Have you ever had a Really Big Goal on your list of To-Do’s that keeps alluding you? A few weeks ago, I shared my Q1 Goals and way down on the list was: Beautifying The Apartment. The thing is…it’s really so much bigger than just making the apartment look nice. So. Much. Bigger. We…
It is now firmly into 2020, almost the middle of January and you know what that means? It’s time to get some writing done! As I gear up to start revisions again I thought you might like to see a list of the things I need to start writing. ☕️ Coffee – mmmm, coffee 📕…
Exercise. It can seem like a dirty word, right? Like a curse. I’ve never been that big on exercise. For example, in gym class as a kid, I would purposely get hit with the dodgeball so I could sit down. I was tall, uncoordinated, and fat. Starting in 2nd grade I was almost always the…
As you may (or may not know) I love setting 90-day goals – I started this in the fall of last year and it really did help me be more productive…until I wasn’t. That’s when I realized that I like having my goals mapped out for the quarter but only the first 3-4 tasks written…

Staring out our bedroom window, I have a great view of this one giant tree as it changes from green to various hues of fall. I noticed something yesterday though for the first time…
I had the immense pleasure of being interviewed yesterday by my friend, Brenda Vander Zaden, for her Postpartum Body Series project. I had the best time talking about how much stronger I feel within my body after giving birth to my son – you can watch the Facebook Live HERE if you’d like! The other…
In my last article, I talked about the phrase “life’s purpose” and how I think it can sometime’s hold you back from doing the things that you love and care about. This week I want to talk about embracing the things you enjoy. In the same vein as last week, I really dislike the way…
Have you found your life’s purpose yet? Do you cringe when someone asks you this question? I still hate this question and I feel like I’m way closer to finding the answer than I was even 2-3 years ago…but who knows? My passions and dreams have changed so drastically in the 20 (what?!?!) years since…
