Nush & Doza

As we sat down to reflect on July 2023 together, we were overcome with so much emotion and reminded how incredible the journey has been for us as we commemorated five years of Nush & Doza. The last five years have been filled with so many twists, turns, and milestones, both big and small. Today's retrospective also marks our 13th reflection, one year since we started our Monthly Retrospective Series.

January 2023 indeed flew right on by quicker than we can even begin to process in some ways! In fact, as we sat down to reflect on this past month and put together the next installment of our Monthly Retrospective Series we realized the series has shifted a bit even in its first 6 months of existence. While we continue to share behind-the-scenes highlights from our day-to-day along with a message to ourselves that we hope others might find helpful or resonate with, the posts themselves have been a mashup of a few things.

Humorously the holidays have earned a bit of a sided, yet mixed reputation depending on who you ask.

Motivation is a tricky thing. With the right circumstances, motivation can be a powerful tool in accomplishing your goals and deeply contribute to the feeling of you moving forward in life. After all, who doesn't want to move forward? It's pretty much a universally reliable direction to head in right?

The time has finally come to say goodbye to Overwatch before its successor, Overwatch 2, comes out on October 4th. We’ve been thinking a lot about this legendary game that has had such a lasting impact on our lives.

Perseverance By Practicing Gratitude - Nush & Doza

During our recent hiatus these past few months, we've had a lot of long days that ended with us laying in bed in a comatose-like state binge-watching a bunch of shows since we were too exhausted to do anything else. However, something was different about watching shows together this time around compared to even just a few years ago, let alone watching shows growing up. There was a noticeable increase of some much-needed diversity all around,
