Hi! I’m Tori and I’m so glad you’re here.

Have you ever had the feeling that there is more to life than simply making it through the week? If so, you’re in the right place! I’m a wife, mom of four, corporate leader by day, and someone who’s always been in search of “more.” Depending on which season of life you asked what “more” means, I may have told you something different. I just didn’t always know what that meant for me and I didn’t always have the courage to find out.

I started this blog out of a desperation to challenge myself to seek joy in my life that isn’t tied to anyone else’s wants and needs. In this little slice of heaven that I am trying to create, I want to chase all of the little ideas that I’ve suppressed over the years by falling for the belief that I either wasn’t the right one who could achieve something or the timing wasn’t “just right.” Life often feel like a grind, chasing after what outwardly is seen as success. While I am completely grateful for the life I’ve built so far, I know there is more. I know there is a side of me that I haven’t even begun to tap into. A side that I am genuinely excited to experience every day and I am beyond thrilled (and a little nervous) to bring you along for that journey. Whether we are doing home projects, discovering the latest fashion trends, getting healthier, traveling somewhere new, or simply trying to become a little braver, we’ll build a community here one day at a time.

None of us get to know how our story ends. But we do get to decide whether we’re willing to write a bigger one. So, if you’re building a life that’s bigger than you once imagined, even if you’re just thinking about it, I’m so glad you’re here.

Let’s see where this takes us.
