I have long wanted to share a post about pelvic floor health – especially since it’s an issue most of us deal with after pregnancy and child birth. It’s also a subject few talk about – many women feel embarrassed or don’t know where to go for help/don't realize their symptoms aren't normal. Because I work in healthcare (in a non-patient care ...

Why I Love P.volve + Try 15 Days for Free!
I started doing P.volve last summer and it was one of those workouts I truly got addicted to. It’s low impact, focuses on the results I want to achieve (long and lean muscles) and was so easy to do at home via their streaming program. I wrote a full review of the program, here.

What is Intermittent Fasting + Why it Works for Me
When I started on my journey towards eating more healthfully this year, something I started to practice without much thought is to stop eating after dinner and then not eat again until I got to work in the morning.
