The older we get, the more impact we experience from small changes to our routine. I share products and methods that help me fall and stay asleep, deal with perimenopause symptoms, alleviate back pain, give me energy, let me experience mindfulness, relaxation, and peace while still having an active life.
This is a scary time for all of us. If your job allows, please stay home. That means home, home. Not going to the store unless absolutely necessary, not having small gatherings with friends, just being on your property with the people who live with you, if applicable. If you can, try to go outside… Continue Reading Staying Strong
I don’t know about you, but a lot of times when I see websites and influencers promoting what they consider athleisure, it isn’t terribly… realistic for real life.

We planned on making all meals at the house, spending a lot of time reading, playing board games, napping, cooking, and snuggling as families on the couches watching movies and watching the ball drop at… Continue Reading Soma Loungewear for a Cozy New Year
They say your brain remembers memories better when you’re not taking a photo, but I think standing behind the camera helped to fuse this image into my brain. Karl, blue bandana tied at his neck, sitting in a chair with his foot up, a glass of bourbon in his hand, enjoying the view from our… Continue Reading Festing Like a Boss
Last year I deleted my Nordstrom card from my online account. I cut up the card. And by the end of the year, I paid off the entire balance. Nordstrom was my weakness, they had my size, they shipped quickly. I’d get a box, pour a glass of wine, try on, take my time with… Continue Reading I Said I Wouldn’t Do It…
One of the most popular questions I am asked on Instagram is where I buy my activewear. And I haven’t written a post about it because my answer is not exciting. I am 5’3” which has me between regular and petite sizing, and I wear a 14 in pants, 12 in some jeans. This makes… Continue Reading Where I Buy Activewear
I have written many times before on what to wear to a music festival. In my 20s and early 30s, I loved music festivals and attended over a dozen. I had my style down pat and had very definite opinions on what to wear. A decade later I attended my first music festival in a… Continue Reading What to Wear to a Music Festival
