in Goals
I like the format that I have been using to set up my goals in the past so will continue to use it going forward, with the exception of changing “Blog” to “Blog/Branding”. Here we go! Blog/Branding: Since I became self-hosted, there have been a lot of things that I wanted to do with my […]
When I set up my goals for September, I focused on five main categories: blog, food, lifting, cardio, and other. And this month, it was huge struggles all across the board, primarily stemming from my whole food issue (well, Whole30 issue).

Stop the presses. I ate asparagus today. I know, no big deal, right? But for me, every new food encountered is newsworthy! Since my Whole30 journey began, I’ve branched out and have eaten tilapia, zucchini, kale (fail, but at least I tried), elk burgers, tuna steaks (tonight), and drank bone broth, and of course, indulged in […]
Today begins the first installment of my “Lady Lifters Spotlight!” (I don’t have a fancy icon to go along with it, so if anyone is interested in creating something, I’m all for ideas!) Each week, I want to share with you a fellow lady lifter to encourage, inspire, and motivate! Today’s spotlight is on Jill […]
This stage of the Whole30 is supposed to start being all sunshine and rainbows.. and honestly, as much as I’ve love to tell you otherwise, it’s not quite there yet. The past couple days, I have just felt “off.” My belly is not happy about something and since I’ve eliminated all of the supposed gut […]
