On Solo Travel:
The Luxury of Solitude: Coming off my first solo getaway, this NPR article by Linda Holmes came at the perfect time. “We have a certain cultural mistrust of solitude, I think. It is for weirdos and lost souls, spinsters and misfits. But in truth, I can’t tell you what a luxury I think it is to be entitled to it.” I couldn’t agree more.
On Living With Purpose:
How I Live On Purpose: I love this post from Your Super Awesome Life’s Ashley about living on purpose as part of Dr. Danielle Dowling’s book/blog tour. I’ll have a post up later this month on this very topic!

This Week on JessicaLawlor.com:
Three Things Pushing Me Outside My Comfort Zone Right Now: I want to share with you some recent examples of how I’m getting gutsy. Here are three things pushing me *way* outside my comfort zone right now.
Monthly Check-In: Goodbye October, Hello November: Each monthly check-in, I share three things I accomplished in the previous month and preview three things I’m excited for in the month ahead.
Goals
- Launch a reader survey for the blog. I have never done a reader survey, but now that the blog has been around for more than two years, I thought it would be a great time to learn more about the community, what you want and how I can make the Get Gutsy blog even better. Stay tuned.
- Get back on track with exercise this week. I mentioned in my monthly check-in that my health is a big focus for me this month; this week, I’ve got four yoga classes (including a yoga ab workshop) and two days of running on my calendar.
