Roadtrip Recap: Where We Went and What We Did

@justhighlo November 13, 2018 No Comments

There are a lot of shitty things about taking a road trip. It’s uncomfortable to be in the car for hours at a time, sometimes for several days. There is a lot of crappy, not-so-great-for-you-food because it’s kind of hard to travel with enough salad for three days in a cooler. Which leads to digestive issues. Then there’s sleeping in strange places. And not getting enough sleep because you want to hit the road early

The Ultimate Multi-day Road Trip Preparation Guide

@justhighlo October 31, 2018 No Comments

I don’t mean to brag but I’m kind of an expert road trip co-pilot. My husband and I make almost all of the trips we take together via car. Actually, of all the trips we’ve taken together, only one was not by car. He’s a bit fearful of flying, and I don’t really blame him. Road trips are long and boring and hard on your body. But they’re also fun and exciting and it’s a

How to Translate Your Cannabis Business to Instagram

@justhighlo September 18, 2018 No Comments

One struggle all businesses have, in the cannabis space or not, is trying to figure out how to visually translate their brand into an Instagram friendly format. As a cannabis or cannadjacent business, you have additional struggles with censorship, making it even more important for you to think outside the box when it comes to using Instagram to connect with potential customers and lovers of your product. In this article, I’m going to cover some

The Complete Guide to Content Batching

@justhighlo September 11, 2018 No Comments

I have a secret. I do not fret when it comes time to publish new blog posts. I can post two a week every week for at least the next 3 weeks. How can I be so confident, you’re probably wondering while maybe also hoping that I fail a little bit (it’s ok, I get it)? I do a little thing called content batching. WTF is content batching? Well, content batching is pretty much what

Stigma Activewear Limited Run Sports Bra Review

@justhighlo September 7, 2018 No Comments

I love a good independent brand. So earlier this year when I stumbled upon Stigma Activewear, I literally couldn’t wait to lose enough weight to justify buying new workout gear. It’s hard to run when your leggings are exposing your very sweaty undies to the rest of the fitness center. It’s a great way to meet your neighbors. Since then, I’ve been pretty dedicated to their brand (they even made me a brand ambassador). So

Why It’s Smart to Rent Your Clothes

@justhighlo August 30, 2018 No Comments

After losing over 40 pounds over the last year and change, I was in desperate need of an entirely new wardrobe. My closet was a shell of its former self as I had to give most of my clothes away. No point in keeping things that I don’t plan on wearing again. And if I do plan on wearing them again, I hope that it’s far enough in the future that it would all look

How to Choose Email Marketing Software

@justhighlo August 28, 2018 No Comments

After getting my Instagram account disabled recently (that is a story for another day), I have been even more focused on building my email list. There are a lot of great reasons to have a mailing list, but the most important one, quite frankly the only one that matters: you own that list. If every single one of your social networking sites went down tomorrow, could you still keep in touch with your followers? I

Finding Motivation After a Setback

@justhighlo August 23, 2018 No Comments

The end of May and the entire month of June were pretty rough for me. I unknowingly sprained my ankle by stepping off a sidewalk curb the wrong way and then further worsened the injury when my cousin challenged me to do the Manitou Springs Incline with her. My sprain caused me no pain. It just felt like it needed to crack or something. That’s why I didn’t think much about doing 2000 vertical feet

Not Everyone’s Going to Like Your Message and They Shouldn’t

@justhighlo August 21, 2018 No Comments

The biggest trap any entrepreneur falls into is thinking they and their business can please and serve everyone. You can’t. And you shouldn’t want to. Pleasing everyone is boring. Especially when it comes to social media and creating digital content like blog posts, YouTube videos, and digital downloads. It is one of the hardest things to mentally overcome, because for many entrepreneurs their business is them and their life, and we all want to be
