Women lie. And so does the beauty industry.

Beauty enhancement tools that society thinks we need are not solutions, they're beauty bandaids.

No matter how much sleep you get, supplements you take and meditation you do, if your heart isn’t in the right place, you aren’t going to feel vibrant and alive.

I felt curious to discover what was beh...

In the age of social media, non-verbal communication, and long distance relations, some of us can’t remember how to make or keep a real friend. But what is friendship? Really?


In this episode I explore what I've learned in long distance friendships, barriers to friendship in adulthood and how to know it's time to break up.

How can you be an active participate in your life? How do we find freedom from traditional jobs, relationships and viewpoints? And why do we feel the need to conform to normal routines? Ideas of who you are supposed to be shouldn't keep you from who you're becoming. I'm talking all about anti-American ideals, French cooking and learning how to cultivate relationships with others, God and myself.

I’m exploring American diet culture and how French create the most basic yet intricate carbs. What would it look like to chew instead of spit? To embrace instead of avoid? What does it take to create food that feeds not only our bodies, but our souls?

It was always expected in my Christian community. But now that I'm in the community of the world... I'm learning that I have to find out how to mean the words I...

It is hard to eat. I know this statement seems vile and sad but that doesn't change its vouching.
