About

cropped-img_3646.jpg

I’m Hanna! I’m a business owner and professionally published model. As a former division I athlete, I continued a career into sports as I worked in Media Relations, Video Production and Game Operations for two NBA Teams: Washington Wizards and Indiana Pacers, and then as a Social Media and Account Manager for a sports branding company involved with artwork and branding for NCAA, NFL, and NBA, and now own my own design business. I met my cuban bf while on a shoot down in Miami at a gym he owned (so funny!) We both have a heart for travel, service, fitness, food, people, faith, new cultures, laughter, wine (more me than him), The Office, and so forth! My other love is my rescue, Simba, a pitbull mix who just happens to be the most loving pup! Most of the time I’m most likely exploring new cities, somewhere outdoors #doingthings, cooking up fun, healthy recipes, and creating media and fitness videos to help inspire others to get up, get out, and simply move! A few of our favorite recent trips consisted of spontaneous birthday weekend trip to Paris, a week roaming around Rome, the crystal blue, dreamy waters of Bimini and recently, Exuma, and a few salsa dances in Havana! I also wrote a fun guide for my time in Nashville.

I’m just here in attempt to spread light from the content I create. Through my blog, my vision was to offer my help with cities I’ve traveled to, lifestyle items and ideas that I have worked with so that I can share my input and personal understanding of them. The platform I’ve created has given me the chance to hopefully only speak life.

I partner with brands that I feel share a similar outlook on life as I do, value integrity, and are overall just clean and healthy.

My worldview came into focus when my focus shifted to Him, Jesus. God changes our point of view when we understand just how blurry our vision really is without Him. “My hope is that my vision would move further away from my own thoughts, opinions and interpretations- and closer to the way God sees things.” I love these words from Elisabeth Hasselback in a book I recently read because it’s always a prayer of surrender that by the power of the Holy Spirit, “I line up my point of view behind the lens of the gospel in order to see myself, others, and all that is happening as God wants me to see it.”

Romans 12:2 | Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–His good, pleasing and perfect will. 

That Sounds Delicious [HelloFresh Recipes We Love]

Screen Shot 2019-05-15 at 1.48.04 PMHEY GUYS! So this last year I’ve really enjoyed trying out tons of new recipes and sharing them on social for anyone who wants to try! I love to encourage my friends to cook! In the past, I would improvise with several healthy ingredients and it would turn out decent sometimes, sometimes not so much. I actually started cooking a lot when I began partnering with HelloFresh. This is a fairly healthy food service that delivers a box of 2-3 meals every week to your door step; all ingredients measured out, recipe card inside, good to go. The more I followed these recipes, the more confident I became, and I began to learn which ingredients worked well with each other and kind of began creating my own spin on things. If you feel like any of the following applies to you: “I’m an awful cook”, “I don’t have time to cook for my family”, “I hate going to the grocery store and planning out ingredients ahead of time”, “I need new ideas for healthy and quick recipes,” THEN a meal delivery service may be the right choice for you! I’ll just say a few additional pieces before I dive right into the real reason you’re here: EASY AND FUN HF FRESH RECIPES!!

Things I love about HelloFresh:

  1. I select the meals the week before (or figure it out weeks in advance!)
  2. Weekly box is delivered to my door.
  3. Recipe cards have 6 photos along with step by step instructions
  4. Balanced meals all done within 20-45 minutes time
  5. It’s given me new confidence in the kitchen and fun ideas to build from!
  6. $80 off code for you: HMGRIFF80 🙂 Just visit HelloFresh and you can visit my IG page @hmgriff11 to see a few HF meals I’ve prepared on my story highlights! 
  7. They also have a wine club that pairs the right wines with your meals. I’M ALL ABOUT THAT.
