Morning Coffee Chat ☕ | March 2021

Good morning everyone! This post is the start of a new conversational content series that I’m experimenting with, after reviewing some reader feedback from a survey that went out early last year. I wanted to create a special platform within my blog to answer questions and respond to comments/criticisms from both social media followers and email newsletter subscribers in a meaningful way that also keeps the door open for communication. That being said, please feel free to comment or answer any of the questions from these posts in the comments below. Morning Coffee Chat may end up being a monthly or quarterly blog post series, but I haven’t decided that yet and am open to suggestions. I’m really not here to blow up anyone’s spot, so screenshots will not be provided unless I have consent from the sender, which shouldn’t be a problem if they stand by what they say behind a screen, right? Sorry for the buzzkill, but I might save that kinda content for a different blog series… like “Afternoon Tea with B”. Still working on the title, so feel free to drop any suggestions in the comments.

Today's Cup

I'm enjoying a venti Honey Almondmilk Cold Brew from Starbucks ☕🍯🥛🌰 this morning. And, of course, it’s light on the ice. What are you sipping on this morning? Let me know in the comments.

The Latest

Warmer weather is finally here! I’m doing some Spring cleaning and another 10 days cleanse this month.

The Best

I've been enjoying some time alone at my apartment in the city. 🌃 I won’t be renewing my lease, so I’ll be packing up soon. It’s a bittersweet departure, for sure. But, NYC will always be there when I’m ready to return.

The Most

I was definitely doing the most when I got on my IG story to defend my choice to relax my hair after people reacted to this IG Reel that I posted. 🤦🏽‍♀️ I should not have wasted my energy responding to haters. Next time, I get criticism for something like that, I am going to let it go and not even give it another thought. Moving along…

The Not-So-Great

I’ve been quarantining/working remotely/surviving this pandemic for over a year now and it’s really starting to weigh me down. I’m not gonna lie; it’s been rough and I need a minute. So I'm considering taking some time off from blogging and social media for a few months, but I don’t know when. I’ll probably announce it and automate content and newsletters for the blog to alleviate some of that stress of falling behind.
