Hi and welcome to what I affectionately, and jokingly, refer to as my #passionproject. I’m Krista and I’m a married, working mom of three mini-me’s, living in Columbus, Ohio.

Like many people, I’m interested in a variety of things and find it hard to put myself into one box or another. We’re all complex and need a balance of different things to lead a fully healthy life.

I have always loved to read and write. I love working out and eating healthy but I also love to bake and indulge in grownup drinks. I love to plan and organize but I’ve also had to learn, and try, to be more flexible, live in (mild) chaos, and troubleshoot. And I love to sing and dance. My kids think I’m the coolest when I learn the lyrics and dances from Disney Channel original movies, obviously. 

I’m just trying to do my best to make time for all the things I love and give priority to the things that fuel my mind, body, and whole self. And I’m trying to teach my kids the same. Making sure they know that our minds and bodies need certain things to stay healthy and feel our best and that those things can be different for different people.

I’m a firm believer in the expressions “you can’t pour from an empty cup” and “you do your best when you feel your best.”

This blog was resurrected with the encouragement of a friend that reignited my passion for writing. I hope you enjoy and find ways to help fuel yourself.
