Virtual Coffee Catch Up Date

By |February 26th, 2014|

I’ve been slacking off a bit when it comes to my blogging.  Things have been a little busy and since I’m not one of those “whip out a quick post kind of bloggers”, I’ve taken a page from Christine@LoveLifeSurf with a Virtual Coffee Catch-Up Date […]

Resurfacing

By |January 6th, 2014|

Hello there!  I’m back.  I planned on having my post with my goals for 2014 ready today but after two weeks of being of being on school holiday break, I’m finally resurfacing to the real world (much like my lovely SLB did in the “Hungry Like The Wolf” video clip below).

It's A Wrap – #13in2013

It’s A Wrap – #13in2013

I can’t believe that the end of the year is nearly here and that it’s time to do a final wrap of my #13in2013 goals.  Overall, 2013 has been really wonderful.  While I was hesitant about making my yearly goals public, I actually […]

  • Courage, Brave

I Wanna See You Be Brave

By |December 16th, 2013|

Despite the Sara Bareilles lyric this isn’t a Monday installment of Tunes For Tuesday but it is kind of an extension of Friday’s Featured Female.  In the past week, I’ve read three blog posts by some fellow women bloggers that were just plain brave and I feel that they need to be shared.

It is not my intention to make the authors feel awkward by highlighting or bringing what might be unwanted attention to these intimate posts. I want Danielle@TRexRunner, Dani@WeightOffMyShoulders and Monica@RunEatRepeat to know how much respect I have for their courage.  It’s difficult to be honest with oneself about uncomfortable feelings or situations in life but to take the time to translate those emotions into words and then share them with the world is extremely admirable in my book.

The #Selfie – A Blogiversary Retrospective

By |December 2nd, 2013|

This post took longer than I thought to write.  Today I’m celebrating my One Year Blogiversary.  I had written some posts before December of last year as a 31 Day Project (aka dare) to see if I could actually start and stay committed to keeping up a blog but I’m considering today (ok, so maybe yesterday) my true Blogiversary.

Giving Thanks

By |November 25th, 2013|

I’m in NYC with very limited internet access so today’s post will be a brief one.  I’m lucky enough to have a great guest post from Carrie@FamilyFitnessFood on Wednesday and there is a very special Friday’s Featured Female coming at the end […]

Share Your 5 Beautiful Moments

By |January 22nd, 2016|

Yesterday, my fellow Duranie and author extraordinaire, Karen Booth (also featured on this blog here), nominated me on Facebook to share 5 photos where I felt beautiful.

I was honored to be nominated but also horrified that I would have to search through photos of myself, deem them […]

5 Must See Movies and TV Shows

By |November 13th, 2015|

All yoga and no play makes Melissa a dull girl (and bad blogger).

Yoga Teacher Training is draining and it definitely has impacted my ability to post consistently.  I’m pretty sure that will be the case until the end of the year so I hope you’ll bear with me.
