I used to loath V-Day. It felt like a reminder of what I didn’t have. But there’s only so much sulking and complaining one can do. So in recent years, I’ve taken it upon myself to be more intentional about enjoying the holiday for what it is: LOVE. And that can be love…
If there’s one thing I enjoy, it’s routine. I like knowing when things are going to happen and how they will happen. Obviously this is not always the case for every single day and I have learned to be ok with the variables that life tends to throw, but one thing that I have tried to…

Consistently working out has never been something that I could see myself doing long term because I always stopped after the 1 month mark. I would take “a break” and 6 months later, I was back to square 1. So at the beginning of 2019, I made a vow to take my workout regimen much more seriously and…
