Healthy Eats by Strong Roots
This post is sponsored by Strong Roots. All opinions and thoughts are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. You all know I am very picky about the foods I bring into our home and feed to my family. Even though it’s not always easy, We try to eat as clean and as organically as possible. I receive over a hundred emails a week from companies who want me to promote their brands, and a great deal of these are “healthy” food companies.

Protect your skin… even in the Fall!
It might officially be fall but it is HOT HOT HOT in South Carolina. Before I had kids, I was really lacking knowledge in the sunscreen department. My idea of protection was slathering on Banana Boat body oil and feeling the burn! After I had Nolan, I started researching about sunscreens to use and was shocked at the information I found relating to them. Did you know that most well known sunscreens harbor tons of toxic ingredients? Vitamin A, (aka RETINOL PALMITATE) has been known to speed the development of skin tumors when exposed to sunlight. Another ingredients, Oxybenzone is a common allergen. These two ingredients are in most sunscreens…

The Best Advice I’ve Ever Received About Work
“You can do it all but you cannot do it all in one day.” Have you ever heard this statement? It’s something that was shared with me a few years ago and resonates with me several times a day. I am someone who has extremely BIG goals for herself, is working multiple businesses and raising five babies. To say I am busy is the understatement of the century. I am sure we can all say that we are at least somewhat busy with life and wanting to make sure we maximize the time we devote to work. If you have multiple things to juggle, you’re reading the right post, I…
