MAY RECAP!

It’s been a MONTH.

First of all, weddings are SO different as an adult…. AND I applaud all the people out there who do it.

I just attended my boyfriend’s sister’s wedding (which is the closest person to me who has ever gotten married). And wow, it’s a weird experience to reflect on once it’s over. It’s something you spend so much time talking about and then it goes by in a flash.

Parents meeting for the first time, cousins reuniting, friends celebrating. Loud music, big dresses and lots of smiling faces.

I feel such a mix of joy, love, overwhelm and relief.

We all cried, we all danced and lived in the moment the best we could.

I also want to normalize (especially for a sensory sensitive person like myself) how much emotional prep and physical exhaustion comes after a big event like that! I am just getting my footing again as I’m incorporating some MUCH NEEDED self care to regulate my nervous system.

I’m so grateful for these people and this night we will all cherish forever :)

I’m super excited about posting on my “personal” Instagram account again. Check out all the wedding photos and May fun @jessicajmcdonald.

I’m back in the swing of podcast episodes and it feels SO GOOD!!! This month I released two new episodes:
