Guys… it happened. And I’m still kind of trying to figure it all out. The full range and roller coaster of emotions.

Someone sent me an email yesterday that said when they released their first book they felt… joy, dissociation, incredulousness, gratitude, and immense pride.

I think I she was right. All the feels. But mostly grateful and excited for this book to keep getting in the right hands.

Keep spreading the word. The first week makes all the difference. And please leave a review when you can. ;)

The first reviews are in…

I’m grateful to say the least.

‼️The Road Less Worn Now Available‼️

🎉TheRoadLessWorn.com or Search on Amazon🎉

Guys, today’s the day. (Eeeeeek!)
The Road Less Worn is officially out in the world.

Three years ago, I started writing in the in-between.

Late at night.
In my Notes app.
On notebooks.

Trying to make sense of what I was carrying—
and what I was ready to let go of.
What started as a personal untangling slowly turned into this book.

Part memoir, part permission slip, part lessons learned.

It’s about the stories we collect without realizing it—
the pressure to perform, prove, and keep up.

It’s about decluttering success, identity, and who we think we need to be.
And what it looks like to clear a little space and come home to yourself again.

I wrote it for me.
But I hope it finds you, too.

Thank you for reading.
Thank you for making it this far with me.
I now know what it feels like to be equally terrified and excited at the same time.

The Road Less Worn is available now—everywhere books 📚 and audiobooks 🎧are sold.

🎉TheRoadLessWorn.com or go to Amazon! 🎉

What Is the Book About? 📚

It’s subtle—the way our culture tells us what to love.
If we’re not careful, we fall in step without even realizing it—swept up in stories that were never really ours.

I’ve seen this play out in our closets.
Because closets aren’t just where we hold our clothes—
they reflect how we make choices.

What we’ve absorbed.
What we believe about who we should be.

Our closets speak.
So does everything we carry inside them.

This was my story.

My closet was overflowing with pieces I never really chose—they were there because someone else said they should be.
And in many ways… my life was too.

Then I discovered the beauty of building a capsule wardrobe.
And in the process, I found a way to return to myself.

This book follows that same path.

But instead of decluttering clothes,
this time, I began decluttering stories—
the ones quietly shaping my days, my decisions, and my sense of self.

I learned how to be myself in a world that keeps asking us to be someone else. I wouldn’t dare guess what stories are driving your life.
But I know we all have them.

I know how eventually, the clutter becomes too much.
The noise. The pressure.
The overpacked “shoulds.”

Until there’s no choice but to face what we’ve stuffed in the back for far too long.

I wrote this book to make sense of my life.
But if I’m honest—I hope it finds its way to someone who’s ready to do the same.

2 Weeks Out!! Mark your calendars for Tuesday, July 8th!

Bonus news: Audiobook will also be released on the day. :)

🗓️Tuesday, July 8th is the Official Release Date ‼️Yay‼️

👩‍💻I wrote a little something about when I found time to create… (Seriously, When?)📝

In the quiet of the night—
when the people in my house finally close their eyes and the world drifts into sleep—something shifts.

Expectations fall away,
like a pair of shoes at the end of a long day.
And for the first time, I can hear my own thoughts.

Some people find this kind of clarity in the early morning—
when the sun rises, or just before the kids wake up.
But for me, it’s the stillness of night.
That’s when time finally catches up.

This is when I wrote my best stuff—
jotting sentences into my Notes app while lying in bed,
hoping they’d still make sense in the morning.
It was the only time silent enough to sort through the noise of the day and ask myself what I really thought.

The beach had the same effect.
Vacations in Florida slowed time down.

If only for a week,
the world’s volume would fade—
and the voice inside me would turn up.

Writing—like any creative act—lives in the stillness.
Where the truths you’ve been carrying—but couldn’t quite hear—rise to the surface.
And you hold them just long enough to know your next step.

Then, write it down.

Please mark your calendar 🗓️ or set an alarm ⏰ for Tuesday, July 8th.

📕I Wrote a Book 📕 (Wait, What?!)

Hi. It’s been a minute.

Six years ago, Cladwell—the app I helped build—collapsed.

But I couldn’t let it go. I bought it back, rebuilt it, and relaunched it.

Somewhere in the middle of all that change… I started writing again.

At first, it was just a way to process.

Eventually, it became something more.
It became a book.

📖 The Road Less Worn📖
HOW TO BE YOURSELF IN A WORLD THAT WANTS YOU TO BE SOMEONE ELSE.

Part memoir, part permission slip.

About decluttering your life, not just your closet.

About remembering who you were before the world got loud.

‼️It’s coming out this July. I can’t wait to share it with you.

Cover Reveal is Sunday!! 📚

The popular rule (33 items for 3 months) isn’t mandatory. Your capsule can be as large or small as you need. The main idea is that you only own what you wear and love. And don’t be afraid to normalize repeat outfits.

Creating a capsule with a style that looks and feels like you has more to do with intention than hitting the perfect number. So if you’re looking for a place to start. First, ask yourself this:

What items can I not live without? Then consider, parting ways with the rest.

10/08/2024

Double Duty Items!!

Prioritize your pieces that can serve multiple functions. For example, a jumpsuit can be worn casually with sneakers and a beanie or dressed up with boots and a leather belt.

What’s in your closet that makes an outfit in under 60 seconds?

09/24/2024

While capsule wardrobes are often synonymous with minimalism, they can also be about maximizing what you have, quality, and most of all, knowing and honing your style. Rather than adhering to minimalism for minimalism’s sake, consider the pieces you love most and build a wardrobe around that.
