hi friends! today, let’s chat about something important that you may not be thinking about—health screenings! health screenings may stick out in your mind like a visit to your least favorite office (the doctor’s haha), but in reality, they can be something as simple as keeping an eye on your blood pressure each week!

hi everyone! today I’m writing to you about label reading, what I think is the most important thing for anyone who is trying to be conscious about their nutrition! even when you seem to be eating all of “the right things”, if you aren’t eating the right amount, things can be imbalanced!

hi everyone! today I want to talk a little bit about something we may not prioritize enough - RECOVERY! while moving our bodies is wonderful, there’s no benefit to overworking yourself and minimizing your rest time. today specifically, we will dive into the amazing benefits of incorporating sauna sessions into your wellness routine. whether you're a competitive athlete, a fitness enthusiast, or just someone looking to have a little more zen time, the benefits of the practice may surprise you!

did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S., but many individuals don’t know the best way to take care of their heart?

hi guys! I hope that you all have been having the most lovely week, being productive yet remembering to take some precious time for yourself.

hi friends! today I’m sharing my upper body pull workout with you all. ‘pull’ workouts can strengthen the muscles that comprise our back, biceps, and forearms. outside of direct muscle engagement, pulling exercises can improve posture, balance, and and overall mobility. since most of us spend a lot of time sitting at desks for school and work, these types of exercises can be extremely beneficial!

time for a return to the blog - better late than never right? as I write, I am back in my hometown, enjoying a nice break from the college life! this semester was a tough one, but great friends, fun times, and keeping my future goals in mind helped make it all worthwhile. now, it’s nearly 2023, and like many of you all, I am thinking, what lesson did I get out of this year? there’s so many things that I experienced, and so many lessons that I learned, but if I had to choose one thing to fully embody in 2023, I’d choose this - change is good…

At the start of November, the American Heart Association hosted a conference for the latest discoveries, the biggest breakthroughs, and the brightest minds in cardiovascular and brain health science, all in the beautiful city of Chicago…

hi friends! it has been a minute since I’ve taken to the blog, I’ve been keeping busy with traveling and spending time with friends + family this summer, but I am so excited to be writing this message today! I hope that in reading this blog about God’s provision and protection, you feel encouraged, loved, and ready to receive the great things that you deserve.

happy global running day!

here’s to celebrating the thing that changed everything for me. running has brought me community, a calling in life, and so much joy! what I love most about running is  that it’s for absolutely anyone, in any stage of life. check out this blog as I write about how to enjoy the ride, in both running and life!

now that we’re nearing the end of January, I thought I’d share some of my favorite items that I’ve used over the month!

hi friends! happy new year! I’m a few days late but it still counts for something right?

it has been a busy, exciting, and emotional december. the holidays always give us all the feels, and then just like that, we’re catapulted into a whole new year. I think that the new year is normally happy, but there’s also a twinge of sadness about it. if you had some hardship, loss, or anything like that in 2021, you may have struggled with deciding the role it would play in your 2022.

a tale of heartbreak, chick-fil-a, and best of all, hope…

Today is December 1st - the start of the last new month of 2021. Firsts of the months are always full of reflection, but even a little more so today. December means the end of a lot, but also signals the close arrival of a brand new year. 2021 was a mixed up year, maybe even more so for me than 2020 was - there was a lot of joy and a lot of pain. Either way, each moment has brought its lessons.
