Turning off and relaxing is probably the most important thing that I do for myself. In the meantime, I am hyper-organized and try to make a schedule for every day down to the quarter hour (no joke!).

In four years at Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I moved up the ranks until I became the director of sales and lead a team of almost 40 people. So random and I hated it! I went from there to an executive assistant at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. My first job in New York was as a sales assistant at a bridal magazine. What was your career background? I’d love to hear about how you got where you are now. ![]() I am so thrilled for you to read all of her advice! She runs her blog, her own store, works at Nourish Snacks, and still manages to have a social life. Whenever I read her blog I learn something new because she covers everything from outfits, healthy recipes, and health and wellness advice to interior design, blogging tips, and entertaining.
