I'm an adventurous introvert from Vancouver, Washington who lives on sleep + "me time." I'm a lover of lifting weights, dinosaurs, real talk and traveling with my husband. I am here to help you move better, lift more, bust the myths of the fitness industry, and inspire you to love the process.
This is going to be long I am sure because real life episodes always are. They’re a reflection of sorts for me, and I am long winded. So, bare with me on this pregnancy episode. In full transparency, this comes out a month after my due date but was batched recorded at least one month […]
Everyone’s prenatal, natal, and postnatal experiences are individual. We all have expectations whether we realize it or not. With that, I figured I’d round up in one spot what I found helpful from first to second to third trimester for any new mamas out there. Or even second or third time mamas looking to make […]
If you know anything about me, know that I am quite possibly the biggest fan of reflection. I love a process, whether my own or someone else’s. So no matter where you came to find me from, we’re pulling back the curtain of this journey starting nearly a decade ago. Here’s the quick and dirty […]
This podcast episode is the epitome of nuance – of several different emotions and experiences coexisting at the same time. So I want to make clear that if you skip any part of this or take any single part of it as the conclusion of my experience or this episode, you are mistaken and you’re […]
Sustainability + discount for you. Here’s zee story: Vooray reached out to me months ago. Though I loved the versatile clean style of their bags, I asked about a more sustainable/organic option.

It’s 8:25pm on a Sunday. I’m in the tub, writing per usual. After busting out six other instagram captions, this one makes me pause. I think to myself, “I don’t really waste time. Never have.” Or I don’t feel like I waste my time. Maybe from the outside someone would say I do waste time. […]
I am sure hiring an interior designer is grand. I’m also fairly certain it’s very expensive and a luxury most people cannot afford or are not willing to pay for. I am, we are, “most people.” So I knew the design would be in our hands… But also, we care about our dream home and […]
If you ever get the chance to design your dream home, you’re among the few (and the overwhelmed). The things you learn when designing your dream home can only be learned when designing your dream home. Before we dive in, know that I am speaking from anecdotal experience and our experience may differ completely from […]
Being self employed has its perks. It also has its fair share of challenges. I’d heard from colleagues in the world of online health and fitness that buying and/or building a home was a TASK when it came to securing their loan. Before we begin I have to make clear that this is not financial […]
Buying land and building a home was always in our plans (God willing). We weren’t done traveling the world in 2020. But the rona sent us home early – April 21, 2020. Once our jet lag wore off, it became clear that the “unknown” in the realm of international travel was indefinite. Thus, the plans […]
