If I’m honest, there are times my fingers touch the Instagram app before I feel like I even know what I’m doing. Do you know the feeling? It’s like, it draws you in. And why? Is it FOMO? Is it the idea of being numbed out? Or is it that we’re actually longing for the …

I’ve done a couple posts like this before, in which I write about why “everyone deserves a friend like___.” Today, I’m talking about a friend like Brooke. Brooke is one of my co-workers at Pure JBK, and has quickly become a close friend. From the day I started working at Pure, Brooke made me feel …
