August was a month of both personal transition and professional momentum. Throughout the month, I spent time with friends watching the BTS Army documentary and catching a mix of food adventures – from taco trucks to DineLA specials. I also continued decluttering and preparing my apartment for new roommate, which has been a blessing bringing new rhythms and companionship at home through sharing meals, shows and daily life together.
On the career side, I pushed forward with coaching training and continuing to build my YouTube channel and starting new series QuickBooks 101. Encouraging new opportunities arose: CFWLA reached out for bookkeeping help and I have connected with Robert Half for potential consulting roles. I’m also sharing my journey and services with more people.
Healthwise, I kept up with appointments – annual eye exam, physical, flu shot and even a broken aligner replacement. Walking and prayer continue to anchor my days and overall my sleep has improved. It’s a reminder that life in this season is about perseverance in faith and enjoying the daily gifts of friendship, community and simply joys.

Come, all you who are thirsty,
Isaiah 55
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without cost.
Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
and you will delight in the richest of fare.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
