Does this title feel like a loaded question? I promise I am not testing your IQ , EQ (emotional intelligence), or any other level of knowingness! Instead we are going to examine how you don't know what you don't know until you know, ya know? Whether it's been the discovery of a fun kitchen gadget [...]
Give It Your All
Hello there! Lets start this week off with a little riddle. What do you call a pig that does karate? (Scroll to the end for the answer.) Pigs are cute but have absolutely nothing to do with this week's topic. Unless the pig is giving it's very best effort at karate. As I mentioned last [...]
Kindness.
Hey there! I took an unintended writing break. I wish I could say I did something really fun and adventurous while on hiatus, but aside from my weekly adulting responsibilities I was deeply engrossed with reading, studying, and learning. Cliffhanger: I do have a fabulous bucket list adventure on my horizon!! I will be sure [...]
Ancestral Eating & Food Sourcing
It seems as though the hottest topic in nutritional conversations these days is which diet you embrace: Keto, Paleo, Plant Based Whole Foods, Vegan, Vegetarian, Atkins, or Pegan (the Paleo-Vegan hybrid). While I do happen to have a personal preference on what type of diet I believe creates the highest level of wellness for my [...]
Internal Construction Zone
The home improvement project in my basement prompted some self reflections on my own internal construction projects where I broke things down to my own foundation. Whether your New Year's aspirations require minor or major attention, I hope you reach your goals with grace and ease. Remember, if you want something you've never had you [...]

Happy 2019! We're off to a new year and with it comes new year's resolutions, goal setting, or intentions. On the surface these things all seem interchangeable and synonymous, but technically they do vary. I'll get to this in a bit, but since I have found putting my intentions down on paper to be one [...]
When Growth Reveals Itself
Hi friends! This week I am going to share with you the story of Christmas 2018 because I feel it beautifully embodies the growth I have made in my thinking this year. Christmas morning began a little off the intended plan. I had set my alarm to wake early, workout, join my family for church, [...]
Joy to the World
Tis the season for hustle, bustle, gifts, wrapping, food preparation, cookies, candy, family, friends, light gazing, carols, and everything which defines and creates your festive holiday spirits. I have thought about and dismissed this topic several times throughout the week. However, events and reminders keep popping into my life so I'm taking it as a [...]
Abundantly Abundant Abundance
Man, with a title like that the topic of this blog isn't predictable at all huh? My perspective of abundance has long been an experience of chasing a unicorn riding leprechaun to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I had long believed abundance was limited to monetary gain and was something [...]
Winning with Reality 100% of the Time
I hope you had a wonderful and delightful Thanksgiving! My family has had a long standing and cherished tradition of turkey, bowling, football, and loved ones. One of the things I am most thankful for is my family, but time spent together hasn't always been the easiest thing for me to embrace. Family has [...]
