    The Importance of Staying Positive

    Why are you viewing photos of me meditating and going through a yoga flow when the topic of this blog is about being positive? Because the first thing I want to do every time I see these photos is to critique myself. But guess what, this body deserves some love and positivity. It’s carried 5 babies, almost 31 years of living and hopefully will keep me on this earth for a very long time.

    My Work Schedule and Why Bluelight Glasses Are a Must For Me

    Getting into a groove with a work schedule now that I am homeschooling 3 out of 5 of our children. I’ve learned as a mom to give my kids and myself all the grace and don’t focus on a strict time blocked schedule but a more relaxed loosely time blocked schedule. Many of you know that I am a Managing Director with Beautycounter and I also run this lifestyle and health and wellness blog full time. As a Managing Director, I have around 500 women on my team that I spend time coaching, mentoring and just uplifting every single day. In addition to my amazing team, I also try to…
