Hi! It's been a pleasure working with you. Sure thing! I'm born and raised in Austin, Texas, and yes the country in me does show from time to time. I just got an advertising job at Facebook, so that's been really exciting for me. I get to work from home, so I'm still able to travel as I please since traveling is a huge passion of mine. I've always been an avid health and wellness advocate, but just recently I've re-worked my entire routine, which I'm excited to share with you!
Okay, so we'll jump right into the juicy bit. The secret we're all keen to learn about is finding balance. What exactly do you mean by 'balance' and how can the average 9-to-5 person benefit from finding their own balance in life?
