Rest
I didn’t mention this in a post, but a few weeks ago, I ended up in the ER due to having severe chest pain. They ran a ton of tests to see if it was a heart issue or a blood clot. Everything was perfect. A few days later, I followed up with my primary…

Meal Plan for 9/1-9/7
It has been a LONG TIME since I’ve shared our meal plans. Honestly, meal planning is a bit complicated now since I work in the kitchen. My schedule is kind of all over the place, and we eat some meals in the dining hall. I’m trying to eat much healthier now, so even when I…

What is my motive?
Anyone who knows me knows that I tend to overthink the majority of the time. After my last post about allowing myself to “just be,” I have been working hard at doing that. I have had a week and a half of processing that, what it means for me, and how to live that out…
