23 for 2023

Okay, okay so... this post is a tad late this year (better late than never, right?). This time last year I was in a major funk. I was just so utterly exhausted from the prior two years of the pandemic that I admittedly was struggling to have high hopes for 2022. Then out of nowhere … Continue reading 23 for 2023

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

My Invisalign Experience

Okay, I am not sure why it took me so long to coherently get my thoughts into words on this one, but here it is. Please note: I am not a dental professional of any sort. 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.

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

Vegan for 31 Days: My Experience with Veganuary

It's already February! Now that the holiday madness and New Year buzz have worn off, it's time to evaluate how I did with my biggest goal in 2020: Veganuary. I don't want to assume anything here, so just in case anyone reading isn't sure, the term vegan means not consuming any animal products.  This goes … Continue reading Vegan for 31 Days: My Experience with Veganuary

My Recent Life Hacks

As I was on my way home from work yesterday, I started thinking about what I have been doing differently that has made a difference in my vibe this week after returning from my trip. This struck me because I think this is hack number one: that I didn't obsessively try to plan and control … Continue reading My Recent Life Hacks

So About March…

How is it already a week into March?! February lasted for about a blink and here we are. The days are thankfully getting longer and now my "baby" brother is officially 25. (Side note- how is 1994 25 years ago?!)  While time has been seemingly flying, March is still my least favorite month.  Stay with … Continue reading So About March…

My Experience With Cupping

So it has been a full week since my first cupping therapy session.  I have gotten a lot of questions so I figured I would do a little run down of my experience (I did a post on my Instagram page last week if you want to take a peak- @nikkiash86). It is important for … Continue reading My Experience With Cupping
