    What I Eat In Day – Ideas For Healthy + Fresh Options

    This post is in partner with Daily Harvest. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. I’ll be honest I’ve been really intimidated to sit down and really write out a play-by-play of the foods that I eat. It’s one of the most frequent questions that I asked and every time I sit down at the computer end up freezing up and not writing the whole thing.  At this point in my life, I have decided to eliminate all fast foods, most processed foods, and focus on eating organic and fresh high-quality foods. My tastes do change often but I found I always…

    How I’ve Learned To Create Habits

    Everyone that I know has goals and I’m pretty sure that we could all say that we want to be successful with them. I’m also confident in saying that life gets in the way and our plans change in a moment so it’s not always easy to accomplish everything we would like.

    Why I Keep A “Mom Survival” Bag In My Car

    This post is in partner with Shop Hannah Bee’s. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please read my disclaimer page for more information. Have you ever gotten in the car, left the house and heard “mom, I need ______!” and “______” is something you don’t have? It has happened to me more times than I can count. As a mom of five, there is always SOMETHING to be brought with us when we leave our house. Trying to rally 5 kids to leave the house more than likely also causes me to forget things…. which isn’t the best when you decide to leave the safe net of your own…

    My Must Have For Zits!

    Have you ever used charcoal in your skincare? It has become my favorite multipurpose product in my nontoxic journey for a multitude of reasons! My skin is acne prone so charcoal really works wonders with my break outs. Story time: If you go into a hospital, you’ll see charcoal being used to treat overdoses. The black powder in activated charcoal stops toxins from being absorbed in the stomach by binding to them. The body is unable to absorb charcoal, and so the toxins that bind to the charcoal leave the body in the feces. I shared that story to explain that it has a similar effect when used on the skin,…
