I have made an art out of focusing on the bad things in my life. I analyze, I explain them to myself, I write them down, I cry about them and they consume my thoughts more often than they should. I could have a day full of smiles and positive affirmations, yet it takes a…
Admittedly, I had already written a “Music Monday” post for the week but then Johnnyswim decided to release a new single and now I’ve replayed it 7 times in a row. There was no way I would begin the week without sharing “Bridges” with you all. I’m surprised this hasn’t turned into a Johnnyswim Fan…
Here it is, the first Music Monday blog post of 2019 and I’ll warn that I’m writing this after watching the Golden Globes so I’m a bit worked up. I mean, Bohemian Rhapsody for Best Drama? It’s as if the Hollywood Foreign Press didn’t watch any of the other contenders. I digress. The motivation of…
A few weeks ago I received a (really) late birthday present, it was The 52 Lists Project. It’s a book designed to inspire motivation for the new year. The first list is “list your goals and dreams for the year” so here I am, keeping the momentum of the new year going. So after one…

Dumplin’ is the latest hit out of the streaming service…

I came here to have a good time, and honestly, I am feeling so attacked right now. I…
When people ask me, “If you could listen to one album for the rest of your life, what album would that be?” I don’t hesitate when replying with “The Blessed Unrest by Sara Bareilles”. To me, The Blessed Unrest feels like a perfect collection of songs. It perfectly describes the kind of heartbreak that feels unbearable while reminding…
I have witnessed some legendary concerts in my time, but I always had a dream to see Alejandro Fernandez live. I have been trying to see him live for a few years now and thanks to my work wife, Alex, my dream finally became a reality and it was absolutely magical. This man exudes magic…
The protest anthem of the year has arrived just in time to play and replay before you cast your vote on November 6th. I have been a casual fan of Imagine Dragons for a few years now but after watching Dan Reynolds’s documentary, Believer on HBO I find myself gravitating toward their music more and more. If…
