March in South Florida might be my favorite. A year ago the whole world was shutting down and I distinctly remember my husband and I having a conversation about how fortunate we felt that this was the climate in which we “had” to be locked down in – because this time of year here is […]
What if it were completely possible to be a working mom and no longer feel stressed out? What if feeling stressed out was actually a choice, rather than a requirement of working motherhood?

One month from today I will be thirty-nine. It didn’t hit me until this afternoon when I was thinking about this year and how challenging yet how wonderful it has been. I had incredibly high hopes for this year and even penned those hopes in a piece titled, This is…38, where I detailed 38 intentions […]
When I started this blog – I was at a point in my career journey where I was dealing with a lot of challenges and difficult moments, moments I’d never experienced before. Ultimately they laid the path for this blog to become a reality, and writing about my journey of being a mom in the […]

Unfortunately, we don’t get the challenges first because if we did […]
One of the bright spots throughout this pandemic has been the growing number of families taking to their front porches to capture pictures of their family.

Do you love your career AND love being a mom? Do you feel like you’re rocking all things career and motherhood one day, and the next completely failing at all of it? You’re not alone. On a cold but sunny February afternoon in Waco, Texas – at none other than the mecca of all things […]
T•H•I•R•T•Y-E•I•G•H•T Today, January 8th, is my Birthday. Until the past couple of years, I’d never enjoyed celebrating my Birthday.
