Welcome back to the second year of Life Lately, the January edition! I am excited to recap what I’ve been up to in December and share my plans for January 2025 and life behind the scenes.
Life Lately January 2025
Happy New Year! I’m excited to continue the second year of the Life Lately series! I started this series last year and it has been such a hit for me. Sharing what I am up to each month online and offline is very exciting and I cannot wait to start this year off with the first Life Lately post for 2025.
2024 was filled with lots of adventures, travel and day trips. Utilizing canon camera really came in handy this this year and I’m proud of some of the photos I’ve taken this year. I also spent a lot of time in 2024 creating videos for brands on Instagram and TikTok. I want to focus less on brand work in 2025 and focus more on just creating content for myself and what makes me happy.
Additionally, I also launched a podcast in November called Life In Style and am focusing on spending time recording episodes for 2025. The episodes will be released on Wednesday’s at 9:00 AM EST and you can find the podcast on either YouTube or Spotify.
For the blog, I am going to try to aim to publish one blog post per week rather than two. to write more about interior design, fashion, travel and food.
Currently Eating
Chocolate mousse has been a fan favorite this past month for me. It’s so light and ethereal, yet also feels rich and decadent at the same time. While I do love to indulge in sweets, I plan to severely cut back this year as I want to focus more on my health.
With the holidays behind us, it’s time to get back to eating healthier. I always take full advantage during the holidays and let myself indulge.
Meal prepping on Sunday’s has been a lifesaver for me. My schedule is already so hectic during the weekdays that I barely have time to cook anything once dinner time rolls around.
Currently Watching
I am all caught on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and can’t wait for the remaining episodes to air in January.
Prison Break is another show that I recently started watching on Netflix. It is so addicting to watch and each episode leaves you wanting to know what’s going to happen next. Funny thing, I actually started watching this show when I was about twelve years old as this show aired before House, but I only watched a few episodes and am glad that I can binge it all on Netflix without any commercial breaks!
The sixth season of Virgin River also recently came out, which I also cannot wait to watch!
Life Behind The Scenes
Since I work from home, it truly has been such a struggle getting out of the house and getting movement in. I really enjoy pilates and have taken classes in the past and I look to continue this in January 2025.
Setting a routine and having a planner helps keep me organized and my days structured. It also makes me extremely productive when I write something down – I’m more likely to do it if I write it down.
As of now, I don’t have any travel plans, but I might consider taking some local day trips to some towns nearby. A few places I’d like to visit this year include Charleston, Savannah and London.
Nala
Nala has been keeping busy throughout the day. In the morning she hangs out with the birds and squirrels in the morning for their morning coffee and during the day she takes long naps dreaming about them.
She usually is on do not disturb from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, she needs to catch her beauty sleep.
Nala received a generous vacation after the holidays since she’s been hustling at the biscuit factory. She’ll definitely be back taking biscuit orders sometime in mid-January.
January 2025
That wraps up the January 2025 edition of Life Lately! See you in February!
