I did something recently that would've been unthinkable for me a few years ago.
Welcome to this week's Thought Gem — your reminder to pause, breathe, and choose your focus.
I let my son cut my hair. Armed with a pair of scissors and a YouTube video.
Now, I don't know about you, but there was a time when I took my hair VERY seriously. The right cut, the right products, and definitely the right person touching it.
But somewhere along the way, I've gotten a whole lot more relaxed about my hair and life. And it's been kind of freeing.
So when the opportunity came up to let my son give it a go, I thought, why not?
What's the worst that could happen? Okay, don't answer that. 😂
But here's the thing. I didn't need to make it a big production. I didn't need to worry about every possible outcome. I could just give it a try and see what happened.
How many other things in life deserve that same attitude?
Not the big, important decisions, obviously. But the little things we spend way too much time thinking about. Sometimes it's okay to keep things simple, have a little fun, and move on.
And if the haircut doesn't work out? Well, that's what hats are for.
Your invitation for this week:
What's one little thing you could stop overthinking? Maybe there's an easier way to do it than you've been telling yourself.
Happy Sunday! 💕
xoxo,
Tracy
Life is beautiful. Get your fix.
P.S. We're just a few days away from my virtual girls' night with author Kristy Halvorsen! 💕 We'll be chatting about her memoir, Perfect Unfolding, and whatever else comes up along the way. No formal book club vibes here, just a relaxed evening of conversation and connection. Haven't read the book? No problem! There's still time to grab your spot and join us Thursday!
