As some of you readers might know I posted a blog about 4 months ago talking about the very personal (for me at least) subject of weight loss and how I had hit a rock bottom of sorts. I touched on my efforts with my health here and there in the beginning but haven’t posted […]
Hey guys! It is with great privilege that I introduce to you this week’s guest blogger: Arika Kaosa. I think that what she has to say needs to be heard by so many people out there, myself included! Her story couldn’t have came at a better time for me and I hope you will find […]
Before I share this week’s guest blog post I feel the need to talk about the girl behind the article. I first met Kellie in High School where I saw her around but we didn’t talk much at first. We were in a Creative Writing class together when she wore a Hanson shirt to school […]
Since I’ve started this new path down trying-to-get-healthy lane I’ve learned several things and felt like some of them were worth sharing. Maybe someone out there might need to hear this stuff too.

Yes, Journey. The “Don’t Stop Believin’” kind and the traveling for a purpose kind. The particular path that I am talking about is my never-ending and steady journey to become a healthier person. To say that it’s been a struggle for me is an understatement and I hesitate to even write about it because it is so very […]
So, I finally did it! Sort of. I actually figured out how to use Instagram. I know. I know. Impressive, right? (HA!) I mean, I knew that it was for showcasing pictures and everything…but up until this week I unknowingly had the blog account set to private, which does not help me out at all. […]
