Ideas I want to share about my life outside of health and fitness. However, I love making connections among ideas I come across so there will probably be similar themes which relate back to healthy/fitness which will be obvious within my posts. Life is all about balance though. Although I spend a large amount of time invested in the health and fitness lifestyle, I do have other interests. Some of my hobbies include reading, listening to podcasts, listening to music, anything which allows creative expression, eventually I would like to try gardening, I love giving back to others in my community, and much more.

Embrace the Pain
Something I wrote a couple weeks back. Have had several conversations with others in the past couple weeks where this topic is a recurring theme, so I figured I would share it. Maybe it will resonate with you. 😊 Love is acceptance. Of self, and […]
Synergy
We are all reliant on one another. Little success is found in selfish acts. And this is something one must realize as they grow. There is power in being connected and working in synergy. What you lack is something you can improve upon. Often times, […]
You are King (or Queen)
Destiny. To realize one’s destiny is a person’s only obligation. By following what you truly love, you feel alive. Anything outside of this, makes you feel lifeless. An undesired state of suffering. Live life from the inside out, not trying to put on a show […]
