Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. Believe it or not, we’re at the end of 2017. So today, I thought I’d share a reflection on my experience of 2017, and also how I’m preparing for the New Year. I should warn you: I’m a big lover of New Year’s resolutions. I make them every year, and I’ve

Cranberry Breakfast Cake {paleo}
The holidays are fast approaching–and there’s still so much to do. Gifts to wrap, desserts to bake, friends to see. But also important: rest to be had. The holidays can feel overwhelming: a never-ending to-do list that leaves you feeling drained, depleted. The busy-ness of it all has me pulling inward, into my self. I

Happy Sunday! This weekend could not have come sooner: all I’ve wanted all week is to relax and find some quiet. How is it already almost over? I had great plans of sleeping in all weekend, but alas, yesterday I got up around 6am (courtesy of the few glasses of red wine Allie and I

Why You Should See A Therapist In Your 20s

I am a big believer in self-care. I think nourishing your body, your mind, your spirit is essential to moving through life with compassion, with understanding, with purpose.

Maple Pecan Baked Apples + Some Self-Reflection
Happy Sunday, lovely humans. It is a dreary day as I report to you from my couch, in my pajamas, with a hot cup of coffee in my hand, and a thick blanket over my lap. The kind of day where you don’t do anything except light candles, play with your pets, and watch Halloween

Lamb, Squash + Chickpea Chili
Good morning! Before we dive in to today’s post, can I just talk about my love for Hayley Kiyoko? I’m currently obsessing about her–her music is great. So if you haven’t checked her out, you can listen to her here. I am really digging this song in particular. I mean aside from the fact that
