Friday vibes: February 10

This week was one of those weeks where I took a step back and thought, “wow I love my job.” On Tuesday I got to take an “adult field trip” aka Destination Training for one of our clients, which basically meant I got to hop on a bus and visit a bunch of different tourist… Continue reading Friday vibes: February 10

Wednesday Words – Half-ass

“Don’t half-ass anything. Whatever you do, always use your full ass.”

Healthy recipes that don’t suck

Most of my childhood I was lanky. My mother bought me endless pairs of overalls because they were the only pants that would stay up. I finally filled out in high school and was able to maintain a size 4 simply by eating whatever I wanted (+organized sports). This pretty much continued through college until… Continue reading Healthy recipes that don’t suck

Friday vibes: February 3

I’ll be honest, I was not sad to see January go. Between my promotion, being down one team member, and ramping up my involvement in PRSA, I spent this past month in a constant state of hustle. I don’t see it slowing down anytime soon, but I do have quite a few things to look… Continue reading Friday vibes: February 3

Wednesday Words – Why Not Me?

“It’s traumatizing to think that a best friend could become just a friend. That’s because there’s virtually no difference between an acquaintance and a friend. But the gulf between a friend and a best friend is enormous and profound. And if I look at it that way, I think I can see the value of… Continue reading Wednesday Words – Why Not Me?

How to be the most informed girl at the water cooler

When I first enrolled in undergrad, I declared my major as journalism. I loved to write, and I loved to play anchor in front of the green screen in our broadcast studio, but the problem was that I didn’t love the news. Especially the local news. I wish I did. I wish I could be… Continue reading How to be the most informed girl at the water cooler

How we slashed $10k from our wedding budget

When MPR & I first started planning our wedding, we suffered from severe sticker shock. So we took a step back, and using my account management and media planning skills as a PR girl, I built a beautiful spreadsheet that we held near & dear to our hearts (and our wallets!) over our 2-year engagement.… Continue reading How we slashed $10k from our wedding budget

Friday vibes: January 13

In 2016 I traveled a lot for business. Like, more than I traveled in my previous 27 years combined. So I’m starting 2017 with a serious case of wanderlust, but for personal travel. It’s kind of hard when we’re also saving up for a house down payment, but that’s a #firstworldproblem if I’ve ever heard… Continue reading Friday vibes: January 13

Wednesday Words – Brené Brown

“We are the most in-debt, obese, addicted, and medicated adult cohort in US history. The problem is, and I learned this from the research, that you cannot selectively numb emotion. You can’t say, ‘here’s the bad stuff, here’s vulnerability, here’s grief, here’s shame, here’s fear, here’s disappointment, I don’t want to feel these. I’m gonna… Continue reading Wednesday Words – Brené Brown

3 TED talks to help you tackle your Monday head-on

This weekend I was thinking about the link I shared in Friday’s round-up: Your Road Map to Making the Most of Your Career, and more specifically, the point to make your commute more productive. During my first year of working post-college, I had about a 20-minute commute on an average day. On my way in every morning… Continue reading 3 TED talks to help you tackle your Monday head-on
