How do you like to celebrate your birthday? I am not one of those people who LOVE all the attention nor do I LOVE celebrating my birthday, but creating fun events that involve sweating it out with some of my favorite fit friends and bringing community together IS something that I LOVE. So when I […]
Camping we will go! A first timers story
I went camping and SURVIVED! I just got back from a 2-night camping trip in Santa Barbara at Los Padres National Forest. Now, if you know me or even if you don’t, I would describe myself as fairly athletic but being outdoorsy, especially for camping, is completely out of my realm of comfort. For example, […]
Living the Vital [ Proteins ] life!
I took a trip to Chicago in the name of Vital Proteins and left with so much more…… At the end of September, Vital Proteins sent all of their ambassadors to Chicago for a fitness summit, and I was lucky enough to be one of them. But first, let me give you a little […]
Meeting Drake…..
When was the last time you went on a field trip to a farm? Kindergarten? Fifth grade? Last fall (duh, pumpkin picking!)? I was lucky enough to be one of 25 people that sweetgreen (my favorite salad/bowl place) brought to the goat farm where they source their goat cheese. As you may or may not […]
Weekend Round Up- Event Spotlights
So spring has finally sprung and we’re about to get some more rain here in suny California, BUT I won’t let this “rain on the parade” that I had this past weekend. This weekend was an eventful, sweaty one, but that’s how I like it. I traveled all around LA (mainly due to avoiding LA […]
Whole[30] lot of fun
It seems like a bunch of my friends have hopped on the Whole 30 train and I’m not complaining. I really enjoy the Whole 30. I like that it cleanses your body. You know what you are feeding and nourishing it with and how you are reacting to the nutrients that you are providing it. […]
Making Moves
So last post I talked about facing your fears. Stepping out of your comfort zone in order to push your limits, surprise yourself and continue to create and enable the metamorphosis process of your life. Last month I continued to do so. I am still new to blogging, but was given the opportunity to attend IDEA’s Blogfest in Los Angeles […]
Letting go of fear
Wow, a long hiatus, but I’m back! I’ve been stepping out of my comfort zone and with triathlon season (first one on Sunday) around the corner I’m trying to let go of fear. Fear of failure, fear of not being my best self, fear of not achieving my goals (mentally, physically, emotionally), fear of not […]
Hitting the ‘reset’ button
Happy March! If you’re anything like me, you’ve gotten back into the swing of things since the holidays and are back in full force. The past two weekends I’ve participated in some pretty amazing FREE workout events, yes FREE (those are my favorite kind). I must say that it all started when I caught the […]
Getting Crafty
Making time for you. With all the hustle and bustle of life and getting your workouts in, it’s hard to remember to take time for yourself. This past week, for me, was especially busy at work and I am currently on a gym hiatus due to an injury. Having all of the stress from my job and […]
