☕ My Dream Coffee Date List: 10 Celebrities I’d Love to Chat With Hey, it’s KK, Let’s pretend, just for a moment, that I could text anyone famous and say, “Hey, wanna grab a latte?” No red carpet, no paparazzi — just two people, one cozy café, and all the time in the world. This post isn’t about who’s the most famous or successful. It’s about the people I’d genuinely want to talk to — over iced coffee, tea, or maybe something sweet and seasonal (shoutout to brown sugar shaken espressos). So here it is: my dream coffee date list. Ten people I’d love to sit across from and just... talk. #1 Tom Hiddleston With lattes in hand, we’d get right into Shakespeare, discussing our favorite sonnets and scenes. I’d ask him how he discovered acting was his calling, what keeps him passionate about storytelling, and if he ever journals. He seems like someone who journals. #2 Johnny Depp We’d meet somewhere a little quirky — maybe a tucked-away bookstore café. I’d ask him what it’s like to get los...

What’s in My Summer Bag

👜 What’s In My Summer Bag Hey, it’s KK, I don’t know about you, but I love a good “what’s in my bag” post — not because I’m carrying anything groundbreaking, but because I really believe what we carry says something about who we are , where we’re going , and what we’re prepared for (or not 👀). This summer, my bag is less “overpacked for every possible emergency” and more “simple, cute, and sun-season ready.” So here’s a peek at what’s coming along with me lately — from park walks to iced coffee runs to spontaneous day trips. ☀️ The Bag Itself I’ve been carrying a simple crossbody from Target (scored secondhand for a steal 🙌), and I love it. It’s lightweight, effortlessly cute, and totally fits my summer vibe without trying too hard. Bonus points: it holds way more than it looks like it should... which is an underrated quality in a bag, if you ask me. 🧴 1. SPF — Non-Negotiable Sun protection is a big deal to me, especially this time of year. I keep a mini bottle of Badger...

Learning to Be a Peaceful Presence

Learning to Be a Peaceful Presence  Hey, it’s KK, If the past few weeks have taught me anything, it’s that I’m not as patient with myself as I thought I was. I’ve always wanted to be someone who carries peace—for myself and for others—but lately, that has felt farther away than I’d like to admit. Some recent life shifts have made this clear. I’ve started a new job. I’ve entered a new living situation. I’m realizing I’m in my mid-twenties and still haven’t found that so-called knight in shining armor. And then there’s the long list of other things I wish I could control or fix — both for myself and for the people I love. The truth is, I have a big heart. I care deeply. I’m a people pleaser by nature. There are a few people in my life right now that I want so badly to help — to fix their pain, solve their problems, and just make it all disappear into thin air. But the harder I tried to fix things, the more I hit an emotional wall. And worse, I ended up doing the opposite of what I ...

June Edit

✨ The June Edit Hey, it’s KK,  June felt like one of those months that moved both fast and slow. Some days felt like forever, others flew by in a blink. But in the midst of it all, I found small joys, made tiny shifts, and collected little moments I don’t want to forget. So here’s a wrap-up of what I’ve been loving, learning, and living lately. 🌞 What I’ve Been Up To Started a new chapter: I officially launched my blog (!!) and started sharing more of my writing with the world. It's been exciting, nerve-wracking, and honestly kind of healing. New routines: I’ve been slowly building some better rhythms — slower mornings, more journaling, and fewer rushed nights. Progress, not perfection. First job shifts: Adjusting to new work routines and trying to balance real life and real rest — still figuring it out, but we’re getting there. :) 🎧 What I’ve Been Listening To “Begin Again” – Taylor Swift (because honestly, it always hits this time of year) “Ceilings” – Lizz...

A Letter To My 20s (So Far…)

Image
Honest reflections and life lessons from my twenties — a heartfelt letter about growth, faith, and the messy journey of becoming.  Hey, it’s KK here, If someone had told me what my twenties would look like, I’m not sure I would’ve believed them. Full of twists, turns, unexpected growth, and more than a few “what am I even doing?” moments. I’m writing this letter as a little snapshot — a pause to reflect on the ride so far, with all its messiness and magic. Because if you’re anything like me, you know the twenties are as confusing as they are exciting. ---      Lesson #1: It’s okay not to have it all figured out There’s a lot of pressure to have your life planned out by now — career, relationships, where you’ll live… But honestly? I’m still figuring it out, and that’s okay. Life is not a straight line, and every detour has taught me something valuable. *not my image (found on Pinterest)      Lesson #2: Small moments matter It’s not always the big events...
