Why Running Isn’t Everything

I have talked about this before. If you know me, it is likely we have had this conversation before. It was the reason I started the Be Brave. Be Strong. Be You. Movement, and I intend on keeping it going, showing every single person I possibly can that YOU, yes you, have something to offer…

Honeymoon: Sydney

FIRSTLY, I would like to wish a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the love of my life who turns 36 today! What an appropriate time to reflect back on our honeymoon together, a few of many more memories we will share together.   Feels strange writing this now. I am sitting on the plane on my way…

Andrew Colley

elite runner
A few months ago, I told you about spending a week at Zap Fitness. I had such a wonderful time, and I loved getting to know the athletes that lived there. One person I clicked particularly well with had beautiful, blonde, flowing locks. No, not Sarah, but Andrew Colley.  I had never heard of Colley before…

Honey- Sautéed Brussel Sprouts and Carrots

You loved Sarah the first few times I had her post (read her elite takeover story, Gardening– trust me, its SO good!), so I thought she had to be there for another Meatless Monday.

Off on our Honeymoon! Our Round the World Trip!

australia, honeymoon
I can barely believe this day is here. It seemed like a few weeks ago Steve and I were wedding planning talking about a honeymoon destination, and then it seemed like it was just yesterday we clicked the purchase button and paid for the flights. Now we are here. Honeymoon time, and we are both…

Why I Have Been Seeing a Therapist

insomnia, sleep, therapy
I am honest. You know that. I know that. I am proud to say that honesty and transparency came from my grandma, or nanny as I used to call her. Nanny Muir was the toughest person I knew, and she always told you the truth. Like that time she told me my legs were chubby…

Creamy Tomato and Basil Soup

dinner, lunch, soup
Happy Monday! For Steve and I, it is HONEYMOON WEEK! How is that even possible!? We are SO excited about it, although frantically running around trying to get things ready. I have a fantastic lineup of guest posts for you coming in the month of December, but today I am giving you a little teaser.  By…
