The Importance of Sleep
Now, one thing that I've been trying to be better about in these past few weeks has been my sleep.

Fitness Progress
Recently, I started coaching and I began first - before reaching out to help other people - by challenging myself to work out for 21 days straight, 30 minutes each day, following workout videos for the plan I was using.

Notion: My New Favorite Productivity System

Creating a Routine
One of my goals for my 19 for 2019 list was to create consistent everyday routines. Now, before I go on I’d like to preface by saying that I’m definitely not looking to have a one hour morning routine where I wake up, meditate, journal, etc. - not that those things aren’t all valuable. I … Continue reading Creating a Routine

Day One - 6 January Today is my first day of tracking what I eat. I don’t intend to change my diet for this week, just eat as I normally would, so I can track how I’m doing based off of my intuitive eating processes. Normally, I eat what I crave, supplemented by what I … Continue reading My Current Nutrition
