Make Lemonade

Sometimes life is full of surprises, today is one of those days.  My boss resigned and took the CEO position at Lululemon (announced today).  As sad as I am to see him go, I am so excited for his new opportunity.  Seriously it's a dream job (after Louis Vuitton, Burton & T0MS, of course) and he is the perfect fit according to Business Insider.  It also doesn't hurt to have a friend who works for your favorite workout brand.  Congrats LP!!  You were a dream to work for and hopefully we will have the opportunity to work together again someday soon.  As for me, I am staying at T0MS supporting the COO.  Life is good here in Southern California.  

Eat Pray Love

Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert changed my life.  It came out when I was getting ready to move to LA and I was scared.  I quit my job, moved home and was waiting tables.  I felt like I had the entire world at my fingertips.  As I was reading I found myself highlighting passage after passage; I just couldn’t get enough, it became my anthem.  Although I’ve only read it once and I despise the movie {not a Julia Roberts fan}, this book will forever be apart of shaping my early 20’s.

"You have more good luck than anyone I've ever met. You will live a longtime, have many friends, many experiences. You only have one problem in life. You worry too much. You always get too emotional, too nervous. If I promise you that you will never have any reason in your life to ever worry about anything will you believe me?

For work, you do something creative, maybe something like an artist, and you get paid good money for it. You always get paid good money for this think you do. You are generous. Also one problem. You will loose all your money once in your life. I think it will happen soon."

M knows my dream 40th birthday present is a mini Eat Pray Love trip with my girlfriends.  Ahh what an amazing gift that would be!

32

Happy Birthday to my darling husband, M.  Today 32 years ago you graced the world with your presents and I couldn't be more grateful.  Cheers to a wonderful day/weekend filled with the ones you love.  I love you and can't wait to see what the next year has in-store for you.  xo, Peach

Words

You can accomplish anything you want, but in order to do that you have to do one thing first.

A Job

I absolutely 100% love my job!  Each and everyday I wake up and can't wait to see what the world has in store for me.  When I took the Birkman test I scored very high with creative jobs as well as social service industries, so obviously T0MS is the perfect place for me.  We create amazing products that give back worldwide.  Yes, working for the President as his assistant does have some struggles, but they positives far out weigh the negatives.  I basically get to come to work each day and work with like minded people who want to do more for humankind.  Also, our office is kind of amazing.
