Most of my life I have struggled with body image. Always unsatisfied with how I looked and constantly trying to achieve what I thought was the only acceptable body type (I know better now that there isn't one perfect size and shape). Sometimes taking unhealthy measures to get there (extreme diets, excessive exercise, etc.). I … Continue reading What Pregnancy Taught Me About Self Love
Ever since finding out we were pregnant I have become much more aware of how much money I spend on unnecessary things (like eating out and shopping) and also how much "stuff" we have that we don't need or use.

I … Continue reading What I Wish I Could Tell My Younger Self About Love
Wow, we are already one month into the New Year! At the beginning of this year I shared my goals and intentions for 2018.

Productivity and time management, two things I definitely need to work on this year.
