This is not a list of podcasts that are being promoted everywhere and you are tired of hearing about. This is a list of podcasts that have me hooked. They are compelling stories with binge-worthy episodes. Happy Face Summary: "For Melissa Moore, 1995 was a nightmare. That’s the year the…

Four Things I’m Working On

FEATURED

Last year brought some of the biggest changes in my life so far. Throughout the upheaval, I resolved to make my mental and emotional health a top priority. However, that has not always been the case. Changing 28+ years of habits and patterns is challenging …

Arizona never struck me as a beautiful destination, that is, until I got there. I booked my trip for late February (I wasn’t ready for Arizona summer heat) and it was perfect timing. I left behind ten degree weather and a foot of snow in …

  • My idea of a web developer has always been some dude with glasses in a cubicle who is a huge Star Wars fan with little to no social skills outside of talking code. Sometimes it feels a bit weird to call myself a developer because I don’t fit into that mold … at all. I’m a WordPress developer who lives in the Rocky Mountains, on a dirt road, in a log cabin, with four dogs and two cats. I heat my home with a wood stove and and love to cook. I’m a huge bookworm and I’ve watched Gilmore Girls at least 10 times. And yet … I love to code. Always have. I taught myself HTML and CSS when I was 13 and spent 6 months last year learning a back end languages at Denver University. Sometimes my life feels like a huge contradiction. I’m surrounded by nature and the immensity of it - the beauty and the extreme weather that comes with living on top of a canyon. But, I also love this other part of my life … the part that has always loved spending copious amounts of time on the computer creating. There is no point I’m trying to make or some grand, wise, revelation to share. Just that I love these two aspects of my life that kinda seem opposite of one another - I enjoy a blend of both. This kinda life suites me. #westcodigital #webdesigner #webdeveloper #wordpressdesigner #wordpressdeveloper #smallbiztips #mycreativelife #remotework #workremotely #womenintech #womenwhocode #denverco #boulderco #goldenco #coloradodesigner #coloradowebdesign #workfromwherever #womenwhohustle
  • Did my *first* live video on Facebook today, ah! I talked about what you'll need in place BEFORE you start a website redesign to make sure your project goes smoothly. I'm thinking about doing these Website Wednesday videos bi-monthly. Topics could include anything website-related like... ➖ ✅ should I go with WordPress or SquareSpace? ✅ how to write website copy that converts ✅ where to source photos for your new website ➖ etc. Comment below if you'd like to see more content like this! A link to the video is in my bio. #webdesign #webdesigner #webdeveloper #webdevelopment #wordpress #wordpressdesigner #womenintech #learntocode #girlswhocode #remotework #workfromhome #denverco #boulderco #goldenco #coloradodesigner #coloradowebdesign #workfromwherever #womenwhohustle
  • Working outside on the deck today and trying to soak up all that sun before the snow comes to Colorado! Last year our first snowfall here in the mountains was early October. 👀 ➖ Here I am working on a Website Content Workbook for a client which is a super easy and streamlined way that I guide my clients through the process of creating content for your website. Peep at my stories of you want to have a look! ➖ #westcodigital #webdesign #webdesigner #webdeveloper #webdevelopment #wordpress #wordpressdesigner #womenintech #learntocode #girlswhocode #remotework #workfromhome #denverco #boulderco #goldenco #coloradodesigner #coloradowebdesign #workfromwherever #womenwhohustle #logcabinliving #coalcreekcanyon #cabinlife
  • What is making you happy right now? Mine looks a lot like this - a road straight into the heart of the mountains. It also looks like my new robot vacuum (hello #dogmom life), cinnamon spiced coffee, and adhering to my bedtime consistently this last week. Here's to another great week of 9pm bedtimes! #babygrandma
  • Breathe. Trying to remind myself that there are more important things in life than running myself ragged trying to be everything to everyone while staying on top of laundry, keeping the house clean, eating healthy, getting enough sleep, and making money. Life is stressful, gotta give myself some more grace. Thanks to @danielle_conyers for this awesome photo of the sunset and rain storm in action. #whyilovecolorado #visitcolorado #coloradogram #colorfulcolorado #coloradolive #coloradotography #viewcolorado #outtherecolorado #colorado_creative #naturalcolorado #wildwest #mountains #mountainscape #liveoutdoors #adventure #weekendadventure #stayandwader #viewsfromcolorado #coloradosunset #northtablemountain #goldenco
  • The air is starting to turn to a crisp in the evenings up here in the mountains. Thank goodness @target brought back the pumpkin spice coffee pods just in time. This summer has flown by, but I'm *always* ready for autumn. 🥰 ➖ #cabinlife #wildcabins #ilovecabins #cabinvibes #thecabinchronicles #coalcreekcabin #cabinlust #cabinsdaily #cabindiaries #mountainliving #coloradolive #coloradolove #colorfulcolorado #whyilovecolorado #cologradogram #mountainlove #visitcolorado #wanderout #cabin #cabininthewoods #loghome #intothewild #woods
  • I want to know: how did you get into what you are doing? What first sparked your interest? I first got into coding when I was an awkward 13 year old teaching herself HTML and CSS on a Dell desktop. I started out making designs for Diaryland on Angelfire (and if you get those references, let’s be best friends). I loved being able to create something out of thin air. To me coding is part problem solving and part creativity - two things I love. I was hooked. What is something in your life that has caught your attention? What makes you excited about it? #westcodigital #webdesigner #webdeveloper #smallbiztips #femaleentrepreneurs #cabinliving #workfromhome #remotework #workfromanywhere #coloradomountains #mountainliving #wordpressdesigner #wordpressdeveloper #womenintech #womenwhocode #girlswhocode #learntocode
  • Being resilient does not come without facing challenges. Without going through hard times and surviving. And a view like this doesn't come without 7 mosquito bites, three protein bars, and running out of water. 🤷🏼‍♀️ _ _ #maroonbells #apsenco #aspencolorado #whyilovecolorado #visitcolorado #coloradogram #colorfulcolorado #coloradolive #coloradotography #viewcolorado #wanderout #getoutstayout #outtherecolorado #colorado_creative #naturalcolorado #wildwest #mountains #mountainscape #liveoutdoors #adventure #weekendadventure #stayandwader #viewsfromcolorado
