About Me

Hello, Welcome to my little corner of the world!

So you made it to my blog. What do I usually talk about? Well, a few things. People are constantly telling me to narrow my niche, but I am a lover of so many things it’s hard to choose just one to chat about. Here you will find a mix of fitness, travel (lots of Disney!), and family-related posts if I had to choose three top headlines. I try to rotate between them so no one feels left out, but I totally understand that not every post is for every person.

A little about what I do. I love to share information with my readers. I am a nerd at heart and a perpetual student, so anything I can do to help someone else along makes me happy. Two things, in particular, I enjoy teaching about would be Disney/travel, and self-improvement related topics. I launched my first eBook in 2016, The Average Girls Guide to Living an Above Average Life, and am so proud of my accomplishment. I hope it inspires at least one person, and I always say that if one person can benefit from the things I have had to go through, then it’s all worth it! I have also created some free fitness and goal tracking printables, as well as a free e-course on how to start your own blog. I also created an e-guide for bloggers and influencers on how to work with brands and make money. 

More about me. I used to go by Running with Sass®, which I started back in November of 2009. My blog has evolved a lot since then though. Back in the day (gee I sound old) I stuck with my name and mainly blogging about running for years, but eventually decided I wanted to branch out and blog about other things, which is how Through Heather’s Looking Glass was born.

This blog started as a way to document my training and the beginning of my distance running journey. Never did I imagine it would turn into what it is today, and never did I think I would have run as many races as I have, including four full marathons and nearly 30 half marathons. I was the girl in high school who thought one lap around the track was “long-distance running.”

I have truly enjoyed the friendships, advice, and love I have gotten over the year. I love encouraging, helping, and being there for others, and while I by no means have it all together, I love helping other people through my life experiences. I love God, my husband, my daughter Emma Kate (born 9/24/14), my family, my furbaby Bella, being active, watching TV, text messaging, blogging, being outside, reading, chocolate, Disney World, cruises, and many other things. I love meeting new people and making new friends, so please don’t be shy!

You can always reach me at heather@heatherslookingglass.com or DM me on Instagram. PR invites and brand collabs are always welcome! I am happy to send my media kit and rate information.

Less than one month. It’s crazy to think that so Less than one month. It’s crazy to think that somewhere I have spent a large portion of my adult life will not be where I live in less than a month. It’s scary y’all, the unknown. New places, new school, new church, hopefully new friends? 
Moving out of our comfort zones into the unfamiliar isn’t for the faint of heart. But we know that God will be with us and we can’t wait for this new adventure and how He will provide just what we need. 

We are doing all our favorite local things over the next few weeks before we go! 💜

My dress was sent by @joyfolie and I love it!

What a fun festival at @visitowa! (Ad) We are he What a fun festival at @visitowa! (Ad) 

We are here for the @gchaballoonfestival, and today is the last day. This festival is HUGE with tons of food, shopping, music, and of course, balloons! 

We had so much fun walking around last night, and today we have already been through once and are now at the amusement park, #tropicfalls. 

There is so much to do here at #downtownowa and the amusement park! Not to mention, the indoor/outdoor waterpark open at the end of NEXT MONTH!! 🎉

If you are heading to gulf shores or Orange Beach this summer, plan to stop for the day at #Visitowa, you won’t be sorry!

I love a good festival! 🌸 Right now at @dollywo I love a good festival! 🌸 Right now at @dollywood the Flower & Food festival is happening and it is SO much fun!

Not only are all the flowers beautiful, but you can sample so many different yummy foods as you walk around the park. I’m quite the picky eater, but there were still plenty of things for me to try. I even wrote a blog post for the Dollywood Insiders blog all about what I chose to eat complete with photos and reviews. Click this pic in my profile to check it out! 

I still can’t believe I will be a LOCAL in ONE MONTH. Pinch me! Who wants to meet up for a day of Dollywood fun?!

Happy Mother’s Day! 🌸 So thankful that God Happy Mother’s Day! 🌸 

So thankful that God entrusted me with this little spitfire to take care of. She makes me want to be a better person every day! Also so thankful for my mom and all the sacrifices she made for me over the years. Now that I am a mom I understand so much more all the things she gave up for me. Forever grateful! 

Also, I know this day is not easy for everyone. I have several friends who have lost their mamas this year. I see you and am praying for you. 💜
