After being injured for most of the fall, I was so excited to get back into working out this winter. I have my usual favorite workouts here in Madison (Dragonfly’s Power Up and Flyght), but I wanted to mix things up and try some new classes. ClassPass was doing a free month deal in January […]
Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of women? I had absolutely no idea. I’ve never seen a woman have a heart attack in a movie. I was never taught about heart disease in health class. I’ve never really even thought about my heart health as a twenty-something woman. So, I […]
When I posted on Instagram last month that I was going back to therapy, I was totally blown away by the response – it was my most liked photo almost immediately and y’all shared such honest and insightful comments. So, I wanted to continue the conversation and share a little bit more about my journey […]
The last time I checked in on here about my marathon training I was just starting out and so excited about it, but a lot has changed since then! I still love running, I’m excited by the prospect of running a marathon, but unfortunately that won’t be happening this year. I made a promise to […]
Psychologists say that if a friendship lasts longer than 7 years it will last for a lifetime and I especially believe that if those years are in your 20’s.

Guys! I’m finally doing it! I’ve been talking about running a marathon for years and I’m equal parts excited, terrified, and somehow already exhausted. This is a huge step for me on my running journey and I can’t wait to share all the ups and downs (oh so many downs lol) of my marathon training […]
Buckle up, y’all. This one’s a bumpy ride. For those of you who follow me on Instagram, you may already know that I got off birth control for the first time in almost 7 years in early February. I’ve read studies and listened to testimonials from other women that felt profound emotional differences after getting […]
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen that I’ve been dealing with some mental health stuff lately (I’m gonna share more a little while), so instead of dwelling on how awful all that shit’s been I wanted to share some fun, wonderful things that I’ve been up to. I was listening to […]
A few weeks ago, I hit a social media WALL. I woke up one day and had absolutely no interest in it anymore. I felt burnt out, uninspired, and totally drained by social. I understand where it came from: I was doing way too much at once. I was working overtime at my full time […]
I’ve talked a little bit on social media about applying for my PhD and, well, the results are in: I didn’t get into any of the PhD programs I applied for. And I’m like weirdly okay with it? Obviously, I’m bummed and it’s hard to hear that all the hard work I put in applying […]
