Happy almost New Year party people!!! While resolutions are fun and invigorating to get behind a new habit, perhaps this year think about the things that aren’t so visible on the outside but on the inside. Often that’s where the true life happiness secrets lie. BE KIND TO YOURSELF. It sounds so simple but we are the worst at it. Cut the negativity and love yourself. Anytime you begin to have a bad thought, replace it with…
We are all primed to search for the easiest way possible in life. That is just our nature and why I leave crumbs all over the house because plates and napkins are just TOO MUCH DAMN IT!!! You’ve never heard the saying however, “easy work pays off”. NOPE. So I have a new challenge for all of you. CHOOSE THE HARD EVERYTIME. Everything worth becoming and doing is hard. So embrace the chaos, confront your fears, face the obstacles, and…
Remember Mary Poppins? What a complete TERROR. That movie should have been rated R for all of the graphic horror it showed. It’s true don’t question this. The only redeeming part is the dancing penguins. Those guys are a class act. Fo real guys, anyone else exhausted from the pursuit of perfection? How often do you read an article about how to get the perfect hair, to choose the perfect houseplant, to plan the perfect dinner party….when does this hamster…
Team, circle up and take a knee. The ingredients in your products MATTER. Not only do toxins slow down your awesomeness but if you are spending money on a new treat for yourself, you may be washing your face AND washing your money down the drain at the same time. Let me explain… In case you were sleeping in Biology class, your skin is your largest organ. Most anything you soap up with, or slather on your skin enters into…
We are all guilty of it. The mind demons of comparison and unworthiness. FUCK THOSE GUYS! Seriously, the world has so much negativity these days why add more to your stress and insecurities? I’ll just out the elephant in the room, there is a major asshole here and the asshole is YOU!!!! Sorry not sorry. Words have power and we all need to take a moment to love on ourselves and cut the mental crap. It’s exhausting, no? I challenge…
Ah cold season, you devil witch. When will we ever be safe? Now I know this may come across as another list of obvious things to do when you are fighting a cold, but let’s be REALLY HONEST with ourselves. I rarely get sick, but when I do I turn into a worthless pile of goo. All of the good eating and health habits? Gone. It’s all cheesy pasta, thai food, and goldfish for me and often times I’m too…
Anyone else suffering from post-election hangover? I feel like New York City has truly turned into a ghost-zombie wonderland. Without getting angry or political, I wanted to challenge everyone out there to be an EXTRA AWESOME GOOD PERSON. Many of us are confused, elated, indifferent, hurt, amused, scared, and downright pissed off and those emotions should be felt for healing to begin. Personally, I’m intellectually and emotionally tired of all the fighting. This is a plea for both sides to…
Huzzah! Finally we can be free and live our lives!! Repeat….LIVE. OUR. LIVES. Because we are alive assholes and we constantly forget the beauty of that statement while we…wait OMG someone just posted new pics of themselves on their vacation…uhhhh they are always travelling do they not work?!?!? Why are they always laughing at salads in their photos?!?!? What’s so funny about salad?!?!? (See what I did there). We constantly fall into the rabbit hole of comparisons and people pleasing….
I have news for you guys, we are ALL doing too much and are missing what’s going on around us. How often do you switch from screen to screen on your iPhone and completely forget the original thing that you picked up your iPhone to do? That’s not multitasking, that is losing your mind slowly and doing tasks POORLY. (Just this moment I started writing this article and my phone buzzed…there’s a group chat about plans to travel to a…
Disappointment, it’s where all your hopes, wishes, and expectations go to complete shit. We feel anger, hurt, and sadness, and if you’re anything like me, you turn into a pile of goo like Alex Mack and WALLOW!! And DWELL! And have fake fights in your head with the people you are mad at in which they say something shallow and stupid and you come at them with firm but goddamn eloquent comebacks!!! And then you convince yourself that life is…
