What I Wish I Knew My First Year of College

What I Wish I Knew My First Year of College
This is a sponsored post in collaboration with BabbleBoxx. All opinions are my own. It’s that time of year again—all of my college posts have tripled in traffic and my inbox is full of questions from new college freshman who found my blog and are looking for guidance. While I’m past the college chapter of my life, I was looking back at my freshman year and asking myself how I’ve changed and what I know now that I didn’t know then. While I’m not a college blogger anymore, I want to share the ten things I wish I’d known my first… View Post

Easy Ways to Makeover Your Small Space with Devine Color by Valspar
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Devine Color by Valspar . All opinions are 100% mine.

The One Thing You Need to Know About Life After College

In the fall of 2015 I had a less than pretty struggle with depression and decided I needed to take time off college so that I could take care of myself.

The Post Grad’s Guide to Using a Planner

The Post Grad’s Guide to Using a Planner
I’m a year in, but sometimes I still feel the growing pains of transitioning from being a college student to working in my first full-time “big-kid” job. The beauty of being a college student that I was the only one depending on myself. It was a curse and a gift, really. I could justify allowing things to fall through the cracks, because really, who was it going to hurt? But that also meant that I felt a lot less pressure. Now my job has me working with a team of wonderful, brilliant people that I think the world of –… View Post

Essential Oils: The Beginner’s Guide

Essential Oils: The Beginner’s Guide
Essential oils are having their moment in a big way – every time I open Pinterest I see a dozen different oil focused pins, and essential oils have been popping up on my Facebook feed for months. To be honest, I was a little skeptical at first. Before I knew more about essential oils and diffusers I thought they were glorified air fresheners. Fast forward to now, and I’m an essential oil convert. Around two months ago I cracked and ordered a Young Living Essential Oils Starter Kit thanks to encouragement from my boyfriend’s cousin (thanks, Katie!). Since then I’ve… View Post
