this is for your inner child…seriously
I’m so excited to share my mom’s newest book and her first book written for children, Beautiful Girl: Celebrating the Wonders of Your Body.

Don’t let this sneaky habit drain you this holiday season – 3 simple steps to refuel.
For many of us the holiday season is about giving. I absolutely love giving gifts. In fact, my gift expense category is often one of the highest line items when I do my end of the year finances. A few years ago, though, my mom, my sister Ann and I decided not to do gifts… Continue Reading
Hogwarts books, glitter, + a candle: a specific recipe for a feel good year
On Sunday my man and I cleared the day for our 2012 review and laying the groundwork for a fab 2013. I’ve done some version of annual review and planning every year since I can remember. When I was growing up, on December 31st my family would sit in a circle on the living room… Continue Reading

I remember when I was growing up, the other kids would tell me that they hated going to basketball or lacrosse practice, but their parents had taught them not to be quitters so they just toughed it out.
