  • My 2022 Yoga Journey

    I ran into a journal prompt asking to talk about the 11th photo on my phone. This photo is of myself, laying on my yoga mat, post-workout. In January, a friend wanted an accountability buddy for Yoga with Adrienne’s 30-day challenge. My husband and I took her up on the offer. We were to follow…

    Reviewing Goals from 1st Quarter

    For 2022 I decided to try something new. Goal setting has never been a strong suit. Either they are too vague, incalculable, or something I didn’t care enough about to make happen. This year I decided to set goals, with quarterly milestones, to hopefully make them more achievable. This system has already taught me a…

  • I am a Martial Artist

    I am a Martial Artist

    I did a thing. The last few years have been full of life changes. More and more of my time was spent reacting instead of living intentionally. I was incapable of telling you what I do for fun because me-time was a thing of the past. Becoming a mother, a homeowner, working 2 jobs, and…

  • My Spring Reading List

    Spring is here. Not going to lie – I’ve been so overwhelmed as of late that I wish it was still winter so I could burrow into my blankets and hide for a while longer. I read some fun books the last few months including “This is How You Lose the Time War” by Max…

    It’s been awhile

    Hello again. Long time no visit. I’ve been away awhile, working on me. Since I last saw you, many things have changed. Many things have also stayed the same. I’ve taken up yoga and do it every day. I walk taller, feel more grounded, and have had less anxiety these past few months. I still…

  • 7 Things I Cannot Live Without This Week

    Here is an unfiltered (and not sponsored) list of items that I cannot live without this week (or, honestly, ever). AmandaRachLee Journal I am obsessive about to-do lists and this journal is the perfect place to store all my thoughts and tasks and problems. It’s the perfect size to fit in my purse, the dot…

    An Update on My Autumn Bucket List – Halfway Through!

    Okay, so this post is coming out later than expected. Life got busy and then we went on vacation. On the bright side, this means I can update you on how successful I have been at completing this list. Let’s just cut to the chase – here is my autumn bucket list: Decorate for fall…

  • 5 Books to Read this Autumn

    Nothing makes you want to cozy up more than the weather changing and the leaves falling. In the fall, all I want is a cup of tea, a blanket, and to curl up with a good book. If you are anything like me, then this is also what you are looking forward to now that…

  • 5 Things I Love About the Fall

    It’s a total cliché to say that “fall is my favorite season” but here I am, saying it is my favorite season anyways. I am a cliché and I do not care. It’s partially the weather, it’s partially the colors, and it’s partially the fact that I am, in fact, a cliché.  I love to…

  • Rambling Update: Baking and Boundaries

    I made blueberry muffins today. They were made with sourdough discard and cornmeal based on the Blueberry Sourdough Muffin recipe from King Arthur Flour. These were sooooooooo much better than the blueberry muffins I made last week. I will definitely try this recipe again. The last muffins were blueberry banana muffins. They were too sticky and…
