Last week, I wrote about being too tired to care and too stubborn to quit. I dropped the curtain a little, shared how close to burnout I was, and how much I was just trying to keep going. This post is not a polished comeback or some rebrand of wellness. It is a continuation.This is… Continue reading Low-Key Self-Care Wins

Too Tired to Care, Too Stubborn to Quit: Notes from the Edge of Burnout
There is a specific kind of exhaustion that seeps into your bones, where your to-do list has turned into a Choose Your Own Adventure—but every ending is "crash on the couch and eat cold leftovers straight from the container." This week, I have been functioning. I do not mean thriving, flourishing, or leaning into joy.… Continue reading Too Tired to Care, Too Stubborn to Quit: Notes from the Edge of Burnout
Cheaters never win, and…
I found out today that someone I have run with in the past has cheated in several races. It really disturbs me that someone would do this. My journey to get healthy through running, exercise, and better eating has been pock-marked with successes and failures, I could never imagine cheating myself out of this journey.… Continue reading Cheaters never win, and…

The Truth
Someone else besides me should share this truth with my husband. Tomorrow healthy eating and running updates; today I felt the need to share this truth.
Take pause and give strength
My blog, From Here to Me, is really just a journal where I keep my thoughts and experiences as I go through this journey called life. I have made a lot of changes over the past year and a half, I have failed at some goals, and far exceeded my expectations for others. When I… Continue reading Take pause and give strength
Why am I whining?
Monday and Wednesday of this week we did ab work at boot camp, considering I am a couple of cases away from a six-pack, this has been a particularly interesting experience for my body. Today I went on a short run, about 30-minutes, my normal morning run. After eating breakfast I got up to get… Continue reading Why am I whining?
