I wrote a post about two years ago called "Life is a Balancing Act" (read it here). I feel like that is even more me now. I have so much going on in my life that it can feel overwhelming. I think for a bit there, I got my priorities out of order. I'm holding … Continue reading Balancing Act
You know what's really cool? Seeing yourself make progress and accomplish things you never thought you could do!

Do you ever find yourself changing your style? Maybe it's your clothes, the way you write, or the you music you listen to. Sometimes your style changes, and that's okay.
