meet: courtney

she/her

✺ favorite ritual:

The sound of coffee beans grinding first thing in the morning, moving my body, and stories at bedtime.

✺ favorite music artists:

A bestie once described my music taste as lingering in the crescendo of a flow yoga class, and my daughter will occasionally request a "sad pump up" mix from me.

My faves are everything from alt-pop to downtempo electronic, anything moody, a good remix, or a song with deep lyrics and something to say.

On repeat are Shallou, Yoste, Emmitt Fenn, Leon, Florence, and my forever and always loves: Coldplay and Counting Crows. 

✺ favorite local spots:

Queen City Coffee for obsess-worthy coffee and humans, Nude Foods for clean groceries and anti-plastic, Green Collective for a delicious & nourishing bite, and the trails of South Table Mountain for sunrise. 

✺ words to live by:

exhale. inhale. begin again.
