Today, my youngest daughter said how terrible she was at something just because it (the task) was challenging or required her to practice more.… Read More »
Hey Moms, Some days are just MEH. ? Whether from the weight of mom-world on your shoulders to the actual world news…some days just require extra work to stay in the game. When these moments hit, I often think about my old days of playing tennis and how I stayed motivated to win as an… Read More »
Hey Moms, It’s S-P-R-I-N-G Moms! What does that mean for us? A couple of things: It’s time for the seasonal ‘clothes management’ switch…that’s what I call sifting through the winter and summer clothes and deciding on a good mix of clothes to keep in the kids’ drawers for this “transitional” weather.

Hey Moms, If we are being honest, the weekends aren’t always fun or the 2 days of the week we look forward to. At times, being “on” all day, for 48 hours straight, after working a full week of work, can seem like quite the task. I clearly remember my old co-workers always wishing me great… Read More »
Hey Moms, Whether working at a job or at home, we spend an extreme amount of our lives “working.” Specifically, employed Americans, spend 8.8 hours a day working (and other related activities) per the Bureau of Labor Statistics report of 2015. That’s ⅓ of everyday, the largest piece of our daily pie, spent on working.… Read More »
Hey Moms, Monday night’s BLAB was GGGRRREEEAAATTTT! Moms & Money is definitely a topic we need to discuss on the regular. You can check out the replay HERE. Aj Mac of Principles of Increase and Aisha Taylor of FNPhenomenal really did an outstanding job of offering financial insight and winning strategies. I loved that we had 4 cities represented in one… Read More »
Hey Moms, There’s a saying that goes, “the best view comes after the hardest climb.” This statement rings true for me and maybe for you too.
