  • Life is about the people you meet and the things you create with them, so go out and start creating

    Life is about the people you meet and the things you create with them, so go out and start creating

    This quote becomes more and more true as time goes on!  For those who know me and/or have been following my blog and journey know that I am one for setting and going after goals.  When I was younger, it was all about the goals.  With tennis, it was all about winning the games, becoming…

  • When you eat, appreciate every last bite

    When you eat, appreciate every last bite

    Ladies and gents! We are back dissecting my favorite quote and it is only appropriate for this topic to be “When you eat, appreciate every last bite”. In reflecting on some of the previous posts, each of these messages could change based on what I am going through and my mind set at the time…

  • Stop over analyzing, All emotions are beautiful

    Stop over analyzing, All emotions are beautiful

    This is some of the best advice, although I will admit I often times need to remind myself.  This became easier a few years ago when I learned how to go into my heart. Right after I finished my first bodybuilding competition, I was so concerned I would gain all the weight back, be right…

  • If you don’t have enough time, stop watching TV

    If you don’t have enough time, stop watching TV

    Don’t get me wrong, a night of Netflix binge watching can be exactly what one needs after a long week.  I interpret this as time is precious.  We all get the same 24 hours in a day and what you do with it is up to you.  If you spend two hours watching TV then…

  • If you don’t like your job, quit

    If you don’t like your job, quit

    I am a planner, no doubt about it.  I get something on my mind and I will set a plan to accomplish it.  I have been that way ever since I was a little girl.  As with everything, there are positives and negatives to this trait.  The positive is I set the goal, no matter…

  • If you don’t like something, change it

    If you don’t like something, change it

    How many times have we looked at something in our life and secretly (or not so secretly) said we want to change it. As humans, we are creatures of habit. It is so difficult to change, especially without a truly motivating reason. Below is part of an article I wrote for El Imparcial Newspaper earlier…

  • Do what you love and do it often

    Do what you love and do it often

    Seems simple enough, but for some of us, finding that thing we love—the reason we’re here—can feel like a lifelong journey. I’ve gone through so many phases, always trying new things in search of what truly lights me up. Along the way, I’ve discovered one constant: I love meeting people and hearing their stories. That…

    This is Your Life

    I am a sucker for quotes! Inspiring, motivating, sappy, lovey, Bible verses—you name it, I love them! If you were to scroll through my phone, you’d find pictures of my pup, Keeley, and, YOU GUESSED IT, quotes! One of my favorite quotes sits above my couch in my living room, and it’s from the Holstee…
