What’s in My Hospital Bag for Outpatient Visits

With a chronic illness, I spend a lot of time at the hospital. I keep a small bag packed for my medical appointments. Find out what's in my hospital bag, plus tips for assembling your own! | Belle Brita

With Crohn’s Disease, I spend way too much time at the hospital. That said, I’ve been quite fortunate in my Crohn’s journey. Only once did I stay overnight in a hospital, back in January 2010. Otherwise all of my medical tests, treatments, and other visits have allowed me to return home! Even so, it’s not uncommon… [Read More]

The SEO Mistake Lifestyle Bloggers Don’t Know They’re Making

I see lifestyle bloggers make the same SEO mistake over and over. If you don't know how to use nofollow links--you're probably making the same SEO blunder! | Belle Brita

I’m in quite a few blogging groups on Facebook. At least once a week, I come across a post that looks something like this. PAID BLOGGING OPP! Do you accept pre-written blog content, or are you willing to write about a specific brand? I’m connected to several industry leaders in these basic niches. Drop your… [Read More]

September 2017 Goals // August Recap

Every month, I reflect on the previous month and set goals for the new one. These are my goals for September 2015. | Belle Brita

Every new month feels like a chance to start over, to start anew any goals unmet from the month before. New seasons in particular feel like a new start. Fall might not officially start for a few more weeks, but the beginning of September feels like fall. September 1st is the day Hogwarts students climb… [Read More]

Instagram Growth Strategies: From 0 to 5000 Instagram Followers

Which Instagram growth strategies work? Follow along as I build 3 separate Instagram accounts by 5,000 followers each. | Belle Brita

More than a year ago, I shared how I grew my Instagram account from 1,000 to 10,000 followers in 6 months. That account now has over 30,000 Instagram followers. However, there’s something to be said for starting a brand-new account to see what Instagram growth strategies work best. For that reason, I’m chronicling the journey… [Read More]

White Supremacy in America: a History Lesson for White Christians

The public showing of white supremacy in Charlottesville rightfully disturbed most Americans. However, this should only surprise anyone who has ignored American history. | Belle Brita

Like many of my fellow white Christian Americans, I’ve been horrified the last few days watching the riots in Charlottesville, Virginia. There’s something quite chilling about modern men carrying the Nazi flag. But that doesn’t compare to the act of domestic terrorism. How else would you describe someone intentionally driving a car into a crowd… [Read More]
