A few weeks ago we began a long goodbye for Caitlin. My bestie. My roomie. My heterosexual life partner. I say long because after living here for 4 years, we had quite the list of things to do, places to go, people to see before she could leave. It was a bit of a farewell…
And just like that, it’s spring! I couldn’t tell you what happened to March. Or even to January and February, too. Time is just flying by, with no slowing down in sight. So let’s chat about everything that’s been going on… Bend it like burrata! At the beginning of February, we went on our annual…
I PR’ed last week. No, I didn’t win a race. Or run the fastest mile. Or run a marathon. But I ran 35 miles last week! Since leaving for North Carolina in June, my distance has taken a hit. The heat and the humidity of summer in the South interrupted the increase in distance for…
I’m not going to get political, I’m going to get empowered! At this point you’d have to be living under a rock to not notice the tension in the air right now. Since the election, all manner of emotions have been running high. No matter the side of the political spectrum you’re on, the tension…
Fall is in the air! As hard as it is to say goodbye to summer, there are so many things about fall to look forward to! Skies are blue, sunshine is warm, breezes are cool, leaves are starting to turn, fabrics are cozy, pumpkin flavors abound… One thing I absolutely love about fall is that…

Hiking, skiing, traveling, reading on the beach, trying a new coffee shop. It can be the obvious backpacking-through-Europe and hiking to the top of the…
I’ve found the perfect morning rise-and-shine combination: yoga and coffee! I know this isn’t revolutionary, and I’m not saying I drink coffee while doing yoga (nor do I recommend doing so). But my Tuesday mornings perfectly start my day! I teach 7:30am Power Vinyasa at Flex & Flow for starters. I love starting my day with…
There’s nothing that unifies women like talking boobs! Well, let’s be more specific. A universal female problem: supporting the girls! Balancing support, comfort, and cuteness is always challenging. We’re constantly on the look-out for the next best bra! What better way to hunt for a great bra than with girlfriends and wine?! The Sweat Pink and Flex…
It was truly a sunny #SundayFunday yesterday! Elizabeth, her husband Evans, their pup Blossom, and I ventured out for a hike in the wildflowers. Our options: Rowena Crest (a 1.5 mile jaunt along the Oregon side of the Gorge) and Dog Mountain (um, let’s just say the opposite). Well, we chose the latter. Except for…
