Welcome

This is the brainchild (or lovechild, really) resulting from a moment of clarity on a 6-hour drive home from a relaxing long weekend at my grandparents’. In the middle of a conversation about what we wish we could do in life, and the values we wish we could focus on instead of selling our souls renting our souls out 40+ hours/week, we thought – why not? Why can’t we have all that? So, here we are, join us. We’re on a journey, an adventure, a scary new path that we hope leads us to the life we’ve imagined for ourselves. We want to share the parts of it we’ve already figured out (working out and eating real food), and the parts we’re working on (grabbing life by the balls and shaping it into the form we want), and all the trials and tribulations that come with dreams like ours. We hope we can offer inspiration and be friends in kind to any of you who have similar urges. We hope to also meet new people who have succeeded in achieving their dreams off the beaten path.

As for the part we’ve figured out already: we will focus on being active and maintaining a healthy lifestyle by choosing what we put in our body. We are both currently your typical ‘working professionals’ that have taken the time to fit in (mostly) daily CrossFit workouts, as well as preparing healthy GREAT tasting meals for ourselves. While it may require work, the pros outweigh the cons. If you want to feel great, achieve your goals, and just overall be a better human being then check us out and come along for the ride. Disclaimer: we’re not perfect, but we do know right from wrong.

We follow the Paleo diet (read more about it here, if you haven’t heard of it already), and we will share with you recipes that we have found and have created ourselves that are not only Paleo, but delicious. We know how hard it is to work 8 hours a day, only to come home and have to cook dinner, walk the dog, do laundry, prepare meals for the next day, etc., so trust us when we say it's DOABLE – you just have to choose to DO IT. Let’s be serious, it’s that easy.

Hope you like our blog and please feel free to contact us at any time throughout our journey together!
