My kids and I spend a lot of time at the park. Especially during these summer months. It’s pretty much a necessity for them to burn off some of their non-stop energy. My daughter’s favorite thing to do at the park has always been to swing. I should say, her favorite thing to do is […] Read more…

What do you want? Really.
As women, we tend to change – a lot. Whether it be our hair, fashion sense or what we want for ourselves. It’s always evolving. As a single woman, I had this idea of me working in television or public relations. I imagined I’d drive a Jeep Grand Cherokee. It would be silver with gold […] Read more…
Summer Days + Spare Keys
It was a hot Southern California day (aka yesterday). I had been out to run a few errands with the kids. We got back home and headed to the backyard to play before lunch. I put a bit of water in their water table and headed in the house for a wireless speaker to get […] Read more…
What If’s, Dreams + Playing Small
If it seems impossible, I seem to be drawn to it. If it seems like it may be just out of my range in any way, I really want it. I’ve always been that way. I’ve always wanted the things that people feel are lofty. It’s not so much the material things it’s the crazy, […] Read more…
I don’t wanna be fearless
There’s this word we hear all the time. It makes you feel powerful. It implies that nothing phases you. When people use it, we assume they walk through this world setting it on fire. I was all about it too. I was sold on being FEARLESS! Who doesn’t want to be? Who doesn’t want to […] Read more…

Just Do It, Already! #GID challenge
When I was younger my mom noticed an issue with me. I would have mounds of stuff to do and I’d wait until the last possible moment to get things done. It drove her bananas. She’d always be on my case about procrastinating! Which, of course, drove me nuts. In my head, if something wasn’t […] Read more…
Never Too Late
My whole “mama motivator” moniker was started because I have encountered far too many moms who felt like it was too late to do certain things that might bring them some happiness. I talked too many moms who felt like everything about them had to hit the back burner because their name changed to mama. […] Read more…
I’m Being Watched…
I’m being watched. At all times, I’m being watched. Whether I like it or not, there are eyes on me and all that I do. I’m not always sure how I feel about that. It’s not what you say, it’s what you do. As a mom, I’m finding these words couldn’t be more true. My […] Read more…
