ME!! MYSELF!! I'm the problem it's me!! LOL In the early stages of dating my partner, our arguments would escalate SUPER quickly. Small conflicts blew up. Looking back now - while we were definitely still learning how to communicate as a couple, I definitely caused a lot of our conflict!

I know some people are going to come for me… but as a holistic wellness coach, I’m not into 75 hard (or any trend that promotes extreme behavior over sustainable lifestyle). It’s not that I have an issue with eating a clean diet or sobriety or staying really active. What I don’t like is that I s

Happy Friday! One thing I won’t miss about 75 hard is the Friday night workouts 😩 My bf and I are long distance so we take advantage of Fridays by saving our gym workout for the afternoon so we can do it together but wow has it been a force EVERY TIME. 🤣 On the upside only 10 more days to go!!
