    How did you add the image? Did you use the Header Image feature added to the Customizer or CSS?

    Your style sheet shows its been added using CSS.

    .site-title a {
        background: url(http://iamfullyalivenow.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/cropped-logo.png) no-repeat !important;
    }

    I am really at a loss here......support said:
    Please be aware that when you change the custom header image size, you then need to adjust the theme's CSS to ensure the new image size is responsive. It looks like you need to add CSS to the media queries in your stylesheet to make the custom header image responsive on smaller screen sizes.

    Not sure where to even begin......can anyone please advise. Novice here!

    Add this in your style.css file

    .header-image .site-title > a {
        background-size: contain;
        width: 100%!important;
    }

    Agreed. That should fix it.

    Thank you guys for helping....I really really appreciate your input!!!!!

    Unfortunately it did not work until I added !important after contain.

    .header-image .site-title > a {
    background-size: contain !important;
    width: 100%!important;
    }

    That achieved the responsiveness that I was desperately needing but now there is a large space under the image. Can I get rid of that?

    You will reduce the height by CSS.
