Letter from Chicpea: The True Story of ChicpeaJC, PT 2
If you’re just joining us, make sure you read Part One first. To be honest, the reason this story is in two parts is because writing these posts, these honest from the heart letters to my readers, is extremely emotionally draining. When I type, I re-live those moments. I re-live the pain, the happiness, the […]

Journey to Abs PT2: Everything You Need to Know About Dieting…
It doesn’t work. GOT YOU. Did you really think I was going to promote dieting as a healthy way to lose weight? This is not Self magazine. This is real life shit. A few weeks ago, I launched “Journey to Abs” and the response has been amazing. I got so many messages from women and […]

Don’t panic, though! Though a plateau can feel like a roadblock, it’s actually just a small detour. Think of it as […]

Why I DON’T give two shits about cursing in front of my kids
Before you come at me with pitchforks and fire torches, I should say and I repeat: “I am NOT the Mom of the Year.” If you have read any of my other articles, you would already know that. We tell our kids to “use your words” so it’s only fitting that I use mine. And […]

The world is full of amazing and wonderful things to do! Likewise, so is Jersey City!

This is an “I just downloaded the app now what the hell do I do?” tutorial. Personally, when learning about an application, I love to figure it out on my own, but everyone learns differently.
