Since I was 18, I’ve moved cities four times, excluding returning to live with family members in Washington state between moves. As a new adult, I first moved to Manhattan; two years later, I transplanted to Washington, DC. Next, I jettisoned to Ireland to live in Dublin. Now, my home is in Limerick, Ireland. With each of these moves, I …
Women face more barriers than men in almost all aspects of our day-to-day lives. And since money makes the world go round, it’s no surprise that financial stress affects up to 80% of women, according to a Fidelity poll.

Not only has it helped guide my …
Our families significantly shape who we are as people. The way we’re raised impacts the way we think and the attitudes we have. Family beliefs, however, are not tattooed onto your brain. Almost all of us differ from our family’s worldviews in more ways than one. This is to be expected, as time keeps moving us forward and popular attitudes …
Sleep is incredibly important to your health. Getting enough of it improves your immune system, lifts your mood, and can help prevent heart disease, just to name a few benefits.

Everybody can start a blog, as long as you have some basic computer skills. A couple of years ago, blogging was all about expressing your views, and people would actually take the time to read your stories. Today, things have changed a bit, as you need to blog about what people are actively looking for. However, this doesn’t mean that it …
Things are so much simpler when you’re younger. You don’t have to think about paying bills or making appointments; even relationships are easier.
