I know I’m late to the game, but right now I’m about half-way through Elizabeth Gilbert’s Big Magic (affiliate link)—and I’m loving what she has to say about creativity, authentic living, and not taking ourselves—and our art—too seriously. I’ve also recently become obsessed, you might say, with reading about the Enneagram, and I am 90%…
5 Food & Fitness Habits I No Longer Practice
Today’s post is inspired by Ashley and Erin who both shared similar posts recently. I’ve written about how my mindset and routine concerning fitness and food have changed in the last few years—particularly since giving birth—so I thought I’d reflect on some of the ways I’ve changed for the better (read: healthier).

Food Isn’t a Feeling
For a decent portion of my life, I’ve had a tumultuous relationship with food. From extremely picky eating and food dye allergies as a child to culinary adventures and fervent attempts at “intuitive eating” throughout my adult years, food and I have long shared a power struggle.

Why I Don’t Want to Hustle
Everybody loves a good motivating quote or image, but some of the inspiration I see today seems misguided. At least for me personally, in my current season of life.

5 Books that Have Changed My Life for the Better
If you know me personally, then you know I love to read as much as I love to write. There is just something so special about losing yourself in a good story, getting to know an author when reading through a memoir, or having an “it all make sense!” revelation while absorbing the advice and…

Sometimes It’s Just a Thought
The past couple of weeks—last week, in particular—I’ve had a lot of negative thoughts and replaying of limiting beliefs.
