I was asked to be an ambassador for Pineapple Clothing on Instagram. Being a huge nerd, I did my due diligence. I researched how to tell if they're reputable...

When Going to The Gym Becomes Unhealthy.
I was happiest at the gym but I was eating less and doing more there. I was averaging 4 hours a day of the hardest exercises I could find. Baptism by sweat.

How I Stay Motivated To Workout.
What motivates me to workout is not what you think. Yeah, I want more energy and I want to look good in clothing…but those two things don’t keep me motivated long-term. They should. But they don’t. If I rely on that, well, I find myself on the couch, eating gluten-free…

Exploring Gut Health
I will never take my health for granted again. I used to eat whatever I wanted, at any time of day, without a second thought. Now, I have a severe gluten-intolerance and I will never take my health for granted again. A couple of years ago, on my husband’s birthday,…

Breaking Through Workout Boredom
I used to be under the impression that when you found a workout you liked, that got results, you stuck with it. Maybe, once you felt up to it, you added in some other activities on the side; spin class, hiking, rock climbing or soccer. Your daily grind would remain…
