    How to just ‘BE HAPPY’ for them

    Imagine this: Your friend comes up to you and tells you about their incredible promotion. Your friend is not only smart, but also super good looking. Your friend wants for nothing and takes a vacation about four times a year. Your friend has so many other friends, and they seem to be liked by everyone…

    Strong to the Finish Challenge – Week 5

    Helloooooo and here we are at the end of week 5! I am a little late with this post – what can I say – life happens. I typically will snap a picture the day of my update post, but you’ll have to settle for this bikini-clad one from a few days back, because I…

    Mental Struggles : Blessing or Curse?

    I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this on my blog before, but I volunteer for a crisis line. I essentially listen to and support people who are having a difficult time, whatever that may mean for them. Over the past ten months, I have had the honor of hearing the stories of people from all…

  • Speaking out about Depression

    This video really touched my heart and absolutely hit home for me – the more afraid we are to talk about mental health, the more stigmatized it remains.

    Strong to the Finish Challenge – Week 4

    We finally hit the halfway point of the Strong to the Finish challenge! After some slight apprehension, I started counting calories at the end of last week so I could better track my diet.

    I need space to share my story. 

    I am an open book. You don’t have to guess with me. If I’m sad, you’ll see it. If I’m happy, I show it. If I’m angry, oh gosh you’ll know it. If something important happens in my life, the people in my life always hear about it. But I’ve been noticing a trend lately,…

    Strong to the Finish Challenge – Week 3

    I was wondering when this challenge would really start to feel like a challenge, and my question was answered this week. The week started off as it usually would, me embracing the low-carb diet, high-intensity workout life. Then on Saturday, it hit me. Like a ton of bricks. I was tired, cranky, and hella irritable.…
