I am so excited about these next few months! Already my summer is jam-packed with both career-building opportunties as well as adventures. I graduate in December, so this summer is my last as a student before I enter into the "real" world (hopefully with a job). A lot of my summer plans kick off next [...]
This past Tuesday was Day 30 of my first ever Whole 30. For those who don't know, Whole 30 is a 30 day program in which you eat whole foods, including vegetables, meat, nuts, healthy fats, and fruits. No legumes, grains, dairy, or alcohol. 100% clean eating for 30 days. I decided to do Whole [...]

When I was growing up, I thought that macarons were the weirdest looking dessert ever. I had only seen pictures, and assumed they would be gross. I remember someone telling me they were made with almond flour, so I immediately wondered who on Earth would want to eat a nut cookie. I assumed they'd have [...]
This weekend has been full with the presence of the Holy Spirit in my life. There has been a peace and happiness that has settled over my heart like no other, even in the midst of trials and heartache. This spiritual weekend began on Friday with my Delight meeting. I felt an energy in myself [...]
Over the weekend, Delight Akron travelled to Michigan to attend the Delight For the Girl Tour. The event was all about relationships and how to navigate them with Jesus being your number one focus.
