Ambitious Kitchen Gift Guide 2016: For the Fitness Lover

AK Gift Guide 2016: For the Fitness Lover

Dec 11

And I’m back with another gift guide for all the fitness lovers in your life. From the yogis to runners to crossfit bosses, these fitness focused gifts make incredible presents during the holiday season.

What I adore most about a gift is something that I can use over and over again. Think leggings, pullovers, a smoothie mixer, yoga mat spray and so much more. Being someone who works out nearly everyday, I’ll admit that I kind of want all of these fitness focused gifts for myself.

Check it out below and get shopping just in time for Christmas…

Happy Day After Thanksgiving! Before you go out shopping, I’ve got a special surprise for you!

I’m back from San Francisco filled with inspiration and feel good energy! Sorry about being late on this post again — I stayed up way too late and passed out with my computer on my lap before I could finish the post. I’m feeling stressed out of my mind and all I want to do is eat a burger and fries. Obviously I need to crush that craving this weekend so I stop thinking about it.

Weekend Favorites: Hunting for furniture

Happy weekend! I’m so sorry for the delay in my post — as you probably know it’s pretty rare for me to miss my Friday posts.

I hopped in a flight at 4am Thursday morning to Denver for a meeting, left that evening to fly to Kansas City so I could speak at ChoppedCon, then finally flew home Friday afternoon. Hence why I missed my weekend favorites. But here we are, just a little delayed.

I can’t believe I’m actually writing this: WE ARE HOMEOWNERS! IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO.

Okay, it’s really a condo. But it’s everything I’ve always dreamed of. A nice 1700 square foot vintage penthouse that’s been completely refinished. The espresso floors called my name the moment we walked into the open house!
