If you would’ve asked me half a year ago if I thought I would be able to survive without my ex-boyfriend I would have totally said “no!” Break ups are not easy and that is a complete understatement. I was in that relationship for more than 7 years and it felt like for many of … Continue reading Post Breakup →

Took off from San Diego early afternoon on the 30th after a great night out with cousins! Headed straight to Phoenix, Arizona to spend the night there before our visit to the Grand Canyon the next day.

I was just in San Diego a month ago and being here again with my immediate family has been even better! Having family in the area is the best & it's been so nice to spend time with them.

Extremely behind on the posts I promised but here is Day 1. Rapid city was an adorable little town & the view from our Airbnb was beyond words overseeing Black Hills National Forest! Pictures really don't do enough justice. 🙂

I was on such a motivated and feel good train for a while there. I was really practicing self-care and it was working for me. I was feeling good.
