A couple weeks ago, I heard the story of the talents, from the Bible. A story I’ve heard countless times in the past. But for some reason, this time…it hit me differently than it had before.

Pairings Retreat: From Dream to Reality
One day, shortly after the beginning of the new year, my friend Cristina from Your Personal Producer and I were on G-chat as we normally are, sharing our dreams for 2018.

#PrincessBootCamp – Moana Fitness Plan
I am a summer girl through and through. So Moana Week is right up my alley with the beachiness, the tropical food and the love of water.

#PrincessBootCamp – Cinderella Week Meal Plan
Starting is always the hardest part with it comes to a new fitness plan. At least for me it is.

When I clicked on the logo, I was taken to Google’s search page where all manner of MLK Jr. information lies. The first thing that comes up is NationalService.gov, a site thatContinue reading “Martin Luther King Jr. Day”

You know what really burns my butt? Romantic Comedies!!

Welcome to #TheSweatPack
I love fitness! I really do. I love the feel of straining dormant muscles (most especially dormant after the holidays.) I love taking classes at Soul Cycle and Title Boxing Club (where I am a member.) I love running by the lake in my neighborhood and lifting weights and jumping rope.
