Before all of this craziness began, I was always in a hurry. Rushing here and there…scurrying like a little mouse to get everything on my to-do list done. Now that things have slowed down for me, I am wondering what all the rushing was about. What exactly was the rush? My schedule, like many other…

Doing What Is Best For You
I had a moment during my “me” time where I asked myself, “Are you doing what is best for you?” I mean, am I making decisions FOR me and living my life FOR me? What would your answer be if you asked yourself the same question? Answering that question was hard for me because I…
Stop Settling For Basic
I believe that sometimes we settle in life because we want to be polite, it’s easier, comfortable or we are not the type to “ruffle feathers.” Sometimes we settle because it is easier than getting real with ourselves and acknowledging our needs and desires.

How To Start Owning Your Decisions
I know that I do not speak for myself when I say that I was truly ill-equipped to make my own decisions as a young woman. From parents not allowing us to make small decisions as children to our friends and family imposing their personal opinions and desires on us as we grow into adulthood…

I’m Outgrowing People and That’s Ok
As we get older..we tend to outgrow things. We have outgrown our clothes, our tastes and there are certain things that we just aren’t going to do anymore. Have you outgrown Santa and the tooth fairy? Maybe you have outgrown wrestling your younger siblings or dainty little tea parties (can’t say that I have!)…it happens….

Vitamin K has a reputation for promoting blood clotting. It also contributes to strong bones and heart, lowering cancer risks, and protects against diabetes and…
Opening Up Will Change Your Life
I used to be more outgoing in my young adult years. I wanted to be around everybody. I wanted to have get-togethers every weekend…now…not so much. As time has gone on and my focus has been more on raising productive members of society, I have turned into somewhat of a hermit. I rarely shared my…
