Friday Finisher 7/12/13

Published: Jul 12, 2013 · Modified: Jan 13, 2020 by Rebecca Pytell · This post may contain affiliate links.

Hey! Happy Friday! I just have some fun and good reads and links for you to click on from the week. I seem to see a theme among them. This week was all about kindness and love for yourself it seems like. But that is always a good message to share! Enjoy!

SS Posts from the week:

Monday: Power Monday #1 Power Up

Tuesday: Jamaica Taste Great

Wednesday: Dear Summer...Please Slow Down

Thursday: Political Starting Point

Blog Posts I loved this week:

+ 144lbs: Why Female Athletes Should Toss the Scale and Get a New Perspective

That number means nothing when you are a powerful, fit, beautiful person!

+ Cut Yourself Some Slack

Show yourself some compassion, be kind and love yourself!

+ How to Stop Putting Other on a Pedestal

Stop comparing yourself and give yourself the credit you deserve!

+ Leaving Behind an Empty Life

Accept yourself and know you will not be perfect and that's OK!

+ Miami 70.3

Congrats on your goal Caitlin! This really inspired me to want to start running so I can one day compete in a triathlon! But I guess I should learn how to swim first too...haha!

+ You Never Know

Be kind because you never know what's going on in another person's life! And being kind could make their day!

A few things I loved about my week or am grateful for:

+ 2 yoga sessions

+ A week of some awesome strength training and Group Power

+ Tons of reading

+ Feeling more comfortable about this here new blog of mine

+ 33 days (and going strong) of being (eyebrow and eyelash) trich free

+ The warmth and love of a home and family

What did you love about you week?

Any awesome links or pins I should know about or that you care to share?

Literally, what are we doing if we’re not combining the two coziest quick breads into one? Naturally moist and sweet from real pumpkin and ripe bananas, which makes it perfect for a gluten-free recipe that needs extra moisture and an eggless recipe since pumpkin and banana are OG vegan egg replacements! This gluten-free pumpkin banana bread is a blank slate for any cozy add-ins you can dream of, but its simplicity is what makes it shine on its own! 😋🙌
