Today I’m celebrating seven years of sobriety. I’m grateful for my sobriety every day. August 5th of 2011 changed my life. It was also the scariest, hardest day, I’ve ever experienced. I walked into the ER with my husband by my side and asked for help. The interesting thing about that day was it was… Continue reading Sobriety | Celebrating Seven Years

Finding Sacramento Podcast
I had the best time on the Finding Sacramento podcast! Earlier this year, I sat down with the host, Nathan Miller, and we chatted about so many things including Sacramento, marathons, triathlons, blogging, sobriety, and finding balance in life.

Living Sober
I was speaking with someone the other day that asked me why my posts about sobriety have dropped off. He said I used to post about it a lot, but now my focus seemed to have shifted. From his perspective, a post about living sober falls into one bucket, and a post about distance running… Continue reading Living Sober

New to the Gym
If you were a regular at the gym over the past few weeks, it’s likely you had your choice of treadmills or no problem getting your favorite bike in spin class. It’s hard to find a new gym goer the last week in December. And of course, come January 2, that will all change. At least for… Continue reading New to the Gym
They can’t all be winners
I like to think of this blog as a really positive space. I love to share some of the things I’ve done to be happier, healthier, and find more joy in my life. And it’s a reflection of me. I’d say 90% of the time, I’m happy and I can find the good… Continue reading They can’t all be winners
Alcoholics in Movies | The Girl On The Train
Over the weekend I went to see The Girl On The Train. I’d read the book, so I knew the storyline and I was really happy that the movie didn’t disappoint. It was just as intense and suspenseful as the book. For those who haven’t seen the movie yet, or read the book, I won’t give anything… Continue reading Alcoholics in Movies | The Girl On The Train
Working Out for the Body and Mind
I am huge advocate for working out. For me, being active is pretty much non-negotiable. Although it’s nice to burn calories and get stronger, or have more endurance, I think I workout for my mental health more than anything. In fact, I’m certain that’s the case. I’ve never been against a good sweat… Continue reading Working Out for the Body and Mind
