Once upon a time in my little corner of the internet, I used to participate in #TransformationTuesday. It usually involved a before-and-after photo, meant to show how my body had changed and talk about the journey from then to now. These days, I don't care too much about the physical changes. Bodies change. Mine has… Continue reading Transformation, But Not the Kind You Used to See on Tuesdays
Four Races Later… A Recap!
The last time I wrote a race recap was in February. Since then, spring flew by and somehow we’re almost halfway through summer. Or at least it feels like we are because it’s 4th of July weekend! Life has been a little busy, but I still managed to run a race in March, April, May… Continue reading Four Races Later… A Recap!
Where I’m At Right Now
You may have noticed that I haven't posted much lately. In fact, when I got ready to write this post, I looked back on my Instagram and saw that my last post was March 30th. That also happens to be the last time I went for a run. Since then, I haven't been moving much… Continue reading Where I’m At Right Now
Finding Nutrition Advice That’s Actually Backed by Science
With so much conflicting nutrition advice online, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Registered dietitians help cut through the noise by turning complex nutrition science into practical guidance that works for your real life.
Discovering the Power of Nutrition in My Life
Nutrition powers more than just workouts. It fuels our focus at work, supports our mental health, and helps us show up for the people and activities that matter most. In honor of National Nutrition Month®, I’m reflecting on how nutrition powers my everyday life — from my morning routine to my work as a dietitian to my runs and beyond.
Life is Lifing…
Life has been lifing since my last post: an unexpected leadership change at work, my dad’s knee surgery, zero logged miles… and somehow a 50K entered the group chat. This season has been less about pushing and more about pausing — and maybe, just maybe, building again.
Mind Matters: My ADHD Medication Journey (So Far…)
I spent years wondering if my struggles “counted” and whether an ADHD diagnosis would change anything at all. What followed wasn’t a dramatic transformation, but a quieter, more complicated journey—one shaped by validation, high expectations, frustration, and small changes I almost missed. This post is an honest look at my path to an ADHD diagnosis, medication trials, and what I’m learning along the way.
The Training Journal: Volume 2025, Issue 12
I started December with a big goal, a training plan, and the belief that this time it would be different. Spoiler alert: winter, burnout, and real life had other plans. In The Training Journal: Volume 2025, Issue 12, I break down my December training and the lessons that mattered more than the miles.
New Year, Same Me: Planting Seeds in Winter Instead of Burning Out by February
Every January, I sit down with big goals and even bigger optimism. This year, I’m doing something different. Instead of “new year, new me, go hard immediately,” I’m choosing to slow down, reflect, and set intentions that actually fit my life. Inspired by winter’s natural rhythm, lessons from burnout, and what I’ve learned about my brain and body, this post explores why rest isn’t failure - and how flexibility, connection, and curiosity are shaping my approach to 2026.
Looking Back on 2025, A Year of Duality
2025 wasn’t just a list of events - it was a year of duality. Joy and challenge. Confidence and doubt. Structure and burnout. Rediscovering parts of myself while learning entirely new things. This reflection looks back on a full, complicated year and the lessons that came with it.
Mind Matters: Let’s Talk About Grief
When you mention grief, most people think of the kind that comes with death. It also shows up in friendships that fade and identities we've left behind. Grief doesn't disappear when the holidays show up. Instead, we get to awkwardly juggle them with joy and celebration. You'll be driving around looking at Christmas lights, eating… Continue reading Mind Matters: Let’s Talk About Grief

From Onyx Night to Opalite
My first listen to The Life of a Showgirl was… not ideal. I was driving home with friends from a really loud concert - my hearing was shot, my attention span was nonexistent, and honestly, I probably shouldn’t have trusted myself with new Taylor in that state. Lesson learned: no more first listens unless my… Continue reading From Onyx Night to Opalite
A Tale of Two Long Runs
It’s no secret that I’ve been burned out from running (all you have to do is read my blog to know that). The fact that I didn't do any long runs for the first two weeks of September further confirmed the burnout. I used to enjoy getting together with my friends or my husband to… Continue reading A Tale of Two Long Runs
Same Old Story (But With New Words)
Here we go again. I haven't written a blog since July 17th. Cue me saying, “I really want to write more.” And I do. Really. Pinky promise this time. My husband is always amazed at my memory. He’ll ask, “How do you remember when this happened? Or which concerts you’ve been to? Or the exact… Continue reading Same Old Story (But With New Words)
