Hi, I'm Chelsea! I’m on a mission to help you find joy and goodness in every day.
On this blog we talk about the big things (like chasing dreams) and the small things (like what books we're reading) because happiness comes in all sizes.

I’m all about starting the week on a positive note. I’m a big believer that whatever kind of day you decide you’re going to have, you will have. It’s possible to have a good day in spite of bad things going on, and it’s possible to have a terrible day in spite of good things going on.
With that being said, it’s Monday, a new week, and I think we should all decide to have a good day today. Start your day off by focusing on the happy little moments going on in your life right now. Here are mine:
After dinner swims. || Does anything scream “summer” quite like a swim while the sun is going down? It stays light so late now that post-dinner swims can happen. I love taking Jack over there and letting him splash around while it’s still light out but the heat has started to calm down.
Face masks and peppermint tea. || I’ve got new a routine going and I’m OBSESSED. I know I keep raving about this face mask but I can’t help it, it’s legitimately the best one I’ve ever used. When I need a mini break, I put it on and make a cup of this tea. It’s soothing, supposedly good for your stomach (I’m a sucker for anything that tells me it helps gut health haha). And there’s something SO nice and relaxing about having peppermint tingling on my skin AND drinking something peppermint. 10/10 recommend.
Pictures with Kristen. || On Wednesday, my best friend Kristen met up with me and took approximately seven thousand blog pictures for me. I love them, I love that I have a backlog of content to use, but more than that, I love that I told my friend what I was struggling with blog-wise and she hopped in her car to come help me. SUPPORT EACH OTHER, ALWAYS.
A fantastic library haul. || I’ve got some goooood books from my most recent library pick up. I can’t wait to dive into them!
Homemade iced chais. || Can’t stop making these. They’re delicious, have no sugar, and the entire jug costs less than one single iced chai at Starbucks.
I truly believe that focusing on and making a big deal of happy little moments only leads to more of the same. Try it! What’s something happy in your life right now?
