If you haven't been to this incredibly unique and charming town, you've gotta go, you will love it! (and I'm not just saying that because I'm German and I love the culture 😉 ) This super cute little town is SO much like being in Southern Germany. I was curious how this town that's in the middle of no where came to be  --so every shop that we went to I asked the people working […]

High-functioning anxiety looks like… Achievement. Busyness. Perfectionism. When it sneaks out, it transforms into nervous habits. Nail biting. Foot tapping. Running my fingers through my hair. If you look close enough, you can see it in unanswered text messages. Flakiness. Nervous laughter. The panic that flashes through my eyes when a plan changes. When anything changes. High-functioning anxiety feels like… A snake slithering up my back, clamping its jaws shut where my shoulders meet my […]

By Steven Pressfield   What exactly is self-loathing? It appears almost always as that nasty, brutal voice in our heads. “You’re a loser, you’re a bum, a worthless waste of oxygen. Look at you. Do you imagine that someone like you could produce something original, something of quality, something that anyone else would care about?

We are social creatures that NEED TO HAVE social connections! But over the past […]

I knew that I wanted a change in life but was extremely unsure about every aspect of my life. I felt anxious about the future, was constantly re-visiting the past, couldn't make a decision, and was struggling with my self-worth. I also felt very depressed. I had tried seeing […]

Sunday Funday kayaking along the Indian Arm with my 2 best friends! <3 It's a breathtaking place to be, surrounded by majestic mountains, with so many secluded beaches and islands. Great picnic spots, and beautiful trails to walk along. A perfect for a romantic day trip with your sweetie (or anyone, really!)  😀 Here's a couple of videos of our trip: Tweet Share this:Facebook

Throughout the history of the world, there have been leaders and followers. Viewed through the lens of history, some of these leaders have been truly awful, yet they still managed to accrue followers. Have you ever stopped to examine this phenomenon and wonder why that's true? Why even the worst of leaders seem to always gather around them a group of followers? Before you write it off to idiocy on the part of the followers, […]

Why is it bad to procrastinate? Put simply --it really impacts our motivation and gives us permission to NOT take action. To put this in perspective then, at some point in our life, everyone indulges in procrastination a little bit. I’m guilty of it too once in a while! The difference is that some people have this problem for long periods of time, and for other people, this problem arises due to particular challenges and/or […]
