Tough love, according to Urban Dictionary, is a version of “being cruel to be kind.” It goes on to say that tough love will save an individual from heartache in the future, but may cause a small amount of upset for the receiver immediately after the tough love has been dispensed. Earlier this month, […]

Q+A with Skinny Piggy Owner
If you follow our Instagram at all you know that both Molly and I are pretty obsessed with Skinny Piggy Kombucha, a buch product local to The Queen City. We drink it on the regular (like every single day) and can’t promote it enough. Warning: people may ask you if you are drinking beer in public at […]
Will Run For… Beer?
Runners tend to be some of the kindest people I encounter. Maybe it’s because at some point, the runner’s high starts to become a permanent part of their personality. Maybe they’re all a little off their rockers (I’m looking at anyone who willingly spent time outside during the polar vortex.) Either way, when I joined […]
Transform Your Body, Mind, and Spirit: Try TriYoga
I love yoga. I fell in love with it when I began taking classes as a freshman at the University of Cincinnati, and since then I have turnd to the practice whenever I need to center myself… which is……..all the time. Over the past few years, I’ve been to numerous yoga classes taught by […]
Want a list of local studios that provide childcare? Read on….
I have mad respect for Cincinnati families working to keep wellness as a priority. My friends with kids would say that behind the scenes is a different story.

Responsibly Sourced Dining At Tano Bistro Loveland
As cliche as is it is to say, I absolutely LOVE the city of Loveland. If you aren’t familiar, Loveland is a small community of 13,000 just outside the 275 loop, northeast of Montgomery. Nestled along the Little Miami River, Loveland is known for its 70 mile long bike trail, with connections to well over 100 […]
True Confessions Of An Orangetheory Newbie
I’m pretty embarrassed to admit that my first time trying Orangetheory Fitness (OTF) was last month. I’m not sure what took me so long to give it a shot. I think in a lot of ways I can be a nonconformist. I’ve always preferred to stray from the pack, and if you know my taste […]
I tried my first Tango Class at Tango Northside
My friends and family all know that my pipe dream is to someday compete on Dancing With the Stars. I don’t really have any interest in becoming famous, so, if I’m plotting my path to the show, my only option is to become a professional dancer. Seems Feasible! For real though, if Chad Johnson could […]
We're not great at dancing, and we still love this class…
It was a cold, rainy, January morning in Cincinnati – it was one of those mornings when it feels like your bed is literally whispering your name. I was about to check out a DANSATION (dance fitness) class led by Certified Health Coach and Personal Trainer Rachelle James of RJ Fitness & Nutrition… and […]
Are you afraid of lifting weights? Read about RTS
I love listening to people talk about their passions. There is something incredibly inspiring about watching someone’s eyes light up as they share what sets their soul on fire. For Kevin Kist, his passion is actually his business (living the dream, right?!) …Risk to Succeed Barbell. RTS Barbell is a strength gym located in […]
