Well, here we are! The moment we’ve all been waiting for: back to the gym and back to school! *wink* Over the last few weeks there has been some easing of the restrictions and reopening of gyms. Some people have booked gym slots or classes, while some other people have continued enjoying summer weather with […]
Hi friends, Happy to see your beaming faces on my blog again. In today’s post, I want to talk about a subject very important to me: mental health in sports. This one is a long one, so grab a cup of coffee and settle in. Thank you for spending a few minutes with me. You […]
Hi friends, Thank you for reading this. You could be doing so many other things with your time and energy so it means a lot to me that you’re here. I’m finally writing blogs and newsletters. About time eh! I took my time- or procrastinated for years…ha! – and it’s important for me to share […]
I don’t want to write about fucking avocado toast. I’ve been a storyteller as long as I can remember. First, I found myself in journalism only to switch my major to communication. It was after I started blogging that I discovered my passion for fitness and nutrition. When I was younger I didn’t care if […]
Concussions and their effects have been, increasingly, analyzed and heavily discussed in recent years in medical and athletic circles alike.

Self-love isn’t always naps and bubble baths, cheery and cute. Sometimes it’s ruthless, honest, raw, exhausting, and life-changing. It’s looking at your own reflection and making peace with every perceived flaw. It’s crying on the bathroom floor only to gasp in a bit of hope. It’s feeling worthless and finding an ounce of confidence. It’s […]
Maybe it’s leaving a toxic relationship. Maybe it’s choosing what to do with your body. Maybe it’s opportunities with work and career. Maybe it’s driving really fast and feeling the wind in your hair. Freedom to me is having choices and making a choice because I want to, not because I have to. One of […]

Obviously, there are better food choices that are nutrient-rich, fresh, local, and ethical. Obviously, different ways of eating work for some people and not for others. I’m […]
