About Me

Hi, I’m Steven — welcome to my corner of the internet.

I was born and raised in the Deep South, where food is rich, flavorful, and full of tradition — but not always the healthiest. Growing up, I struggled with depression, and over time I discovered that nourishing my mind, body, and spirit was essential for finding balance and joy.

This blog is where I share the positive, healthy practices I’ve embraced as coping mechanisms and lifestyle choices. From exploring wholesome yet delicious recipes inspired by my Southern roots, to diving into travel adventures that fuel my curiosity and growth, this space reflects my journey toward living fully.

After moving from the South to the mountains of Colorado, my love for travel blossomed. Now, I combine my passions: cooking food that’s both healthy and flavorful, exploring new destinations, and nurturing physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional wellbeing.

My hope is that my journey can inspire yours — to eat well, travel far, and live with intention.
