Wouldn’t it be wild if instead of defining our days, our ventures, our goal achievement (or lack thereof) as either successes or failures…we instead looked at them through a lens of progress – where we started vs. where we are now – wouldn’t that feel more easeful? The journey to our destination would feel a […]
I can’t be the only one who does everything in their power NOT to get sick while traveling. Call me crazy, but I want to ensure that I’m feeling my BEST when I’m out on adventures or exploring a new city. It’s not fool-proof because there are times I still get sick or catch a […]

I know for some, female friendships can be hard or non-existent. I consider myself extremely blessed to […]
Is it just me or did we just fly through February? Without any pomp and circumstance, here are the things I’m lovin’ this month: The Peloton Bike. This comes as no surprise to me whatsoever. I am naturally motivated and a self-starter, so I knew if we invested in this piece of equipment it would […]
In honor of Black History Month, I sat down with my dear friend, Robert Phillips, to discuss how we can create intentional space in our lives to celebrate and partake in black history.
