Much-cha love for Matcha Green Tea
So, what is matcha? Basically, it’s a concentrated form of green tea. The way that it’s grown and consumed keeps it packed full of essential vitamins and minerals. Matcha contains 137 times the antioxidants of regular green tea making it a super helper for your immune system. Matcha is also able to give you energy all day verses a burst which can make you feel jittery. It provides 4 to 6 hours of mild steady energy as it acts as both a stimulant and relaxant. This is super helpful when you have something random thrown your way and need to pivot! When you eat or drink matcha, it can help…

Mom Truths from a Mom of Five: SELF CARE is a must
As a mom of five, I don’t get *tons* of alone time and there is most certainly always something to do. I am thankful that my husband and I know how important self care is for both of us and we try to make it happen every week. This hasn’t always been the case and it really caused us to struggle mentally. Now that we’ve seen the positive benefits, I aim to shout from the roof tops just how important self care is for moms (and Dads) pulling their weight raising babies!

Why Do I Not “Buy” As Much Clothing As I Used Too
Back in March 2020, I started getting a monthly Rent the Runway subscription. Rent the Runway is premier designer rental destination that allows you to rent high fashion on trend items, wear them, and swap them for new ones when you’re ready. I was going on a work trip and needed a few pieces that I knew I wouldn’t wear again and one of my friends suggested it. The Rent the Runway app is extremely easy to navigate and allowed me to find the clothing for my trip and so much more. I loved it so much that I decided to continue to rent new pieces instead of splurging on…
