I honestly can't stand all of the articles I read that are like "You're in your 20's! Quit your job and open up an ice cream shack in the Bahamas!" or "Don't worry about getting a job - backpack through Europe and find yourself!" Come on, in my early 20s I lived with my parents…

How Realistic Is Working To Live?
Do you live to work or work to live? I swore to myself that I'd never be the kind of person who lives to work. Who thinks about their job all the time. Who misses out on life because they were too busy working. I struggle with work/life balance and to understand office culture. There…
Getting In Your Own Way
I once read that anxiety tortures you twice, it hits you leading up to the thing you see anxious about and then you have anxiety once that thing actually occurs. Double the anxiety for one thing. I’ve always gotten in my own way on things. I had actually given up on the job I currently…
Undercover Escapism

When it comes to my career, I’ve always felt like I was just going wherever life takes me. It’s been hard to carve out a path. I recently left the job I got after getting laid off and started a new job. Getting laid off was a really big blow, I had been with the…
Meet Safida!
A few weeks ago, I showed my boyfriend a picture of this dog available for adoption and he said we could go look at him. Reader, my mouth dropped. That’s when we first started weighing out if we could get another dog. I’ve always wanted to save allll the animals, but realistically we rent and…
7 Year Blogiversary
7 years of blogging and I think I've seen it all! I feel like I joined WordPress before the height of blogging/influencers even really peaked. When I first started this blog, WordPress was comprised of mostly small communities and very little of the bloggers in those communities were writing on their blogs to get paid.…
