Let’s Have Some Pie
March graced us with 3.14, lovingly known as 🥧 Day—a tribute to π, the symbol of infinite exploration and integration. Learning, like π, is a dynamic and ever-evolving practice, constantly inviting us to expand our understanding.
I continue to be inspired by Maria Popova of Universe in Verse, who brilliantly pens: "An irrational number—π unmoors our basic intuitions about reality with its disquieting whisper of an infinity beyond the grasp of reason. As transient creatures suspended in space between the scale of atoms and stars, we simply cannot conceive of infinity… Meanwhile, its steadfast constancy hedges against our own transience, slaking our yearning for permanence in a cosmos governed by incessant change."
This meditation on constancy and change resonates deeply, as I navigate life transitions. Planning a relocation has brought unique challenges—particularly as my 9-year-old hopes to stay in the city and condo she’s known most of her life. Her attachment is deeply understandable, and we’ve been discussing how, while leaving what’s familiar is never easy, the only true certainty in life is change. Embracing this reality, though challenging, can become a source of growth for both children and adults alike. And learning to welcome change, we discover resilience and possibility.
On the topic of learning, I had the privilege of attending a multi-day workshop led by the renowned executive coach Stephanie Hessler. Her Aspire and Thrive masterclass provided an impactful introduction to leadership development—guiding participants to clarify their goals, understand how their mindset influences outcomes, and adopt strategies to reframe their thinking for success. It was an inspiring step toward integrating aspiration and action.
As part of my journey of integration, the Bespoke Life website is expanding to include a portal designed to support inspired living and financial wellness. Where you will find tools, treasures, and trusted partners curated to nurture your creativity and curiosity. More to come!
And as March wraps up, I am curious—what’s your go-to pie? Whether it’s a classic apple, savory chive blossom tart, or something piquant, I’d love to hear about the slice that sparks joy for you. 🥧
