Sarah Stevenson, known to her followers as Sarah's Day, started her Youtube in 2013. Initially, Stevenson started her vlog as a means to keep up with her own fitness goals, but it soon developed into an empire, with a strong following that refer to themselves as #sezzysquad.

Stevenson is based out of Australia, like fellow fitness mogul Kayla Itsines, however she stands apart with her own approach to promoting a healthy lifestyle. Stevenson's brute honesty and tendency to eat one too many Blue Dinosaur bars in a single sitting demonstrates that she's just like anyone else on a fitness journey.

Four years after her Youtube debut, Stevenson now has close to a half a million subscribers and over 313 thousand followers on Instagram. It all comes down to what makes her so relatable and how her attitude towards healthy living will be a great addition to achieving your fitness goals.

Her Non- Aggressive Approach to Health.

If you're fearing another health blog that's going to make you feel guilty for your own lifestyle choices, 'Sarah's Day' is not something to worry about. Stevenson does follow a certain diet and fitness routine, but she is the first to admit that it's not for everyone.

A lot of her dietary choices also come from what her body needs. Stevenson is very open about her health issues surrounding her gut and her hormonal acne, so she knows what works best to keep her body feeling healthy. It's time to stop thinking about "diets" as a punishment and instead realize that some nutrition choices surround very real health concerns.

She follows a paleo diet.

Stevenson often expresses her success in following a paleo diet. A paleo diet consists of consuming vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, meat, fish and a certain list of fats. It doesn't allow for consumption of dairy products, soy, grains or beans. Important rule: if cavemen had easy access to it, it's probably paleo safe.

Since a paleo diet is so important to Stevenson's everyday life, it's only natural that she mentions it often in her vlogs and on Instagram. However she also makes suggestions on substitutes for her way of living.

Her Honesty. #GRUBLIFE

When Stevenson makes a "What I Eat In The Day" vlog, she doesn't hide anything that may be perceived as "unhealthy." It's refreshing to see a fitness influencer that is just as obsessed with chocolate and over-eating trail mix as the rest of us.

She doesn't wear make up to her training sessions, nor does she edit out struggles of her workouts. She'll start recording first thing when she wakes up, pre-coffee (long black with just a dash of almond milk), and often refers to her relatable "sweatpants and workout top" looks as the #grublife. When the camera is on, she appears to be the same person as when it's off.

She recently released her new Ebook, Sweat It To Shred It, but she understands not everyone can afford it.

To make her health and fitness tips a full time job, it's understandable that Stevenson would move past partnerships with brands to produce her very own product. In May, she released her online Ebook "Sweat It To Shred It" that outlines an eight-week fitness plan meant to assist a variety of fitness goal levels.

At $69.95 AUD, Stevenson knows that not all of her follows can afford it, or that they're ready to commit that much time and money into their fitness routine. She continues to post free workouts her to vlog for those still on the fence about purchasing her ebook.

Paleo Protein balls anyone?

If you watch more than one Sarah's Day video, you will probably experience an intense jealousy for whatever Stevenson prepared. Her kitchen cabinets and fridge are seriously #goals.

Now, you can purchase protein balls that are #sezzyapproved. In a collaboration with Health Lab Stevenson created a coconut-cacao protein ball mix that is paleo and vegan approved. Stevenson also shared a similar recipe to her health-lab-approved collaboration on her channel, in case you just can't wait to try them.

#Sezzysquad

If her long list of achievements and relatable attributes aren't enough to convince you to visit Sarah's Day on Youtube, let her loyal followers be proof that she knows what she's talking about.

Whether she's partnering with Cotton On Body for a meet up or releasing her ebook, the followers that refer to themselves as 'Sezzy's Squad' wait in line for hours and show up with gifts for Stevenson. Most often, they're bringing Stevenson a long black with almond milk from the local cafe, just how she likes it.

28 Daily Thoughts of College Students

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
