		<description><![CDATA[1. Running decreases your risk of heart disease. Running improves your cholesterol and blood pressure, ensuring that you have a healthy heart. It&#8217;s been shown to reduce your risk of heart disease by nearly 45%.   2. Running can reduce anxiety and stress. Running releases endorphins, which are chemicals that promote positivity and happiness. When you run, your brain releases these chemicals, allowing you to not feel so stressed, even when you&#8217;re getting in a great workout.   3. You can run anywhere!

		<description><![CDATA[Approximately one week after graduating college, I did what countless adults warned me not to do: I got a puppy. Though my sweet French bulldog puppy Ada stole my heart with seconds, I quickly realized what all my elders had been talking about. It was harder than I thought to balance caring for a new puppy and impressing at my new job. For a while, I thought to myself, well this was a genius idea. But, somewhere along the way, I realized that compromising for my dog while fulfilling responsibilities had delivered the perfect work/life balance. These little tips that Ada taught me can help you find the right balance [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sure, I wrote a budget when I was in college – then glanced at it again a few months later and laughed. Even though my bank account was usually just a handful of change above empty by the end of the month, I could always survive off of whatever was in the fridge or convince my mom to send me a Starbucks gift card or two. But, when you’re on your own, there are suddenly many more important expenses that need to be taken care of on a regular basis: rent, insurance, and, yes, food. Budgeting is somewhat of a necessary evil, but, if you follow these easy tips, you [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I usually consider leggings and a sweater a perfectly acceptable outfit. In fact, you’d have a good chance of finding me out on a Friday night in just that. Hey, no judgment, right? But not at work. I feel like work is another dimension of higher expectations, where you never know who you’re going to meet or where you’ll end up by the end of the day. Sure, you could say the same thing about going out with friends on the weekend, but if I meet someone special then, they’ll have to see me in my casual glory sooner or later, right? Work companions won’t. But at my new job, [&#8230;]]]></description>
