The pandemic has been a scary unknown, but one thing we do know is that we’re supposed to stay away from other people in order to stop the spread of the virus. This becomes a bit more difficult when you live in a home with 19 roommates.

Last weekend my friend Ash and I organized a peaceful protest for the motorcycle community of Los Angeles in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. We didn’t know what to expect, or how many people would even show up, but I made a flyer and we spread the word as much as we could.

I moved into Starcity’s Penmar location last October. It’s an airy, bright, brand new building in Venice, California, and I fell completely in love with it! I’m linking all of my decor and furniture below.

I already suck at being single. But add a global pandemic into the mix?? This felt doomed from the start…

When I was younger, in my teens and 20s, I was a tomboy and stark feminist. No man was allowed to open the door for me or carry my luggage or pay for my dinner. What, you think I can’t do it myself! Of course I can! I had a lot to prove.

If you’re going to shop this Black Friday weekend, might as well support small women-owned businesses! Here are my top picks.

Those that are close to me know that I’ve been struggling for the past year to define who I am. I’m divorced. In my marriage, I lost who I was. I gave it up. I took everything I loved and believed and put it aside to be the right person for my ex-husband.

Fun fact: I found yoga in ‘04, when I was 18 (this was before the internet was hugely popular and everyone knew everything at all times), and have practiced on and off ever since.

Since I started my own company 1.5 years ago, I've worked mostly from home. It never felt quite right to sit on the couch with my laptop, and the room where we put a desk was scattered with other random things, so I decided I really needed to put together an office where I love spending working hours.

The most common question I receive on Instagram is: "How do you edit your photos to look like that?" Well, today is the day that I lay it out, step by step. 

You guys, I'm SO tired of people showing me pity because of my dietary restrictions. 

I used to be one of those "I only have male friends" girls, for most of my life. I just couldn't figure out how girls became friends so quickly with each other, and I always ended up feeling left out. 

A few months ago I noticed an interesting thing - only bloggers wear crop tops to work out. If you go to a sponsored blogger workout class, 95%+ of the girls there will be wearing a crop top, but in a normal fitness class, there may be one or two people max. "Normal" people always cover up. Why is that?

2017 was an epic year. The things that were good were really good, and the things that were bad were pretty darn bad. Some things that happened this year:

Life is a whirlwind lately, but in a good way. I started my own business in January and, I don't want to jinx it, but it's finally taking off. Owning your own business means sleepless nights, nonstop work, and constant stress because there's no one but you to do the work to make the business succeed.

Over the weekend, I went to a conference for female creative entrepreneurs called Create & Cultivate. There were bossladies everywhere, and nonstop gorgeous interactive booths by amazing brands. I went with my friend and fellow blogger Sam Song Seeking.

Haven't gone to the Museum of Ice Cream yet? Not to worry! You can add a little magic to your everyday with these phone wallpapers that I captured during my visit.

Sharing some of my favorite things from the past few months <3

The cool thing is, if I've learned anything in life, it's that there's never a reason to give up on your goals. Even if you fail at completing your goals for months, or years, or even decades, you can pick up at any time and JUST. DO. IT. Just do it. It's that easy (Nike got it right). It doesn't have to be perfect. It doesn't have to be anything other than what you can put out there. But just do it. Because what's worse than failing? Never even trying.

I always have a hard time choosing the wallpaper for my phone, but recently it's been easy with all of the spring florals around the city! I'm currently using and loving the black and white poppies, but you know the succulent are next up!
