looking back on my 22 for 2022

I know I literally say this every year when I am writing these posts, but somehow it is officially 2023. It has taken me over a week to get in the groove and back to reality after the holidays and that's okay! I am here, ready to kick start 2023 and be back on the … Continue reading looking back on my 22 for 2022

22 for 2022

It is no secret that 2022 has gotten off to a rough start. Quite honestly, I have been in a major funk and it's been tough getting back "to the grind". Realizing this will now be third year we will be living in this pandemic is just heavy, stressful, and depressing. At first I truly … Continue reading 22 for 2022

looking back on my 21 for 2021

I have no idea how, but here we are officially in 2022. While 2021 gave us some of the most difficult days of our lives (again) coupled with continued stress and anxiety... I am trying to focus on the pockets of light that were able to shine through anyway. There has been one thing that … Continue reading looking back on my 21 for 2021

Something to think about

Good day my friends! It seems we all have some reflecting to do today. It's pretty ironic though right? Yesterday everyone was seemingly scrambling the for the entire workday without Facebook and Instagram, today it has given everyone fresh content. The amount of memes, posts, polls, and tweets I have seen just since last night … Continue reading Something to think about

20 Years Later…

In honor of the 20th anniversary of 9/11, I really wanted to write something profound... something meaningful. Then I thought to myself, what could one ever write to give it enough justice? Could I ever write anything "good enough"? Probably not, but I damn well wanted to try. Then just as I sat down with … Continue reading 20 Years Later…

This is solely my opinion and experience with Invisalign since I just finished my treatment plan. At the end … Continue reading My Invisalign Experience

It Happened.

Outside the MET August 2020 This past weekend while looking through the “on this day” feature on Instagram, a photo came up that gave me goosebumps. It was a picture of a completely empty shelf in Whole Foods that I had posted in my stories on March 5, 2020. It was a seemingly typical Thursday … Continue reading It Happened.

Veganuary: One Year Later

I am sitting here trying to think about the first time I ever heard the word “vegan”. I honestly have no idea, but all of the usual stereotypes around veganism definitely used to cross my mind. “Ugh, the only thing vegans can eat is salad.” “Eww tofu is gross…” (Even though I couldn’t tell you … Continue reading Veganuary: One Year Later

Pandemic Fatigue

So this week I had an entirely different blog post planned reflecting on Veganuary. I have a lot to say on the topic but for the life of me I just haven’t been able to formulate coherent sentences about it every morning I sat down to write this week. This morning I had such a … Continue reading Pandemic Fatigue

21 for 2021

Now being halfway through January, this is probably around the time that people start ditching whatever resolutions they’ve made for themselves. A quick Google search will reveal that a staggering 80% of new year resolutions are abandoned by February… and only 8% are actually successful by the end of the year. Why do we do … Continue reading 21 for 2021
