March is always full of ups and downs for me. My kids are on March break (just wrapping up the week now!), anniversary of my mother's death (today, the 17th - it's been 6 years) and my wedding anniversary is on the 18th (tomorrow, 12 years married!). So many emotions packed into one little week.
Loved this post so much. I have so many feelings about March too, and it makes me always think of 2020 now as well — how everything changed from then. My mom was diagnosed with cancer that month and I started working from home “for just 2 weeks” (3 years later, still at it!), and it was just one unexpected domino after another from there. Anyways, thanks for sharing and making me stop and reflect. Hope your run went amazing.💛
Twenty! Home! Running! Family! Friends! All the best stuff with the best happy narrative! And… It was a great week of listening too! (PS- the tortellini soup recipe you shared was divine!)
"My dream in life would be to launch a women-in-business summit with Keeley Jones and Alexis Rose. Can you imagine?! (Breakout Session #1: What is a CFO?)" // I CAN IMAGINE AND I AM HERE FOR THIS!!
There’s no place like home, so I certainly can’t fault you for staying home, but I’ll certainly miss you at the finish line! One year earlier NYC Half was my first postpartum race too!
Oh my gosh this brought tears to my eyes. As a former NYCer who will always feel like going home when I fly into JFK, I miss all the things you shared. My friends, the park, long walks, brunch in the village. My quality of life is so much better in Buffalo than it would have been but I also think about what “NYC Jackie” would be doing now. Thank you for giving words to what I’ve felt!
Wow, well said. Respect for putting such complex thoughts and emotions into words. Thanks for sharing and congrats on living a beautiful and unplanned life!

As a lapsed theater kid, I really appreciated the episode this week!

Man I’m going to gnaw on this today. I agree, I don’t think any of us have fully processed the pandemic!
