Welcome to July and a stepping into the second hal

A new episode of @thesimplesophisticatepodcast , #429 , is now available, and we’re talking about “How Embracing Uncertainty Leads to a Fulfilling Life and How to Do It”. Drawing inspiration from the book The Upside of Uncertainty, the episode will give you a glimpse into all that the book offers. A book I have found to be a resource I will be keeping handy to refer to again and again along my journey.

New on the blog, Monday's Motivational post draws

New on the blog, Monday's Motivational post draws upon a French phrase - fait sur mesure - that while literally is translated into English as "made to measure", doesn't fully grasp the depth of meaning in the original phrase. And so "Build a Life that is Fait-Sur-Mesure" explores how doing so as the French phrase speaks to, when we do, our entire quality life experience elevates.

Visit TSLL.co discover how to begin building a life fait sur mesure.

The first Friday of summer and whatever the season

The first Friday of summer and whatever the season, Friday's arrival means This & That Day on the blog where not only will you discover all that is shared ⤵️ , but also where I found this house and why I gawked at it for quite some time ☺️

Stop by TSLL.co and discover ➡️ Good news is plentiful in this week’s edition of T&T, and by that I mean two items both have that name 😉. Also, cookbooks to quench your thirst for seasonal interest, delicious dinners every night, seasonal vegetable dishes taught by one who knows, clothing finds from France on sale, and others that are stylish for summer. A new film that takes us to Paris, the return of a young favorite star in an ongoing series who reprises her role of Sherlock’s sister, a French series that takes us back to Nice in the 1930s, and still, there is much more!
