Stress Relief Toolkit

work where you want!

We’ve all been there, no matter how peaceful and calm things may look on the outside, being a mom sometimes (or often) includes a lot of stress. Recently I was introduced to Darlene Berkel, creator of the Ultimate Stress Relief Toolkit and owner of Natural Stress Relief Tips for Women. Darlene graciously agreed to answer [...]

Am I Alone? Motherhood Demystified

work where you want!

I thought I was the only one. That every other mom out there somehow had it figured out but me. I sometimes question my ability to be a good parent simply based on how easy it can be to get so very overwhelmed with the endless list of things I need to do. I sometimes can’t [...]

Healthy Goals

If you’re like me and have maybe health and weight loss goals on your list this year, here’s a couple simple tricks to help you out. Don’t do too much too fast. This is quite possibly one of the best ways to completely kill a goal. We all do it from time to time when [...]

Absence

I’m pretty sure there comes a time in every blogger’s life where they aren’t entirely sure what they will share or even if they should. Although my blog started so small, I know that now there are many that actually read it and I want to make sure that the things I share are an [...]

You Noticed?

Yes, after a few months of being quiet I suddenly feel like the fog is lifting and I want to talk again.  So if you’ve noticed that I’m suddenly blogging again…you aren’t mistaken.  I’m just doing it a bit differently and still kind of ‘going with the flow’ of whatever is on my mind, or [...]
