No longer trapped, just trap(ezius)ed out

I think it’s kind of funny that this week I’ve been complaining about feeling trapped – and now my traps are incredibly sore from the workout I did to relieve that stress. Sorry, I’m a word geek like that. After my Monday meltdown, I spent yesterday getting back on track – and that included going back to Rachel Cosgrove’s Female Body Breakthrough. I talked a big game yesterday about how maybe I was too advanced to do the Base Phase again – while I haven’t been doing the Cosgrove program lately, I’ve still considered lifting to be a good substitute, …

I am so, so tired

This travel schedule is really wearing on me. On Monday mornings, I have to be up at 4am to head to the airport and catch my flight. I usually work on the flight, so there isn’t really extra time to sleep after that, which means I try to go to bed by 8:30pm on Sunday nights – which kind of kills the afternoon/evening with packing and getting ready. On Thursdays, my flight typically lands at 11:30pm, and then I still have to get home from the airport. Lately, I’ve been trying to squeeze in late night meetups in an attempt …

I’m a Greatist!

I am very proud and very excited today to announce… my first Greatist article was published today! The topic I picked for my article should come as no surprise: Why Alcohol is Good For You. When I saw that appear on the “content list” of potential topics, I knew I couldn’t resist – and I was shocked how much research I was able to find on the subject. (Then again, who doesn’t like being forced to drink in the name of science? I definitely know at least one willing tester!) Before researching this article, I have to admit, I’ve always felt …

Homesickness and a Free Figure 4 Class!

Sometimes it can be really tough for me to be away from home all the time. I get jealous of my friends at home who are able to to do the little things, like cook dinner or meet up on a weeknight. Last night, it hit me particularly hard – I had only gotten 3 hours of sleep the night before (was up stressing about a bunch of things), and when we wrapped up work around 7:30pm, all I wanted to do was go back to the hotel, have a protein bar or two as a quick dinner, and immediately …

What do YOU do with 11 extra minutes?

Today has been pretty busy, but also pretty exciting. After a long day of travel home from Dallas last night (I can’t wait to be able to take nonstops instead of connecting itineraries next week!), I got to sleep in until 7:45am – 8.5 hours of sleep never felt so good! This week has been a bit light on sleep for me, but I am definitely going to use the weekend to make it up. When I did get up, I headed downtown for a meeting that yielded some great news. I made it through the interview process and am …
