Forrest, my crazy rescue dog, has been with me through it all and somehow made everything feel a little less crazy.

Everyone says your 20s are supposed to be the best years of your life, but what if they’re actually just confusing, messy, and kind of lonely sometimes?

Choosing between the Northeast and Florida feels like choosing two very different lives.

Moving to Iowa with three dogs and figuring out life.

Moving every few months with my partner’s travel nursing career isn’t always easy, but it’s full of new experiences and unexpected lessons.

I’m 26, still unsure what I want to do, and just trying to figure it out one step at a time.
