Founder of Vow + Vast, Kristen Diaz. She is all about casual chic.

“No matter the venue, you can always catch me looking put together and feeling comfortable.”

I made it! After two days, very little sleep and lots of coffee, I am officially in Albany. No limbs missing, just mostly brain fried as two sisters would be after driving up the coast for 2 days. The best piece of advice about driving up? Actually make it a road trip. Not a marathon. Take a few more days off, put the “getting there” anxiety to bed, and take longer rest stops in cities you have not been in before. Explore a little bit. Safely though!

I just finished watching an Instagram live with @SolStudioMarketing all about finding focus as a creative entrepreneur. They started talking about what balance actually means for someone that’s running an online business or freelancing in the online space. This resonated with me so much, because I’ve personally struggled with both the word “hustle” and the word “flow”.

I did it, you guys! After spending the time to build the foundation for the virtual and remote aspects of Vow + Vast, I’m in a position to start traveling full time to work wherever I want.

Ah, productivity. One of our favorite words over here at Vow + Vast. You’re probably thinking yep. I’ve heard of “productivity”. I’ve tried “productivity”. And I’m still stuck where I was months ago.”

Ladies, let’s get real. We work hard, we (sometimes) play hard, but we never really give ourselves the break we need.
