This new series will happen every so often to round up some of my favorite things to listen to, read or participate in. I hope something catches your eye (or ear)!
Song of the Week
Green Light by Lorde
The highly anticipated new single from Lorde has been recently released and I'm not gunna lie, I can't get it out of my head. I've been a longtime fan of her music, and although this album seems like it's going in a slightly different direction sound-wise, it's still a great time! Also don't forget to check out her performance of the song on Saturday Night Live– complete with signature spastic dancing that kills me every time.

This advice below is something that we all (especially I) need to remember as we push through our to-do lists.
