About Me

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by my small corner of the internet. I am Robyn, and I love to run and live a fun and (mostly) healthy lifestyle! As long as chocolate is included...

Loved growing up in the 90's

I was born in Columbus, Ohio and moved to Richmond, Virginia when I was in elementary school due to my father's job. I have lived here since, besides college. I loved swimming, singing and soccer growing up.

After high school, I went to the University of Virginia for my BA in Psychology and after my 2008 graduation, I went straight into graduate school at Virginia Commonwealth University where I earned my M.Ed. in Counselor Education. I have been a high school counselor in Chesterfield, Virginia since 2010. I started back at VCU for my PhD in the fall of 2014...I should be done...someday (2018).

College friends traveling the world!

In my free time I love running, reading, traveling, sleeping (I am NOT a night owl), eating, singing, and hanging out with friends. I try to eat healthy and listen to my body, but I don't typically follow any specific meal/diet plan (I have tried eating vegan, vegetarian, primal and low gluten). I mostly eat minimal meat and try to avoid processed foods and a lot of gluten. I had eating issues growing up, so I have come a long way and still focus on improving my wellness daily. I am by no means an expert! Exercise has always been easier for me than eating well all the time. I go by the 80/20 rule...which sometimes goes to 70/30 :)

I like to think I am pretty low-key overall and can keep myself entertained. That being said, I am an extrovert, have a bubbly personality and love to know random details of peoples' lives...hence this blog!

Sweaty after a run on the beach:)

I am single and dating and typically try to keep all that 'stuff' off the internet...but not always. Feel free to ask questions about what it's like being a 20-something in the 21st century dating scene. I've got great stories!

Thanks for stopping by:)
