From Push to Pause: Resting in the Berkshires
In my last post, I talked about how gaslighting myself helped me achieve my goal of summiting Chimborazo. It’s a strategy that works—for a little while, at least. But I’ve come to realize that this approach has an expiration date. Long-lasting strength isn’t about ignoring your body’s signals or convincing yourself you aren’t tired. It’s…

Just Another New Year’s Post
It has been a 2ish months since my last post. I’ve been adventuring, but I have been lacking on time and not having any significant revelations, so hence my lack of writing. However, it feels just wrong to have a blog or social media in general without making the mandatory new year’s post. 1 Year…

Feel It All
Remember how last week I did a post about feeling ALL the feels?! Well, this wasn’t planned, but the universe decided to make me blog more on it! Run The Bird To kick off this story, I go to the same run club every Wednesday. Basically, we run around Wash Park and then have a…

Inside Out 2
I knew I would resonate with this movie before I even went to see it. Inside Out 1 left me bawling in the movie theater. Inside Out 2 was the same. Pixar nailed it, and now I want to talk about it. To keep the synopsis brief… In the beginning, Riley (our main character) is…

Diagnosis

The show is based off of Dr. Lisa Sanders NY Times column, in which she utilizes crowdsourcing to help people with complex/confusing medical cases to find a diagnosis. The hope with crowdsourcing someone’s story is that someone else in the whole world can…

Everything is Temporary
How are we doing? How am I doing? I can’t speak for everyone in my family, but my discomfort is really strong, and my emotions are unpredictable. One second, I can be dancing and laughing at butt jokes. The next second, I am staring into the fridge until the door alarm goes off, crippled with…

Eat Pray Love
When I started this journey, I had a little bit of the movie “Eat, Pray, Love” in mind. It’s the movie where Julia Roberts heals herself through travel, learning how to eat again in Italy, the power of prayer in India, and falling in love with a Brazilian man in Bali. I definitely didn’t do…

Trusting My Gut
A lot has happened in the past 24 hours where even though I didn’t go to Uganda for the reasons below, I think God was guiding me home, and I am grateful to be in Florida with family right now. So what other reasons are there that I am not in Uganda? What am I…
