Can you believe it’s already the end of August? Yesterday was my last day with Pledge and it was extremely bittersweet. Despite leaving on great terms and knowing that I’m leaving to pursue a dream and make a huge impact, I was in tears by 9:30am as I posted my farewell on Instagram.
It was a quiet day for me with all of my campaigns handed over to my replacement and all intros made. The emails coming through were strictly “goodbye” and “thank you” with the occasional question or project update. One of the campaigns I managed (and pledged for) was the Soil & the Sun’s “Meridian.” This band is truly talented and I couldn’t wait until Monday to share, so here’s a video they posted of the ladies in the band performing “I Know It (I Feel It, Too).” Truly remarkable.
Anyway, it is the end of the month and it’s been a crazy month so I thought we’d look back on some of my favorite posts from the month…
Dream Big Things. Do Big Things. Make Big Impact.

The Unexpected Benefit of CrossFit
(maybe this post makes more sense given the recent events)
What was your favorite part of August?

I just recently subscribed to your blog, so I was really glad to come across your Auagust post about the unexpected benefit of Crossfit. I do not ever wear shorts in public. In fact, I haven’t worn shorts since High School. Yes, I dislike them that much! Haha. Since starting CrossFit though, I am becoming more and more comfortable with the though of wearing them and I am very excited to finally be embracing their natural shape. Your legs look awesome, btw! You should wear shorts 24/7!!
