More Than Just A Sip…

I used to think life was all about the big moments: the job offers, the breakups, the butterflies.

But lately, I’ve started to wonder… what if the real magic happens somewhere in between?

Like over a perfectly timed coffee with your best friend, where you end up deep diving into each other’s dating lives.
Or during that second cocktail when you finally admit how you really feel about him.
Or on a random Tuesday night when you get dressed up with nowhere to go, just to talk about everything and nothing over wine.

Right now, I’m in one of those mid 20s in-between phases — not quite in the next chapter, no longer in the last. This blog is my way of pressing pause — of romanticizing the mess, the magic, and all the conversations that make life interesting.

When I think about the moments that have shaped me most, they all have one thing in common: they happened in between sips, whether over coffee, a cocktail, a mocktail, or an ice cold Coke.

It’s the family dinners filled with laughter, passed plates, and “cheers” to whatever we’re celebrating that night.
It’s date nights with my boyfriend, where one glass of wine turns into hours of dreaming, and planning.
It’s long afternoons with my best friend, sipping on an iced coffee, a lot of “exacctlyyyy” and solving every relationship problem in the world — or at least think we are.

These are the moments I hold onto — the ones that seem ordinary at the time but somehow become the stories we tell for years.

That’s what In Between Sips is all about.

It’s not just a blog — it’s a girlfriend group chat you can join anytime. A place to talk about love, dating, friendship, and figuring out life without taking it too seriously. Sometimes it’s a story, sometimes it’s advice, and sometimes it’s just a reminder that you’re not the only one overthinking a text.

It’s everything fun, but also everything real — the kinds of things we’d talk about if we were sitting across from each other, lattes in hand or wine glasses half full.

So whether it’s coffee, a cocktail, a mocktail, or even a Diet Coke — welcome. 🥂

The best stories are rarely planned… more often, they start in between sips.
