I recently gave up my daily latte for peppermint tea. … OK, in all fairness it has only been two days. But I found myself craving peppermint tea yesterday. Why? I have no idea. My body simply told me, “Hey, you want peppermint tea today.” And that was that.
When it comes to my tea, I’m […]
It’s been awhile since I initially shared with all of you that I signed up for Noom and was giving that a whirl. Well, I’ve since finished my three-month sign-up, and it was quite interesting. Though I may not have seen weight loss in terms of lbs, I took away something more important. Noom’s whole […]
They say the best form of advertising and marketing is word-of-mouth. And it is true. One of the topics of discussion in more than one of my Masters of Marketing degree classes was how valuable it is when your customers “sell” your product/service for you.

Week 4, last week, started off all right, but became a mixed bag. Somehow it became “carb week” – and boy did I feel a difference in my gut. But let me begin by saying that I was reunited with the one and only Masha – the pilates guru of Millerton. I’ve worked with Masha […]
Well, the journey continues. Last week, week 2, was a very busy one at work and just in life in general and I still haven’t mastered all aspects of what I need to master in my new healthier life – but I’m working on it. It is a lifelong project after all and so I’m […]
Well, 2019 has just bid us farewell and most of us welcome 2020 with open arms. It is after all a new year, a fresh start. Tabula rasa, if you will.
