Earlier this month, I completed my first 7-day armpit detox. Believe it or not, I learned a lot after doing this detox! Overall, I really enjoyed it. It’s definitely not necessary before transitioning to natural deodorant, but as I shared in my previous post where I highlighted some of the research I found on the…

I’m going to teach you how to make a super quick, easy, under 30-minute taco recipe, and you’re going to love it! Why Are They Called Triflin’ Tacos, and What is Wrong With You, Lex? I’m calling…
It has been a few months since I was first introduced to Follain. I thought I was doing pretty well with natural skincare until I first found Follain’s Restricted Ingredients list, and it really changed the way that I shop for beauty products. I haven’t swapped out everything yet because, well, I don’t want to…
Day 4 wasn’t so bad. Admittedly, I did a ton of work on Day 4, but I managed to break it up with a trip to my office to pick up an extra monitor, a grocery store trip to restock on vegetables, and a nice, short run. The weather was pretty nice, the sun was shining,…
:: In my Ice Cube voice :: Today was a good day. While I didn’t do most of the things I planned to do today (my sincerest apologies, yesterday), I did manage to get some serious cycling in – I biked just over 18 miles today! As I lay here, struggling to keep my eyes open,…
It’s Day 2 of our statewide quarantine, and I’m doing a little better with combating monotony. I got in a bit of exercise today, got some fresh air, and took a few work phone calls. Was my day exciting? Absolutely not. Was it more interesting than yesterday? Totally! I started out the day with some…
Today was the first day that I was required to telework and break from my regular routine. I’m such an extrovert, and I’m always on the go, so staying put in my apartment was not ideal. Nonetheless, I completely understand why! Most of my day was filled with me sitting at my laptop and working….
Have you listened to the new podcast I’m co-hosting, the Fit Black Queens Podcast? We interviewed The Philly Bra Lady on a recent episode, and she taught me so much about bra care, maintenance, and basic facts. I thought I was pretty knowledgeable, but it turns out I know nothing, Jon Snow. It was because…
Ever since my last visit to Follain, and the eye-opening experience that brought with it, I have been trying to transition/phase out my makeup and skincare products with natural products and brands. Prior to my Follain experience – and ever since – I have dabbled with natural deodorants. The only brand I’ve found thus far…
I am so excited, you guys: I was selected to be a Balega Impi Ambassador! Balega is an amazing brand with high-quality running socks. A lot of us bloggers throw around the phrase “brand ambassador,” but what does it actually mean to be a brand ambassador? A brand ambassador is someone who has a passion…
