Hey, it's Quinn. It's been more almost two months since I've posted anything, but I hope you may remember me and this blog. My last month has been an absolute whirlwind, and you just know I'm going to tell you about it. I'm a pretty open book, so when I take a short interim, meantime, …

The Get Honest Project: Rediscovering My Voice
I've shied away from this calling for too long. Since I was a child, I've been drawn to the way language can create other worlds, how it transmits untold messages, and how it can become most anything at all. It's moldable and fluid. It was the hiding place I used to run to when other …

The Get Honest Project: Mindsets + Cycles
There is so much power in the way that we think. This has been proven in a variety of ways, we know this, and yet it can be so difficult to maintain a positive outlook. As creative people, we feel emotions so deeply, and revisit those emotions over again to pour them into our craft. …
The Get Honest Project: Unfinished Business
I was sitting in my room watching this past NCAA Gymnastics Championship when it hit me: so many of the seniors got a sendoff as they were exiting their time as an athlete in the sport. They were able to prepare themselves for the end. They were celebrated and hugged and got to stand on …

The Get Honest Project: The Root of the Intimidation
When I was ten years old, I went to Six Flags and desperately wanted to ride one of the big roller coasters. I measured myself against one of the height charts outside of the ride, and got assurance from my parents that I was just tall enough to go. However, the attendant working the height …

The Get Honest Project: Years Go By
The past few years have proven to be quite transformative. I wish I could say I have a documentation through my writing, but as I say in today's YouTube video, I got silent. It was my choice, and how I wish I could go back and make a different one. But my only option now …
Get Honest Project: I’ve Been Doing This Wrong…
I've been at this blogging thing for awhile. I thought I had it down pretty well by now. Well, turns out I've been doing it wrong... at least by my new standards. To date, I've put blogging in a box and placed so many restrictions on myself when it came to this outlet. I put …

Falling in Love with Fitness: March/April 2019
Well, these two months didn't quite go as planned...such is life, right? But even so, I think I accomplished a lot in these two months when it comes to my fitness journey, mostly in regard to learning what won't work for me. I think that it's super important to find the value in the "failure", …

Quick Thought: Like Wildflowers…
The last couple of weeks have been c r a z y and I feel like I've been running in circles just trying to get everything done. I've been struggling with sleeping well as of late (more on that in a future post), so I've just been trying to get through the days doing what …
Taking Risks 2019
This post has been a long time coming, and of course, as I've written it's become something totally different than I'd originally imagined. And I'm excited about that. The unknown hasn't been looking so scary lately; in fact, it's been looking like somewhere I want to be more often. After all, they say that there's …
