What spurred me on was you, my listener, my friend, a random stranger on the internet who opened up to me, poured out their thoughts, fears, triumphs, and helped pave the way for the YSC Community, or as I like to call it, the YSC Girl Gang and YSC Guy Tribe.

Are You Seeking a New Job?

Being unemployed is sometimes part of life – and it’s nothing to be ashamed of. Especially in the current climate, plenty of powerful ladies are finding they have more free time on their hands.

There’s a reason why cross-sex friendships tend to make a significant other feel jealous or threatened. Even if it isn’t said outright, sometimes you can feel the tension in the air or glaring eyeballs burning into your skin. Trust me, I know… I’ve been on both sides of the fence!

Working out with Ty Renner has been one of the bright spots during the pandemic. I've been training with him outdoors religiously every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Why is it that when you’re a kid you can’t wait to be a grown-up, but when you’re a grown-up, or supposed to be, you just want to be a kid again?
