A return to being fit I haven’t always been fit. In fact, I’d say about half my life thus far has been evenly split between ‘likes barbells but obviously likes tacos’ and ‘just obviously likes tacos’. 🌮 I was a soft teenager, very un-sporty. Couldn’t run for a minute without…
Last night I had the pleasure of attending a Women's Business Network event with a group of phenomenal women. We spoke about building each other up, which is so important, especially considering the events happening in our world. We wrote letters to friends with sincere love in our hearts, and…
