Mermaid of the Month: Tracy Mullen
This year, I decided to forget about my journalism degree and learn how to master the art of life through my own personal experience. Sure I say it loud and proud now, but after making the ballsy move to become a college-dropout, I was filled with a sense of shame when friends asked me how […]
Live Every Week Like Shark Week
Isn’t it ironic how we all have an undying fascination for sharks, yet they are one of the most feared creatures on our planet?

The 10 Lessons of Life I’ve Learned Since Moving to Hawaii
Airplanes are a peculiar kind of situation — you’re neither in the place you’ve been, nor in the place you’re going.

Two years ago, as I traveled through the clouds in route to […]
Papaya Parfait Breakfast Bowl

It’s The Little Things In Life
Like most days in the life of Gennah, it all started with a run… Sorry I’m not sorry for blowing up your social media but, It’s no secret I’ve been trying to embody #thespartanmermaid lifestyle.
