It feels strange sharing my final post in my series celebrating women business owners given the country’s current situation, but now, more than ever, it’s important to promote local businesses however we can. Fortunately, I was able to complete an in-person interview with the women of Mission Fitness in early March. I hope you’ll support…

5 Food & Fitness Habits I No Longer Practice
Today’s post is inspired by Ashley and Erin who both shared similar posts recently.

Vacations & Working Out
I have a sneaking suspicion that I’m in the minority when I say this (at least among healthy living bloggers and HLB-readers) but…when I travel, I don’t work out. At least not intentionally. For me, travel is about relaxing, sight-seeing, and taking a break from my “normal life.” It means eating foods I don’t eat…
