5 Ways to be a Tourist in Your Own City this Fall
Dallas is an incredible city and I feel so lucky to call it home. We have a great food scene, beautiful neighborhoods, and arguably some of the best shopping. And though I love the hustle of New York City and San Francisco, this is a perfect place for us to call home. But sometimes, Austin and I struggle to get creative when it comes to dates or things to do on the weekend. We have our typical "dinner and a movie", which I honestly love, but there are times when you want to mix things up a bit. ...
Lessons Learned from the Self-Employed: Planning to take your business or blog full time?
Ever since launching our Lesson's Learned Series, we've been getting more and more questions over entrepreneurial and blogging topics.

But extremely valid and one worth discussing. So here's my take. ...

Summer Workwear under $150
I can still remember feeling grateful that as a teacher we had summers off, mainly because dressing for work in the summer can be tricky. Even warm spring or early fall days in Texas meant getting creative with what I wore to school. (If you live in the South, you know what I'm talking about!) And even though I no longer have to go into a traditional setting, I do have business-related work year-round and the need for summer work wear. ...
How I Overcame my Fear of Public Speaking
In the past, the thought of public speaking used to make my stomach turn into knots. Most people find that surprising since I was a classroom teacher for 6 years. But we have to remember—I taught 5 and 6 year olds. It's a little different when it's a presentation in front of 1000 adults. Right? ...
Introducing Our New Wellness Series + my favorite Smoothie Recipe
Happy weekend! Today, we are launching our new wellness series: Weekend Wellness.
While there's plenty of resources out there on healthy living, I want to share my personal journey towards better health. I want to live a more healthy lifestyle, but I don't always know how. I'm not a fitness or nutrition expert, and frankly, sometimes I don't even know where to start. Maybe you guys fall into the same boat. If you do, you're in good company with this series! The goal with this series is to call on wellness experts and seek their advice on healthy living to all of us here at TTD. You can expect upcoming posts like 3 Steps to Toned Arms or My Favorite Healthy Snacks — this series will cover it all. And if you live and breathe health and wellness, please send us your recommendations either by commenting below or commenting on Instagram. I'll be sharing notable reader tips on my Instagram Stories and highlight them throughout this series. ...
