    The 3 Things We All NEED To Become Creative

    Everybody has a reason behind why they do what they’re doing. Even if you’re just sitting on the couch watching Netflix, you have a driving motivation (pleasure, relaxation, a desire to be distracted from something stressful, etc.). I used to think I was simply a creative person, and therefore doing creative things came naturally to…

  • A Confession…

    I definitely created this post because I knew I’d be giving my website to people at Social Media Marketing World…

  • Exploring Life Through Action Films | John Wick [Spoilers]

    Action films aren’t my typical go-to (unless super hero movies count?). I’m the one who goes for dorky Disney Channel Original Movies, animated flicks, RomComs, family-aimed adventure movies, or films from decades-gone-by (especially if Don Knotts is involved). However, when my friends decided to watch through the John Wick trilogy, I decided to give it…

  • Lessons From Dance

    Recently I took up ballroom dancing. It has been a challenging shift, since my only previous history was in very casual swing dancing. In that realm, I felt reasonably confident because I’d memorized the majority of the steps that anyone ever did with me. Ballroom? Oh, it’s a whole different story. I had no idea…

  • Give Yourself Some Grace

    The last couple of times I’ve played Frisbee or disc golf with anyone, I realized I have a bad habit of talking down to myself when I make a poor shot. Why? I often imagine others notice my mistakes as much as I do. It somehow feels awkward to move on without acknowledging or explaining…

  • How To Do Less Laundry

    Presently I live where I have to use a coin-based washing machine. Spending a total of $2.75 for each load that I wash and dry isn’t too bad, especially compared to the price of buying a washer and dryer. Still, I try to use my precious quarters as little as possible. Here are some ways…

  • My First Time Teaching

    I just got home from teaching at a youth group for the first time ever! I have to admit, it’s still slightly weird to me that someone would think of having me lead teenagers. Like, I’m barely out of my teen years, right? Then I realize: Right. I am 26. A decade or more older…

  • 5 Tips For Newbie Disc Golfers

    After seven-ish years of telling myself I would take up disc golf, I’ve finally gotten around to it! I’ll be the first to tell you: I really suck! But that’s okay. Today was only my first-ever play through of the local course, so I feel pretty justified scoring 7’s and 9’s on all those par-3…

  • Singles: You MUST hear this (marrieds, you should too)

    Absorbing media aimed at singles has become my own version of gambling. Pull the lever and hope luck is on my side! Will the media be insightful? Encouraging? Laughable? Completely cringe-worthy? You never know until you jump in! This weekend when I heard my friends’ church was doing a topical sermon on the subject, I…

  • Going Offline.

    It’s so easy to be completely wrapped up in all things digital. I make my living by operating a large company’s social media. I keep in touch with my family through the internet. Many of my dearest friends exist within the constraints of Facebook Messenger due to the miles that limit our in-person visits. I…
