Wow! Is this really the last week of October? Where did it all go and why did it go so quickly? It seems like when I was younger, every day moved so slowly. I thought I'd never reach adulthood, and here I am in my late twenties wishing things would slow down, appreciating every… Continue reading Kermit Says: Motivational Monday
Dear Kermit: From Me to You
Yesterday, Washington Post journalist, Amy Ellis Nutt, published an article reporting the inadequate and oftentimes nonexistent mental health resources and treatment available to adults. According to an annual assessment conducted by the non-profit organization Mental Health America, "Twenty percent of adults (43.7 million people) have a mental health condition, and more than half of… Continue reading Dear Kermit: From Me to You
Wellness Wednesday: Just Breathe

Music is my life--that's not an exaggeration. I actually wrote about music for my college essay because it's so influential… Continue reading Tuesday Tunesday: 24K Magic

Dear Kermit: Know Yourself, Know Your Worth
Happy Tuesday, friends! You know what time it is: it's time for another Dear Kermit... podcast (finally). Today's post is not a response to anyone's question, but perhaps a piece of advice from myself to myself.
