Editors Note: This post is by Lindsay Nichols. I LOVED learning her tips and tricks for saving on back to school. I have a love/hate relationship with the month of August. I love the dog days of summer – enjoying family time with the kids, the smell of freshly cut grass, swimming under the hot summer sun and eating popsicles… Read More
*You’re going to want to bookmark this and refer to it again later. It’s by far the most detailed and comprehensive free guide I’ve ever seen on flipping furniture. I love testing side hustles. And for a lot of people, an extra $500 per month is life changing. Considering 60% of Americans couldn’t cover a $1,000 emergency expense, I wanted… Read More

This post is sponsored, but all opinions are my own. My first ever yoga experience was hilarious. For some reason, I decided hot yoga was a good place to begin. I went in with my rolled up purple yoga mat, commitment that I was going to stretch, and meditate (never mind that I could barely touch my toes.) So I… Read More
