We went on friend-cation (vacation with friends) in February 2020 to PVR (before the pandemic shut everything down) and absolutely loved it. It was easy to get to and a place we definitely plan on visiting again. It’s right on the coast and is a beach city, but there are mountains all...

I’ve been to Banff twice in the last year. Once in mid-October on a girls trip then again the following mid-September with Jeff and Leon.

I absolutely love Banff and the entire Icefields Parkway area going up to Jasper. Like obsessed and wondering if we should move there. I can’t...

I’ve been to Banff twice in the last couple of years and I’m somehow just now getting around to writing a full travel guide! I’ve been in mid-October and mid-September.

First, let me just say I LOVE BANFF SO MUCH.

If you enjoy the outdoors and some of the most stunning landscape...

Our home base is outside Denver, Colorado and when I share photos on social media from our hikes, I typically get a lot of questions about our favorite hikes around the area. So, I figured I’d create a Google Map for you that contains them all! I’ll be sure to keep this updated...

When I went back home recently to visit, I decided on a whim to interview my dad (Glen Carrico) about his career. All while my sisters and I were growing up he had a “normal” corporate career and it wasn’t until later in life he stepped away and became a small business owner. I...

We travel everywhere with our dog, Leon. It’s kind of our thing… we work remotely and travel the world with our dog in tow. We now have a kiddo so it's about to get a bit more complicated but more on how we do that later. Bringing our dog along on trips sounds kind of weird at first,...

It was simple, really (or so I thought)… The life I wanted was to be able to work from anywhere with my husband and dog. Jeff and I no longer wanted to worry about rationing the PTO time we took off from work for vacations and visiting family or taking turns running home on lunch...

A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to be a speaker at the Monetize Your Genius Summit that was put on by Daniela Nica and her team. The summit had quite the roster of impressive speakers (50+!) and even being a small part of it was such an honor. 

During the virtual summit, Daniela...

The day started like any other one really. I guess that’s how most tragic stories start, huh?

Actually, it was great in the beginning. Jeff and I (and Leon) were packing up in Denver, CO and catching a flight to Florida and were excited to get some beach time in and work from Sandestin for...

I love the fresh start of a new year! There are so many possibilities and options ahead that it makes me giddy. Anyone else?! There are a variety of methods, plans, and tools that are used to do goal setting and ways folks like to prepare for a new year. 

I’ve heard of choosing a word...

With the holiday season being here, I thought it would be a good time to chat about how to manage taking time off work as an independent contractor or freelancer. I fully believe just because you can work from anywhere, doesn’t mean you always should. It is so important to take some time...
