My friends call me Rach. I'm a designer and far too many other things by day and an overthinker by night.

I started Kindly, Rach, to share the things that keep me grounded and make life feel joyful — home-cooked meals, workouts with friends, Sunday reflections, the places I've been, lessons I've learned the hard way, and things I'm still figuring out.

It's about the small stuff. Like weekday pancakes, or a silly bike ride where you wonder "do I look stupid?" and yeah, you might, but that's literally none of your business.

A letter to myself and anyone else who needs a friendly reminder to be kind to themselves, not take life too seriously, and that helmets are hot.

IT’S A LOONNGGG WEEKEND! Monday holiday, Monday holiday, Monday holiday! Yay!

I’m feeling very grateful because I had the loveliest weekend with friends, my sister, and Jeremy. The weather in Santa Monica has been immaculate, which means lots of sunset walks and beach time with Beau, and when Beau’s happy, I’m happy. 

The past week was all about good eats, good walks, and good work fits. This week, I want to feel extremely present, eat healthy, do my usual workouts, keep my apartment clean, and go to bed early, because the following week I have a work trip.

I’ve also been craving productivity lately because there are a lot of things I want to get done both at work and in my personal life, so I want to stay focused, stay off my phone, and get shit done. I sound like Kim Kardashian’s toxic ass. “Get your f**king ass up and work.” She said it, not me.

On another note, I've been feeling very antsy in my apartment lately. I was trying to move my desk arrangement to a new spot, out of my bedroom, for the new year. But it’s making the entire living room feel too cramped and messy, and the lighting isn’t nearly as good for work calls. So, I just keep feeling this urge to re-arrange EVERYTHING. When I get this feeling, I know it means I subconsciously feel anxious about something. So then I just have to figure out what...

But that’s a problem for another day because tomorrow is MLK Day, and Hannah and I plan to go to the movies then bop around the mall. We bop, then we problem solve.

Things I'm craving this week:

blueberry muffins, productivity, cleanliness, long walks, sunshine
