Feeling stuck? Time to get your side hustle on.

I have to be honest here, anything turmeric used to gross me out big time. Any sauce, latte, or juice with this vile yellow substance just look repulsive. I always thought, how and why do people consume that? After researching the health benefits, it became very clear to me why turmeric powder was taking over the health and wellness game. For starters, there have been several studies proving that turmeric contains anti inflammatory properties. The Arthritis Foundation in particular found…
This time of year I can’t get on any form of social media without seeing the word diet plastered all over my feed. Let’s get a few things straight about the word diet. The term diet (noun) is described as, “the kinds of food that a person, animal, or community habitually eats.” A diet is not associated with restriction, abstention, or constraint. In my not so humble opinion, I believe the phrase, “I’m going on a diet,” is outrageously outdated…
Years ago I attempted to make ‘healthy’ gluten free pasta and let’s just say the results turned me off from all ‘guilt free’ pasta ever since. My healthy noodles turned out frail, lifeless, and took all the happiness out of consuming carbs. As my family would say when I try to feed them something with kale in it and they don’t want to offend me, “it tasted healthy.” Panic ensued as pasta at fine Italian restaurants left my heart happy,…
I’ve never been one to consider myself 100% on board with any type of psychic, especially those who seem to look into their crystal ball and ‘somehow’ determine my fate. I think that episode of Long Island Medium where she hears the dead calling to her while trying on shoes at Neiman Marcus really buried any real belief in psychics for me. Either that or I knew there was no way that any telepathic abilities could make its way through…
I felt it was my duty to write this post after perusing my usual groups on Facebook a couple of weeks ago. While catching up with strangers online who regularly discuss the inner workings of reality trash television, I happened to come across women asking for Charleston recommendations. I dug deep down into the thread of 100+ comments for research purposes and came across women discussing the usual venues–quaint cocktail spots, heavily advertised fine dining, etc. It was all fine,…
I’ve given almost every healthy diet fad a try, mixed up my workouts, sweat once or twice a day, and tried basically everything I could to minimize my stress levels and lose a little weight. It wasn’t until I completely switched up my morning routine that the weight started coming off with minimal effort. The small changes that greatly affected my health didn’t involve weighing out my food, prepping every meal into Tupperware containers, or working myself to death in…
I remember when I had to time to guess, test and pull new healthy recipes out of a hat, but that’s just not where I’m ( and possibly all of you ) at right now–after all, a bitch is busy. I am all about making the best food in the least amount of time possible, which is why I haven’t shared a healthy recipe in some time now. Healthy food that’s fast isn’t necessarily beautiful, motivating or Instagram worthy. So,…
