In 8th grade I read the book “The Outsiders” and loved it! It was basically the first book I ever read on my own….and it wasn’t until I was in my 30’s that I read another book. It started with self help type books to improve my mindset, relationships, communication, etc. This year I joined […]

Too much of a good thing is never a good thing, even if that thing is a good for you thing. <- I tell Isabelle this often to help her keep a balanced plate. For me, peanut butter is that thing. It’s a good for you fat (pending the brand -> check those ingredients!) but […]

For the last few years my family has made a calendar with the birthdays and photos of the family 💕 I absolutely LOVE this calendar hanging in my kitchen where I see it daily. {it doesn’t mean I always send the birthday cards out in time though 🤪}. March is all about my big brother […]

Yesterday was non-stop: Not my norm at all but that’s ok. I was organized and since I planned ahead it all worked out. Today was a slow start ✨ my fave ✨ and then I got a late call to sub today {after my workout 🙌 so perfect timing really}. I planned last night – […]

About last night. ✨ Time spent with some of my favorite people. Most of the time we connect on line, so when we get together in person I soak up every minute of it; celebrating progress by sharing transformation photos and just being around these girls and the good vibes feeds my soul! The workouts […]

Headed back to Punta Cana, one month from today and this time I’m taking my parents. Out of the 6 trips I’ve earned, Punta Cana is by far my most favorite destination. ☀️🌴🍹 Stepping off the plane when we went in 2017, I was a bit nervous about the trip. The grass roof on the […]
