I’ve been learning a LOT about the feminine cycle over the past four years, and can I say…I just LOVE science! Sometimes I think I’m not made to understand science (the whole “you’re an artist so you can’t be math or science smart” lie), but I so appreciate learning about the world around us because …
I get it! Instagram often makes me feel ill. Whether it’s from the onslaught of bad news, over-edited and perfect photos, or just false self-love doctrine, Instagram is becoming harder and harder to stay on. (You’re not the only one feeling this!) Here’s two things to do: 1. Ask yourself: What is the QUANTITY of …
I WILL be drinking a ton of coffee, you’d better believe that. However, here’s the two things you need to know: I will NOT be drinking alcohol either on my 21st birthday or any other day following it. I thoroughly believe you can be a Christian and drink alcohol. I mean, you can be a …
Hey there, beloved! How’s your quarantine going? I wanted to chat about loneliness today. I’m an introvert, yet—yes—quarantine still gets me in a funk sometimes.

It can be really deflating to watch another person across the kitchen table diving into a sizzling cheese pizza. You sit there, eyes glazing over your own salad topped with—surprise—chicken, five strawberries, and a bit of olive oil (You checked your favorite dressing, only to realize it contains milk . . . why???

This post is kind of ironic. It’s been swirling around in my head for a while. I was going to write this epic post about my own journey through health problems; the battle I had when I discovered I needed to go on a gluten-free (carb-free, yummy-free, party-free) diet.

I didn’t understand it. Almost every day now, at some point I had this feeling of not being able to breathe. It was like there was a very chubby gopher sitting on my chest. At one point, these feelings grew worse and worse until one day, in the middle of a service, I thought the …
It wasn’t until I was outside that I realized it. It wasn’t until I looked up and realized I’d forgotten what color of blue the sky was: I hadn’t been outside for more than ten minutes in . . . well, forever. Perhaps that was part of my sickness. Hours & days spent indoors after …
