Random Thoughts #1
I read a lot. Like a lot a lot. I was recently reading “Find your people” written by Jeanie Allen and this book was BY FAR one of the most powerful books I have read in a long time. Powerful books in terms of the “holy shit I have been dumb” moments. This book made…
#NeedToKnow: 5 facts about Sugar
We ALL love a good sweet treat. Whether that is chocolate or twizzlers, everyone has a vice. But at what cost? For the past year and a half, I started learning what sugar actually does to our bodies, and I thought I’d share some of those things with you all. There is a REAL difference…
The “Quick-Fix”
It’s not that people can’t do something, it’s that they choose not to. It’s as easy to do something as it is not to do something. It’s as easy to grab a cookie as it is to not grab a cookie. Think about it, how many small, seemingly harmless decisions do you make a day…
Guess what tomorrow is…
That’s right. Tomorrow is Monday. In case you didn’t know, Monday is very serious for us around here. I will keep reminding you all until the end of time just how important it is. You see, for the longest time, I always broke promises to myself. I came up with every excuse on the planet…
Do it scared.
I was listening to the song “moment for like” by Nicki Minaj and I SUDDENLY got flooded with emotions. I literally could not believe this is my life. This time last year I was overcoming a heartbreak/just starting to understand what “self-worth” actually means. Time and time again, I was allowing someone else to control…
So we did a thing…
If you haven’t seen, my best friend and I started a PODCAST! This is quite literally a dream come true because we have been talking about starting once pretty much since day 1 of us becoming friends. Dani and I have had very long and hard journeys to becoming the women we are today. Starting…
Maryland Heights: A review
Last weekend we decided to unplug, de-stress, and enjoy the fresh air of Harper’s Ferry. We camped at the Adventure Center on the MD/VA line. (Review to come on the stay!) The main attraction for the weekend was the Maryland Heights Trail. If you don’t know, this trail is about 1300ft of elevation gain and…
DO IT TODAY
We are reminded too often how short life is. Something happens, someone we love dies, we see something that reminds us of it…. Then we say to ourselves we are going to start doing “X”, stop doing “Y”, enjoy this or that more… And then nothing in our life changes. Just stop it. Stop promising…
Whole30 & Sugar Withdraw
For Phase 1 of #75Hard, I chose to follow Whole30. On Whole30, you basically only eat things that Cavemen eat, minus red wine and a few other things. The purpose of this is to eliminate foods that cause inflammation. You cannot consume ANYTHING with sugar or artificial sugar in it. Nada. So while I was…
Are you willing to do what it takes?
It’s Monday again. If you’re new around here, you may not know this, but we take them very seriously. We don’t skip them. We show up. We do what we promised ourselves we’d do. We don’t make excuses. We GET IT DONE. Did you promise yourself you’ll make healthier choices? Promise yourself you’ll workout? That…
