Reese Witherspoon's Hello Sunshine brand has done an exceptional job at bringing book clubs into the 21st century, and as someone who has a big goal to get back into reading this year, it's been a great relationship.

be kind.
I'm tired of just seeing words like "ignorance, bigot, hypocritical, and greedy" come across my news feeds. I'm ready to showcase the compassion, acceptance, and love that I know the majority of this country has.
self·ish
I truly can only sum up this experience in one word: incredible. I know so many of you think I'm insane, but you can't understand how much time I was wasting on these sites. Aimlessly scrolling for what probably totaled hours of every day, and for what? To keep up with people who I never speak to? To see what new meme Carley is sharing with her friends? To receive another pointless chain message? To boost your ego by double tapping that IG photo? If the shoe fits..
love & miss communication
In a world so reliant on technology, it's crazy to imagine cutting it from your life. I may be a little more shocked with the concept because of my professional background. In a world where social media is a key piece of every strategic marketing campaign, it's almost impossible to unplug.
I Took a Social Media Diet…
.. and truth be told I learned SO MUCH. 1. We truly bitch about everything. I'm sorry, that may be too blunt for some of you.

One of the biggest things we can do for one another is tell our stories and support those we have the chance to work with.
Don’t Judge a Fox by his Hustle
I, by no means, consider myself a Disney expert. I’ve never been to the parks, there’s quite a long list of movies I haven’t seen & I’d say the most of my childhood Disney experiences came from the TV channel. Seriously. Special place in my heart for Hannah Montana (RIP,) The Suite Life and Lizzie … Continue reading Don’t Judge a Fox by his Hustle
Kristin & Growing Younger
I haven't written a basicblonde post since...a long time ago. I actually received an email today from WordPress notifying me that my domain would be renewed in 60 days and I was like ok, cool. Even though I only write once in a blue moon anymore, I'm keeping it because knowing I've at least invested … Continue reading Kristin & Growing Younger
One Person.
With statistics like these, how are we supposed to be that one? How are we supposed to make a change, make a difference and prove to not only the world but also to ourselves that we as one single individual matter?
Thoughts We Think, Sentences We Speak
Think of the raw emotion, think of the verbal thoughts and push forward to create a life where the thoughts that we think and the sentences that we speak make a difference in someone else’s world, regardless.
