Hi, I have a cold, and it won’t seem to go away. After being extremely frustrated for almost two weeks now, I’ve decided to start cutting the negativity and choose optimism.

Produce in Season During the Fall
Today marks the beginning of the most wonderful time of year—the fall season! At approximately 1:02 p.m. (PT), the autumn equinox begins, and I am [obviously] very pumped about this development.

My head has been in the clouds lately. More specifically, I’ve been reflecting a lot on how I spend my time every day, every week.

Ahhh Friday—the day most of us take a big sigh of relief because we can finally take a mini-break from being a productive member of society. One thing weekends are notorious for? Indulging.

How I Did LiveFit Trainer Without a Gym
When I was first considering the LiveFit Trainer, I knew I would be doing it without a gym.
