A safer kitchen starts with shopping local!
I spend A LOT of time in the kitchen y’all. Probably 20ish hours a day… jk but that’s what it feels like. I am sure that you can only imagine what all I am asked to make, open or get for my fam on a daily basis. My people are the people that LOVE good foods and snacking so there is no telling how much traffic goes in and out of the kitchen on the reg. Having a non toxic kitchen was a big goal of mine when I started switching to safer and it is something that I am still striving for. Since I transitioned to a non toxic lifestyle,…

Okay, guys…. I am SO excited to talk about this experience the boys and I were able to have recently.

Why our children take jiu jitsu- a look into human trafficking
The sad reality that we are facing is that human trafficking is becoming more and more common. It is a sickening realization that I wish would just disappear but it just growing by the day!

In ONE YEAR in the state of South Carolina alone, there was a 360% increase in human trafficking victim here. This number has tripled in my state alone in the last year. Knowing this and being in a few situations where I was followed with my children, I want to do…

Our Fav Foods in Florence
As many of you know, we recently moved to another town in South Carolina. I say recently, this happened back in March. It was a really crazy time because I had just gone on a trip to Washington, D.C. with Beautycounter, Harper turned four and we had her birthday party then we moved. AHHHHH! And I won’t get into to much detail but we are having to move AGAIN into another rental. (I will elaborate on this but later!) I grew up in a small town near Florence, SC and when I went to college, I went to Francis Marion University. I lived in Florence for five years while…

#takethejob Girl’s Night Out Opportunity Event
Wednesday night, I led my first Beautycounter opportunity event with the help of one of my mentors and founding member of Beautycounter, Christi Hucks, and one of my teammates, Stephinee Guerrero. This event was for Beautycounter consultants to come out and bring people that they’ve wanted on their Beautycounter teams to chat about taking the job. The job is hands down the best product that Beautycounter makes so being able to showcase that means so much to me! That night was amazing and I am so happy that I was able to go celebrate and talk about safer beauty with so many wonderful women. When I say that Beautycounter changes…
