    Enjoy a Girls Getaway to The Cassara Carlsbad in San Diego, California

    June 12, 2023 /

    Photos, story by Cassie Hepler There’s some sort of siren song that keeps lulling me back to San Diego, California. Over 13 years ago, I came to visit the Los Angeles area determined I was going to move there from Philadelphia. I stayed for a month at over three different friend’s locations but the plastic thirstiness and fakeness of Hollywood was not my vibe. I’m way too straight forward and honest for that shit. Also, people thought I was very angry because I swore so much but that’s just how it is in Philly! It’s just adjectives such as very cool is fucking cool… and so on. Anyway, fast forward…

    Photos, story by Cassie Hepler My perfect vacation includes a day of rest followed by a day of adventure, rinse and repeat. I learned this many years ago when I took myself to the Dominican Republic that rhythm makes me the happiest and most fulfilled after a trip so I can rest but also fully immerse myself in the culture. It’s important to know what brings you joy on vacation so you come back refreshed and not burned out! You know, the dreaded I need a vacation after my vacation vibes. So after a fun adventure day of exploring Costa Maya, Mexico, I was super excited to spend a day…

    Four Habits of Healthy People

    May 10, 2023 /

    It’d be nice if we could just eat and do what we like, and be sure that our health and fitness were going to be in check. But alas, that’s not a reality. Modern lifestyles don’t push people towards being their healthiest best; indeed, with so many bad-for-you products available, plus a working environment that often has us sitting down for longer than we should, people are finding it more difficult than ever before to be in peak physical condition. Of course, that doesn’t apply to everyone. There are people who very much have their health in check. If you’re looking to join their ranks, then it’s worthwhile incorporating their…

    How to Fall Back in Love With Your Career

    May 2, 2023 /

    Image Pexels CC0 License Many people struggle through the working week, waiting for Friday to come around so they can spend time doing the things they enjoy. While you may have once loved your job and found your career fulfilling, over time, this positive feeling can subside, leaving you dissatisfied and unhappy. Unhappiness at work can profoundly impact your overall health and well-being and, if left unchecked, can cause a wide range of issues in your career and personal life.

    Keeping Your Loved Ones Close After Death

    April 12, 2023 /

    The idea of losing someone you love dearly is never nice, but unfortunately, it is something that everyone will go through – and more than once for most of us. For some, it is the loss of siblings and parents; for others, it is grandparents, best friends or pets.  One of the things that people like to do and often struggle with is how they can celebrate the life of their loved one – and how they can keep them close.  In the early weeks, it can be a difficult thing to think about, as often denial, upset, and worry will be prevalent at the start. Over time, and when…

    April 4, 2023 /

    Photos, story by Cassie Hepler When I was planning which cruise to take with Princess Cruises, I was obsessed with the 10 day cruise from Galveston, Texas because it included the Cayman Islands and Belize. As part of the press trip package, we were limited to 7 days so I chose the one that included Costa Maya which borders Belize and shares the same reef territory, great for snorkeling and diving. Costa Maya is also free from high rise chain hotels leaving its lagoons, archaeological gems and coastline free from clutter. And the 7 day cruise still stopped to see Roatan, Honduras so most bucket list items were checked off.…

    Why You Should Go Hiking

    March 16, 2023 /

    Image source: Pexels When it comes to fitness you might be asking yourself whether or not walking is worth it. Firstly, walking is absolutely worth it if you are trying to become fitter and healthier, but hiking takes walking to another elevated level. Hiking is one of those activities where you can rest, relax and exercise all at the same time. You’re resting away from your home or office, you are relaxing because you are in nature, and you’re exercising because the movement that you are doing will help to tone and keep your muscles fit.  When it comes to exercise, if you don’t want to join a gym, you…
