This year, by the generosity of my friends, I was able to attend the MN Bloggers Conference. I’ve been writing on a blog for about 3 years and I haven’t even heard of this conference (insert embarrassed emoji). The problem is I haven’t networked much. I was beyond excited to attend the conference just for […]

Tracks
I can’t remember the first time I put a penny on a set of train tracks, waited for a train to run it over and then went back to find it. I don’t remember where we were or how old I was but I know my dad is the one that took me. Every time we go up […]
Unthink
I pride myself on thinking outside of the box. I’ve actually won quite a few contests by thinking just a tad different then everyone else. I like it and it’s fun! A few weeks ago I went to Dallas for a work conference. Going in I thought that it would be full of suits and […]
Goal begins with GO
“A goal without a plan is just a wish” someone said once. Let’s turn those wishes into actions! I challenge you to come up with 5 goals and use the summer season to complete them. They do not have to be super challenging but they do have to be something that makes you want to […]
Boys and Body Issues
I used to date this guy with some pretty MAJOR body issues. Like, I’ve slept with him a few times and haven’t ever seen him naked. Not. Even. Once. He was the skater type. Even on the hottest days he wore jeans, a hoodie skater shoes and a baseball cap. SOMETIMES I’d see him in […]

When I was fourteen my parents went on their first vacation without us kids and out of the country. They packed their bags and headed to Mexico for what felt like an eternity. […]
The Sisterhood of the Fierce Traveling Journal – 2015 Style
You may know that I am a big advocate for Fierce Forward and also an ambassador. Since the beginning of my Fierce Forward journey I heard a bunch of women from the “She-Pack” (my sisters) talk about this traveling journal they did. I had to wait six months to be apart of the traveling journal […]

It’s a 26 day challenge to loving yourself FIERCELY! After all, you are the person you’ll spend the rest of your life with. […]
Neighbors
Two years ago $#!t when down in the neighborhood. When I say $#!t went down, I mean it exploded. It was kind of like a constipated infant that gets a little bit of apple juice to help things along; when the rumbling starts watch out because it goes up the back, in the hair, literally […]
