Hi. Need some design feedback. I am working with radiate wp theme. It seems like it doesn't flow very well. Sidebar looks to cut and paste. Hmmm
Thanks for feedback.

It looks really generic, there's very little personality. This might be caused by the earth tone colors and generic fonts. I'd start with some nice fonts. I'd start by changing the font in the menu Brand to be the same as in the header image. If you go with that serif font as your main impact font a nice sans serif font would be a good choice for the body.
On mobile, your header image isn't responsive. I'd change that so it is, as you can't see most of the image on mobile without scrolling all over the place.
I think the color choices could be better in the body content area, and especially in the hover effects on the icons. You can hardly see them with the brown and grey when you hover over them. I don't think the current tan background goes with the colors in the header image. I'd try pulling colors directly from your header image and using them throughout your theme to increase it's cohesiveness.
I also find your menu confusing, it seems like it belongs on a corporate website, but your content seems to indicate this is a blog.
You're off to a nice clean start, and I thinks some personality would go a long way for you.
