I WOULD GLADLY LIVE IN HOI AN AGAIN. It’s the perfect little city for vacation goers or travelers. You’ve got the beach (which was way nicer than I expected), surrounding mountains, neighboring city – Danang, and the adorable old town of Hoi An.

IF YOU’RE HUMAN, YOU’VE EXPERIENCED A SLUMP. I have wanted to speak on this topic for a long time.

SAPA IS A QUAINT MOUNTAIN TOWN IN THE NORTHERN REGION OF VIETNAM. Sapa is like a little German or Austrian Mountain town but without the class and paved roads. Yet, still very charming. It surpassed my expectations for sure. There are endless activities and ways to spend your time in Sapa. But this post is […]

DO NOT COACH ONLINE BEFORE HAVING COACHED IN PERSON. In the world of online health and fitness, it is becoming more and more common for people to want to be online coaches straight out of the gate instead of coaching in person first. I may even do another episode on that issue all together and […]

HANOI, VIETNAM IS A BIG CITY THAT FEELS LIKE HOME. When I say Hanoi, Vietnam is big, I mean it’s MASSIVE. But it doesn’t feel like it. Yes, you feel like you’re in a city, but it is separated into neighborhoods. And the central lake makes it feel less…crowded. We had 48 hours in Hanoi […]
