Blogging Organically: Five Year Check-In
I can’t believe it has been five years since I published my very first post on Wayward. (really, you don’t have to click the link and read it – it’s… not great). Back then I didn’t know what to expect from beginning this adventure. I certainly didn’t have a five-year plan in place to guide …
Five More Easy Swaps I’ve Made to Reduce Waste
One frequent New Year’s Resolution (or intention) on many people’s lists this year is to make an effort to be more sustainable. It’s a daunting task, really. Monumental. But you should know that the fate of the planet doesn’t rest solely in your hands (although the manufacturers of the world would like you to think …
Setting Intentions for a New Year: 2022 Edition
*pops cork* Happy New Year! If you stayed up to watch the clock turn from yesterday to today, I hope you were able to sleep in a bit this morning. I don’t know about you, but I’m feeling pretty grateful to be alive and well today in this new year. And I’m also thanking my …
2021: Year in Review
I think we can all agree on one thing: it’s been a year. As I reflect on 2021, it’s easy to get lost in the bad.

In preparation for all the excessive moisturizing to come, I recently decided that I should add a lip scrub to my routine, in addition to making every …
Five Easy Meals
“What do you want for dinner?” It’s such an innocent-sounding question, even a friendly-sounding one, but you and I both know that’s a loaded question. Are you asking me to try to guess what you’re in the mood for? Are you asking me to cook? Are you thinking of getting takeout? Who’s picking the spot? …
Why I Changed My Name at Age 32
Nope, not my blog name – my name-name.
Italic Is a New Marketplace for Home and Away
If you’ve been anywhere on the internet lately, you may have heard of Italic – the brand that, well, isn’t really a brand. Maybe you have even browsed their website before, admiring their beautiful, minimal products that all noticeably lack a brand name or label (garment tags simply read, “MADE FOR ITALIC”). And maybe you …
Journal | 10.22.21
I admit I still feel a bit rusty at running this blog again. (Not that I was necessarily an expert at it before, but still). I feel like I’m still navigating what Wayward looks like in 2021, and with the world the way it is (i.e., the days are still pretty slow around here), I …
