Maybe it’s the fact that I just got a 90-minute massage from my favorite massage therapist in the world, but I feel the need to talk about my love of massages. I’m that person. The minute you touch my shoulders, I shimmy them to get you to rub them. I always mentally beg for physical adjustments…
Living in Portland has ruined me for coffee forever!
I went to see Coco last night. (Side note: amazing!) The theater showed a holiday-themed Frozen “long short” beforehand, centered around holiday traditions. While my date and I were not as impressed as his 3-year-old niece probably would be, it got me thinking about traditions. I LOVE Christmas. The snow, the lights, the trees. Yummy…
Let’s talk magnetism. That phenomena of two things inexplicably being drawn to each other. Ok, I know there’s “science” behind it. But regardless, it’s a pretty incredible thing. Take the connection away from metal and ore to people for a minute. Sometimes there’s that instantaneous reaction when you meet someone. I’ve found that it happens…
Warning: REAL things ahead, like Instagram not portraying real life all the time, pregnant and mom bodies, and boobs. I went to spin class yesterday for the first time in, well, a long time. I think the last time I saw this crew and got on a stationary bike to ride and sweat my face…

I’ve been a cooking storm this week, making tacos, rice bowls, huge salads. And I’m always putting an egg on it. It’s the easiest and best way to sneak in some protein and extra nutrients. And…
After I got back from my last trip to NC, I got together with a friend whose mother was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer. She’s in what I told her is the hardest stage, where they know how bad it is but haven’t finalized a treatment plan yet. There are no words to really explain…
Nothing makes a woman more beautiful than the belief that she is beautiful. – Sophia Loren The best way to “be” beautiful is to feel beautiful. It doesn’t come from owning the Tiffany heart necklace, wearing foundation, having a boyfriend, or being born with symmetrical facial features. It comes from confidence, self worth, and happiness….
The past months have been B-A-N-A-N-A-S! When you travel a lot, whether for work, pleasure, or necessity, you start calling wherever you’re going to sleep that night “home.” For me this summer, I said “home” a lot.
