My skin has cleared mainly but some parts where there’s a flare healing or a few bumps healing I just keep scratching and I don’t know why because it’s not itchy. In fact when I don’t have any flares I feel really weird and actually start finding areas to scr...

I think I have some mental hang ups about my size. A few years ago I felt motivated and worked out. It lasted about 2 months. I did look slightly better but my gains weren't really the great and I couldn't increase my lifts at all. All in all it was unsuccess...

I'm so sorry to hear you're dealing with this. Ghosting from clients is one of the most frustrating challenges in our line of work.

So this is going to sound silly but I have noticed everywhere we go (preschool, gymnastics etc) we are always the last ones to leave the parking lot. I’ve started to dread going to more than I e place with the kids because it takes so long for them to get back...

I don’t know if I’m looking for advice, to rant, or just to vent… probably all of it. I’m trying to figure out what went wrong, if I can recover, and honestly, if I even should try. My wife and I have been together for 13 years. We have a 9-year-old together....

I'm really glad you brought this up. Struggling with self-confidence is such a common experience, but that doesn't make it any easier.
