If we were having coffee, I’d tell you that so much has happened since the last time we had coffee almost five years ago.

Since the last time we had coffee, I have earned two degrees! I earned my Master’s degree in Nursing Education and I earned my doctoral degree, Doctor of Nursing Practice.  I am now officially Dr. Smith!  Both degrees definitely came with their own set of challenges, tears, and many sleepless nights; not to mention, the last 2 1/2 semesters of my doctoral degree occurred during the pandemic!  I’m excited to see where my career path leads.

If we were having coffee, I’d let you know that during our time apart I became a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200)!  Yoga has truly kept me grounded in the midst of the pandemic and while earning my degrees.  If you have never practiced yoga, I encourage you to find a local or virtual class to attend.

When we last had coffee, I told you that dating in your 30s is hard…dating in your 30s is still hard…and that’s all I have to say about that!

If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I’m excited to restart my blog and have coffee together from time to time.  Over the years I have learned so much in regards to health and wellness and I can’t wait to share with you all!  If you’ve checked out the site, you’ll see that I’ve uploaded many posts from my old site.

If we were having coffee, what questions would you ask me?  What thoughts would you share?
