Life Lately October 2025

Welcome back to Life Lately, the October edition! I am excited to recap what I’ve been up to in September and share my plans for October 2025 and life behind the scenes.

October has brought a new rhythm to my life, filled with reflection, fresh goals, and seasonal transitions. As the leaves change and the air cools, I’m focusing on finding balance between work, personal growth, and meaningful connections. This month is all about embracing change — whether it’s diving into new projects, adjusting routines, or simply making time to slow down and enjoy the autumn vibes. With October in full swing, life feels both busy and grounding, making it the perfect time to reset, refocus, and prepare for the final stretch of the year.

Currently Eating

Lately, my meals have been a delicious mix of summer favorites and cozy fall recipes. I’ve been soaking up the last of watermelon season with fresh slices and light salads, making the most of this sweet, hydrating fruit before it’s gone. At the same time, I finally tried the viral Cardi B dip that everyone’s talking about — and yes, it lives up to the hype! As cooler weather rolls in, I’m also starting to experiment with comforting fall dishes like roasted veggies, warm soups, and pumpkin-spiced everything. This in-between season has my kitchen full of variety, flavor, and fun.

Currently Watching

Right now, my watchlist is all about catching up on drama-filled reality TV and gearing up for some highly anticipated fall premieres. I’m rewatching my favorites while counting down the days until new seasons of Selling Sunset and Selling the OC return — I can’t wait for more luxury real estate and behind-the-scenes drama. I’m also looking forward to the next chapter of Vanderpump Rules, especially after last season’s explosive revelations. On the docuseries side, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives has me hooked with its eye-opening stories and emotional depth, and I’m eager for its return this fall. With so many exciting shows coming back, my TV schedule is about to get very busy!

Life Behind the Scenes

Behind the scenes, life has been all about refreshing and reorganizing this fall. I’ve been deep in a personal project: renovating my childhood bedroom into a more functional and stylish space that reflects who I am today. From choosing new paint colors to updating decor and storage, it’s been a nostalgic yet exciting transformation. At the same time, I’ve been tackling a major fall closet cleanout — letting go of pieces that no longer serve me and making room for cozy layers, timeless staples, and a more intentional wardrobe. These small but meaningful changes are helping me reset my space and mindset for the season ahead.

Nala

This October, Nala is thriving and fully embracing the cozy fall vibes. As the weather cools down, she’s been spending more time curled up in her favorite sunny spots and snuggling under blankets. Nala’s playful personality is still going strong — she’s been extra curious about the fall decor and can’t resist batting at fake leaves and pumpkin decorations. With the seasonal change, I’ve also been updating her routine with a little extra grooming and some new treats she absolutely loves. Watching Nala enjoy the simple comforts of autumn has been such a sweet reminder to slow down and enjoy the season.
