Several years ago, I left my law firm job, packed up my dog Holly, the love of my life and my absolute soulmate, and a backpack, and started traveling the world full-time.

People often asked what I was looking for.

The truth is, I wasn’t looking for anything.

I was just curious.

Curious about the world, about people, about what might happen if I followed my own path instead of someone else’s.

What followed were some of the most beautiful, transformative, heartbreaking, and meaningful years of my life.

Because if there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I love feelings.

Wonder. Joy. Love. Grief. Awe. Connection. Meaning.

The moments that make us feel deeply alive. And they did – after traveling around for a bit, I got married to the human love of my life and became a mom to not just Holly, but the other love of my life, my cat Sonny.

Then, in 2023, I lost Holly.

Losing her changed me forever. It reminded me how precious life is, how temporary everything is, and how important it is to spend our brief time here fully living it.

This space is where I write about all of that—the adventures, the grief, the spirituality, the reinventions, and the lessons learned along the way.

So why The LITMO Life?

Because when I was younger, my dad responded to every anxiety, worry, and existential crisis with the same advice:

“Live in the moment only.”

Eventually, that became LITMO.

A philosophy. A reminder. A way of life.

Because the only moment we ever truly have is this one.

Welcome.

Let’s LITMO together.
