I haven't written in a long time. I've been so busy with a lot of exciting things. I'm going to start working on my Master's start in June. I've been preparing for my super intense yoga training in July. Just a lot of big things happening (more in the works too). It's been 3 months … Continue reading Learning What Makes Me Tick

An Open Letter to the Man Who Unknowingly Impacted a Student
To The Man at Buffalo Wild Wings, Today, one of my students came to me and told me all about you. He couldn't wait to tell me what had happened the night before.

I Quit Caffeine and It’s Been the Best Decsision
About a month ago I decided to quit drinking caffeine. After realizing I had PCOS, I read that caffeine can cause problems with your insulin. Which it did, I was always starving after drinking coffee, I was shakey and felt like shit. I wish I could tell you that I had some trick that made … Continue reading I Quit Caffeine and It’s Been the Best Decsision
Writing Choices-An Open Letter
Dear Readers, As some of you know, I was contributing to a millennial women's website for a bit. And as some of you know, my articles have tapered off there.

The Balancing Act

I like having a bedtime, I know I need to get my chores … Continue reading The Balancing Act

However, just because we say or do something with good intentions does not mean that it is good for someone else. I was listening to … Continue reading The Insensitive Shit We Unintentionally Say
Dry-ish January
As one of my bucket list items I decided I wanted to take one month (at least) off from drinking any alcohol. Now, in the U.K. apparently, they do Dry January to start the new year off cleaner. I like this idea, however, I'm starting a little late. I will be starting on … Continue reading Dry-ish January
I Am A Feminist, But Feminism Cannot Be Generalized
As thinking person with a conscience, I am fiercely feminist. I know and have seen the effects of women being marginalized and treated like objects. I’m also completely aware of the crazy gap between men in leadership roles versus women. I am also aware that even in the creative space, men are far … Continue reading I Am A Feminist, But Feminism Cannot Be Generalized
Why It’s ok to Skip the Gym
I’m very fortunate and have had a fall break this week. In my head, I had a lot of things I was going to get done. A lot of cleaning, a lot of errands and I was going to be at the gym every. Single. Day. Then instead, I was sick for 4 days. I … Continue reading Why It’s ok to Skip the Gym
Why I Love Fall and Other Random Updates
I know it’s pretty cliché to be a fan of fall right now, but I do not care. It really is my favorite. I love cool mornings and afternoons. Mornings where you can sip coffee for hours and it tastes so great. I love when the leaves change colors. I also get a … Continue reading Why I Love Fall and Other Random Updates
