to have a perfect day as seriously as a work obligation and say no to any invitations or requests for that day. In our fast-paced, high-achieving culture, we sometimes have to fight to make time for fun.
