Book Review: Bella Figura by Kamin Mohammadi
Bella Figura: How to Life, Love, and Eat the Italian Way OH MY GOSH!!! I swear that Kamin was writing my story of food allergies/intolerances, stress, weight gain, lots of artificial light, and a schedule full of mostly nonsense. Or maybe an overwhelming majority of us could relate. I loved reading her story as she … Continue reading Book Review: Bella Figura by Kamin Mohammadi
April 2021 Challenge Update: Week 3 of No Sugar
I think the hardest part is over. I don’t find myself looking for the sweetness of sugar at this point. Sure I craved a little bit a chocolate but I was completely satisfied with some carrots. Crazy! Yes I know! But I have not had any intense, give it to me now or else, moments. … Continue reading April 2021 Challenge Update: Week 3 of No Sugar
Book Review: Niksen by Olga Mecking
Niksen: Embracing the Dutch Art of Doing Nothing If you have read books like Digital Minimalism, Spark Joy, and the likes, then you may already know that your brain needs some space to simply DO NOTHING.

April 2021 Challenge Update: Week 1 of No Sugar
After reading Year of No Sugar by Eve O. Schaub, I was inspired to fully eliminate sugar out of my life. I questioned if that little bit of daily honey was enough sugar to push my blood pressure up enough that my dear cardiologist felt that it was necessary to put me on medicine. I … Continue reading April 2021 Challenge Update: Week 1 of No Sugar
April 2021 Experiment Inspired by Year of No Sugar by Eve O. Schaub

Is it necessary for survival? Does it actually cause you to get fat or does fat make you fat? Is sugar the new heroin? Could … Continue reading April 2021 Experiment Inspired by Year of No Sugar by Eve O. Schaub
Wrapping Up My No Instagram for March Challenge
Earlier this month I announced that I would go the entire month of March without Instagram all thanks to reading Give It Up! by Mary Carlomagno. Overall it was nice to step away from Instagram and reevaluate my interactions with the platform. I found that I used Instagram when I was bored. I would mindlessly … Continue reading Wrapping Up My No Instagram for March Challenge
I Have a Book Problem But My Librarian Disagrees with Me
Before I started my first no spend year in 2019, I swore that borrowing books from my local library wouldn’t work for me. I had this weird narrative in my mind that the library book had to stay home, couldn’t be read during breakfast, I could only check out old, dusty and dated books, and … Continue reading I Have a Book Problem But My Librarian Disagrees with Me

Book Review: The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel
The Psychology of Money: Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Greed, and Happiness 5 star review! The author did a fabulous job explaining the psychology behind how people arrive at making their own money decisions.

Wonderful balance. … Continue reading Book Review: The Psychology of Money by Morgan Housel
