HairDO
Let me tell y’all a little secret. My hair is my security blanket. I am still shocked at myself for cutting it… but all the post partum hair fall out and regrowth gave me no choice! After transitioning my personal care products (and adding a few kids in the mix), one of the things I kept reading about hair is that when you over wash it can cause a multitude of issues. I’ve dealt with psoriasis for many, many, many years and having those flare ups and sores in my scalp make me willing to try anything.

Healthy From the Inside Out
Your quality of life is directly impacted by the foods you eat and the beauty products you use. Everyday, we have the choice to fuel our bodies with what will enlighten us and cause us to feel better inside and out or consume that which will drag us down and keep us in a state of muddled clarity. For so many people in this busy society, it can feel stressful and cause anxiety to figure out the “best” things for our bodies. I opened an email this morning with the tagline “rescue for problematic skin” and it has me thinking about how often we are bombarded with products to fix…

(Source: CDC.gov) that’s scary! I don’t know about you, but it seems like cancer is everywhere these days. I know so many people personally affected and it’s absolutely heartbreaking. My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and…

My Trip to Four Seasons the Biltmore in Santa Barbara
As many of you have seen via my social media, I visited Santa Barbara at the beginning of September. The trip was special to me for many reasons: it was the first time away from my children, I was around inspiring and powerful women, being able to stay at Four Seasons the Biltmore (duh) and being treated like a queen, eating organic amazing food and knowing that I earned this FREE trip because I worked my butt off for three months and my Beautycounter business is proof of it. I decided to join the Beautycounter movement after trying countless “organic” and “natural” products and being unimpressed by their performance and/or…

Girl’s Night Must Haves – Beauty Product Edition
A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to vacation in Santa Barbara at the Biltmore with a few hundred other ladies. This group of women and myself, won a trip from our company for our hard work over the course of last summer. Amongst those ladies were a few of my personal teammates, which made the trip even more special. Before that weekend, I hadn’t had a “girls night” since I got pregnant five years ago. Five years yall! Although I love my family and my Little’s, having a few days to myself was amazing and I am so refreshed because of it. My teammate, Christine Brown, and I…
