Happy spring and happy Sunday (or whatever day you’re watching this). In this vlog, I’m taking you along on a much-needed self-care day because I honestly haven’t had one in a long time. Between my full-time software engineering job, content creation (and trying to grow on Instagram), and half marathon training, I’ve been so tired. I also give a quick running update—yesterday I ran six miles (my longest ever), dealt with foot pain and my right foot going numb after four miles, but my endurance felt good. I also share my thoughts on the Honey Stinger energy gel (thick, but it helped), and why I’m listening to my body today. My day starts with maintenance: I get a manicure + pedicure, pick a spring yellow dipping powder, and talk about what I like (and don’t like) when it comes to how close the dip sits to my cuticles. Plans changed because the appointment took forever, so instead of walking to Chinatown for Vietnamese food (I miss Vietnam so much), I head to Hudson Eats for something easy. Back home, I take a three-hour nap (because yes, that counts), do my favorite part—skincare—while listening to a Mel Robbins episode, and end the night binge-watching The Closer. The big takeaway: give yourself grace, rest when you need to, and don’t force productivity when your body is telling you to slow down.
