To be fair, some giveaways are groups of like-minded creators who band together to award a reader. In giveaways of over 15 people, usually not the case. Another day, another massive loop giveaway. Maybe it’s a Luggage Set or a trip to the Maldives? The madness has gotten out of hand and it’s about time someone on the inside tells you what that’s really about. . .
Even after working out consistently for over a year, I still don’t understand when people tell me that they crave a workout. The only thing I’ve ever craved is chocolate and boba tea, but somehow I’m in the minority. Do I feel guilty missing a workout? Sure. But do I crave one – eh, that’s a stretch?

You’ve seen the Instagram photos from your favorite brand, blogger or photographer and think to yourself, “Gee! Only if I had a better camera!” but the truth is that the camera you own is only a small part of the photography experience. I’d say that the composition of a good photo is 30% equipment, 50% knowing the basics of photography, and 20% editing. While you may not be ready to invest the thousands, yes, thousands into a full frame camera and multiple lenses – you can make a world of a difference by learning how to use your camera on manual settings…

That’s when I realized that if I truly wanted a vacation for from it all, I needed to leave my phone at home…
Millennials get a bad reputation for just about everything, but one place that we can certainly do better is with money management.
