Nature vs. Nurture

Listen to the Audio Version Instead: Nature vs. NurtureI love when an idea just comes to me, clear as day; it’s like the universe taps me on the shoulder, I turn around, and it hands me a little message. I imagine that’s what SNL writers experience all the time - just constantly coming up with…

I'm beyond honored to have connected with a company that is redefining what it means to be a man. This is my first post from someone I didn't personally know, and I couldn't be more pleased and inspired. Ladies - forward this on to your man, and for those of you raising boys, this is…

What Does Masculinity Look Like To You?

This week’s topic: Toxic Masculinity Typically when I start a blog post, I have a general idea of what I want to cover. Tonight, however, as I stare at my night-mode screen, behind my blu-blox glasses, I consider so many different avenues, as I want to be sensitive and speak appropriately about the topic. I…

We Are FAMILY

Life is beautiful when you can share it with those you love. Grateful doesn't begin to describe how I feel, being able to collaborate with my best friends, giving them a platform to express their thoughts. When I began mapping out my posts, I knew I wanted Alex writing for Thanksgiving week - her relationship…

It’s Thanksgiving – What Are You Grateful For?

UncategorizedNovember 27, 201916Views 0Likes 0Comments

It’s Thanksgiving, which largely means expressing thanks for that which you’re grateful. I know most of my posts have been in story form, but I think this one will be a little different because… well, because I can make it different, and for that, I am thankful. It’s my version of ‘because I said so.’…

Am I Parenting Right?

First, let me start by saying this is one of the most refreshing reads about pregnancy and parenting I've ever consumed, not that I'm sitting around reading 'how to be a parent' books during my free time, but still... she doesn't put a rose-colored lens on her experience, which I'm sure so many people will…

A Letter to Him

Parenting… what do I know about parenting? Short answer… nothing, which is why I’m not going to dive into a post about my experience on the matter. Wait, what if I actually surprised you all and have been raising a kid for the last five years? I suppose I really wouldn’t be in a position…

As you may know, this week, we've been discussing beauty; I thought Jenna would be the perfect writer for this topic, as she's performed for two of Arizona's professional sports teams, as you'll see her get into. I remember practicing our Suns audition routine with her at her parents' house and instantly loving her. So,…

Hello, Beautiful

Finally, the opportunity has presented itself and I will try my hand at beauty blogging, though, maybe those girls (and guys) review products more or make recommendations to their readers? That’s not what I will be doing today, because that’s not what you’re here for, right? You don’t care that I use a Clarisonic face…

Here’s My Barbie – Wanna Be Friends?

Just so you all know, I put A LOT of pressure on myself when starting these blogs… do I jump in with a sweet ‘hey guys!’ or bust the door open without knocking, like the Kool Aid man? I suppose I prefer the latter. I was talking to some friends last weekend during Friendsgiving about…

“Freeing yourself was one thing, claiming ownership of that freed self was another.” -Toni Morrison When Devon asked me to share the story of my divorce, I was initially reluctant because words can only go so far in describing the complexities of my emotions and feelings, which to me, have only become clearer with thoughtful…
