On June 18, 2016 at 9:11 pm, Zoey Marie came unexpectedly into the world. She weighed a tiny 6 pounds and measured almost 21 inches. Long and lean just like her mom and dad! We didn’t find out her gender before her birth, and I was shocked to hear...

Last week, I had you sit down and really determine what supports you needed in order to be successful in reaching your goals. If you missed that post, and the free worksheet to do your thinking on, head back over to it and start there. Without it, this post will not...

While studying to become a personal trainer, I learned a great deal about the human body, especially the chapter on over and under active muscles. Even with all this knowledge, I felt like something was missing. While the program touched a bit on the mental side of...

I used to date this guy in college who had an all-or-nothing mentality. If he wasn’t completely, dead tired after a workout, then he didn’t count it. If dinner didn’t come out of the oven exactly right, then he would barely eat it. He was exhausting to be around....

Happy Wednesday Everyone! I hope your week has slowed down in terms of business, but has sped up so the weekend arrives quicker. I’m spending the day doing curriculum design, whomp whomp. Truthfully, lesson planning is one of my favorite parts of teaching, but with...

During our year in Vietnam, we definitely had a few spots that we frequented often. Places we felt safe, welcome, and knew the food was good and the drinks cheap. Granted, most of the places we loved were in the “Korean district” of Phu My Hung in District...
