Need a little push?
Ever just wake up on the wrong side of the bed? Of course. It happens to all of us. We all have different techniques to turn our day around. Today, I’m sharing one of mine. When I first started my health journey, I was introduced to motivational videos on Youtube and I fell in love…

Where are all the Gym Resolutioners?
Hey everyone! So there I am in my room the other night, readying myself for bed, when my boyfriend turns to me and notes that he hasn’t seen the typical influx of “gym resolutioners” this year. This observation struck me. When I thought about it, I realized that he was right; the gym didn’t seem…

Never give up on your dreams (ever).
What is your limit? When do you decide that it’s time to “throw in the towel” on that thing you’ve been working towards, you know, because it’s not ‘working out’. There is no line drawn in the sand, no official end etched in stone. It’s up to you. When it gets hard, we always want…

On Getting Stuck
If you haven’t been stuck before, you haven’t lived. I get stuck, you get stuck, we all get stuck. In jobs. In relationships. In friendships. In our hobbies and interests. In our own personal growth. I’ve been stuck, at one point or another, in all of these. I’ve stayed in relationships for years longer than…

How to Make Your Goals Work For You
I love seeing the fire in someones eyes when they talk about their goals. If your eyes light up when you begin talking about the things you want to accomplish, then there is a passion there that will drive them to put in the work. But goals are one thing – and reaching them is…

Are your goals working FOR or AGAINST you?
I would consider myself a “people person” – and I have to say that I truly enjoy hearing what someone’s goals are and how they intend to get there. I see the fire in people’s eyes ignite when they begin talking about the things that they want to accomplish, and I know there is a…

How to keep going when you kinda sorta want to die.
If you’ve ever struggled with mental illness, you know what I’m talking about. I’m talking about the painful reality of the incredible indifference some experience about their own untimely death. Could step out into traffic, could not. Not caring is the worst. There is nothing quite like experiencing apathy over your own life or death.…
