What's In A Name

Part of what I love about the name of this blog - as well as my developing health coaching practice - is the name. It's something that I had thought about for a while, and something that, ultimately, was decided by what I wanted my target market to be for said health coaching. (That, and it was what was available when I went looking for a domain name.)

I tossed around a ton of ideas for a good few weeks, but eventually landed on The Unveiled Life. It just worked, you know? It had the subtle bridal/wedding reference I was looking for, and it made sense with the health coaching aspect of my life.  I was actually also incredibly inspired by my friend Sara's blog - Fit for a Bride - and the relevance and catchiness of her title in relation to her content. (Btw, please go check her stuff out!!)

Side note: Sara has been an amazing person to bounce ideas off of, as we are both pretty much working towards similar goals with our blogs and websites. Health, fitness, weddings.. a few of our most favorite things! (Bonus perk is that we got to spend a ton of time together to chat about it all two weeks ago in Texas.. more on that soon!)

One of my goals is to have the feel of this site to be that of complete honesty - to be life, unveiled. As some of my past posts have already shown, there are high points and low points, good days and bad days. We're all human, and that means we're all real. And to me, that's where the real beauty lies. When we can be honest with ourselves and content with what we have in front of us - that's a good life. I might even go so far as to say, an unveiled life..?! ;)

And so, in the spirit of living said life, I'm starting a fun little series - "Sporadic Sunday". In other words, a few completely random, but completely honest statements about me and my life. Think of it as being akin to that fun little "Hey, it's ok.." column in Glamour magazine (that *might* be my most favorite part of the magazine most months...).

I'm 28, married, have four furbabies.. but I still love to go out and dance like I did in my early 20's. It's actually more fun for me now because I don't need to worry about the whole dating scene and can just have a good time!

I love wine. I mean, I really  love wine. And typically have a glass or two most every night. And maybe even a bit earlier in the day on the weekends. And I'm ok with it. Yum.

I gave up both red meat and pork for Lent about 12 years ago and haven't looked back since. My weakness? Hot dogs. So classy, I know. But OMG they are so good!

Any random tidbits you'd care to share about yourself today? Like.. what's your guilty pleasure food?? I know you have one!
