In my June Bucket List, I mentioned that I had the intention to “Do More. Share More.” and I have really taken that to heart. Mostly because I am fed up by witnessing that people can still get on national television and declare that systematic racism doesn’t exist. That the experience, oppression, and systemic degradation…
Happy October, Ambitious Fam! October is hands down one of my favorite months of the year because ‘Tis the season to be Fall-y! Even I can admit that the month means more than pumpkin-flavored treats. Maybe it’s the changing leaves or the crisp in the air, but there is a bit of magic to the…
Hey, Ambitious Fam! As I type this, I can’t help but steal glances at the rainbow pastel-colored sky as the sunsets. In fact, I paused (even though it would cause me to miss my self-inflicted deadline) to watch the waxing moon appear in the sky. I find solace in taking time to appreciate the quiet…
Happy First Day of Fall, Ambitious Fam! If you know me (or if you’ve been watching my Instagram stories lately haha), then you know that I am OBSESSED with Fall. It is hands down my favorite season and I tend to go a little overboard with all of the pumpkin-flavored eats and Fall activities. This…
Happy September, Ambitious Fam! I mentioned in my last post that I got a jump start on celebrating Fall by having my first pumpkin spice latte of the season (sorry not sorry) but I am beyond eager to enjoy all of the next things that the season has to offer. The change of season has…

Biscuits. Just writing about them is conjuring up the memory of Sunday morning breakfast at my grandmother’s. The delicious smell of them baking, the warmth of the bread, the distinguished tastes of them slathered in different jams, apple butter, or molasses (yes, while I would not consider myself particularly southern or country, my kin def…
I LOVE a wholesome super greens + grains bowl from CAVA. So many nutrients and colorful ingredients packed into one dish. It became a go-to meal when I first started adding more plant-based options to my diet (I always choose falafel as my protein). It took me until a few months ago to discover that…
Hey Ambitious Fam! Here with a seriously overdue August Bucket List post. I have already started working on the bucket list for this month (though the list is just now getting posted due to the hiatus mentioned my July Wrap Up post). Here is how I am growing into a better version of myself this…
Hey Ambitious Fam! Long time, no chat (at least on the blog front). One of the things that has really amazed about living through a pandemic is how quickly things can change. I shared a graphic in this week’s Ambitious Weekly newsletter (sign up here!) that I came across on Instagram about things that we…
