Do The Fit Really Get Fitter?
I’m fairly certain everyone is familiar with the old saying, “the rich get richer…” — especially since it has resurfaced to throw sour grapes at modern billionaires — but what about the fit get fitter? The Case for Professional Athletes This idea was initially inspired by the professional triathletes I have been following through the

Using Self-Reflection Effectively
Self-reflection is deeply ingrained in discussions surrounding emotional intelligence and widely touted as the way to self-improvement, but could it actually be hurting you? According to Harvard Business Review, self-reflection is the act of looking back on your day to evaluate your thoughts and actions without regret. The key point here, though, is those two

Adding “Seasoning” to Your Life
As someone from the upper region of the northern hemisphere, I was no stranger to all four seasons. I switched sports depending on what time of year it was; ice skating in the winter, basketball in the spring, softball in the summer, cross country in the fall.

Graduate School: A Cautionary Tale from a Two-Time Dropout
I tried graduate school twice but dropped out after one year both times. It wasn’t that I couldn’t handle the academics (I had completed all the required coursework in my first degree and was halfway through the requirements of the second), I couldn’t handle the competitiveness of academia. For years, I had tied my self-worth

How to Stay Consistent with Exercise
In a previous post, I wrote about my running journey. I love running, but I haven’t always been able to do it. I have had many injuries and other commitments that left me unable to either endure the physicality of running or find the time to run. Usually, when that happens, both my mental and
