We’ve gotten the question so many times — why Florida?

It’s not just sunshine and palm trees.
It’s a shift in values, in energy, and in how we want to live and raise our kids. Check out the carousel above for our reasoning behind the move!

👇 I’d love to hear: have you ever felt the pull to completely shift your life? What stopped you or what helped you say yes?

I haven’t shared this on Facebook that much (only on IG), but I’ve been learning a lot about how a child’s jaw development affects their teeth, breathing, sleep, and even behavior.

Most of us grew up thinking crowded teeth just meant braces later on, but in many cases, early intervention can actually help guide proper growth—without needing braces or harsh expanders down the road. That’s where *ToothPillow* comes in.

It’s a gentle, at-home oral appliance designed to support natural jaw development, making more space for teeth and improving breathing.

If your child has crowded teeth, snores, or breathes through their mouth at night, this is worth looking into. It can also help with other sleep related breathing disorders like ADHD, anxiety, bed wetting, tonsillitis, cavities and so much more.

It’s 100% virtual, everything is done through an app. It’s much less expensive than braces and expanders (trust me I know, I have one child with ToothPillow and one child doing the traditional route). 

We’ve had so much success with it so far, that I became an ambassador for the company and have a special code to offer for those of you who would like to see if your child qualifies.

For the next two days, you can get:
✨ A free assessment (normally $50) to see if your child is a good fit
✨ $200 off if you choose to move forward with the program

I’m happy to share more details—just send me a message or click the link below to start the free 15 min assessment. You’ll need to take pictures of your child’s mouth and answer some questions. You can add Jessica Klick as the referral and at the end of the questionnaire add promo code THEKLICKLIFE for the free assessment from an airway dentist.

Spring is just around the corner, and we’re back out in nature, hiking once again. Life is good. Today, I discovered my favorite hike in all of Rhode Island! It had everything—elevation changes, rocky scrambles, and breathtaking views. A rare gem in this little beach state. ❤️

Did you know fevers aren’t something to fear? They’re actually a sign that your immune system is working! ⬇️

For years, my daughter’s immune system was dysregulated due to PANS/PANDAS. Instead of fevers, she’d have neurological flares. Now, when she gets a fever, I see it as a GOOD thing—it means her immune system is doing its job. 👏🏼

Instead of suppressing, we support her body naturally with these remedies. (Swipe to see what we use!)

What’s your go-to remedy when your family gets sick? Drop it in the comments! 👇🏽 Let’s share the knowledge!

📌 Disclaimer: This is what works for our family, but always do your own research and consult a trusted healthcare provider for medical advice.

After posting about magnesium in my stories, I got so many questions about which type to take—so I created this guide to help! 🌿

When adding magnesium to your routine, it’s best to include multiple forms because each one supports different functions. Pair it with an electrolyte mix to maintain balance and avoid depleting potassium.

Did you know stress drains magnesium levels? These days, most of us are running on fumes—and low magnesium is linked to anxiety, irritability, poor sleep, thyroid health, blood sugar regulation, cortisol balance, hormone health, and more.

Common signs of deficiency include muscle cramps, headaches, fatigue, and brain fog. Magnesium is essential, yet our diets and lifestyles often don’t provide enough.

Start slow, listen to your body, and feel the difference! 💛 Which type of magnesium do you take?

Why recreate school at home when you’ve already decided that traditional school isn’t the right fit for your child? Homeschooling is all about finding what motivates them, making learning personal, and creating a space that works for them. It’s about spending time living life, learning through experiences, and embracing the freedom to explore what truly sparks their curiosity.

Have you heard of the term de-schooling? It’s basically the time you take to step back from the whole ‘school at home’ mindset. It’s about letting go of what you think learning should look like and giving yourself (and your kids) the freedom to figure out what works best for them. Think of it as a reset—no pressure, just space to explore, be curious, and enjoy learning in a more relaxed way.

Have you gone through a de-schooling process yourself?

Spending time in nature and letting kids have free play, including taking risks, is one of the best things for them. As an occupational therapist, I see how this kind of play is essential for developing coordination, balance, and motor skills. Activities like climbing, jumping, or balancing on uneven surfaces help with proprioception (awareness of their body in space) and sensory processing, which are key for overall development. Allowing them to take risks also gives them the chance to problem-solve and build emotional resilience as they face challenges. It’s not just about playing outside; it’s about giving them the space to grow, learn, and gain confidence in their own abilities. Plus, it’s amazing to watch how much more independent they get when they’re out there exploring on their own. 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼

My 11-year-old daughter wrote and published her first book. I can’t even begin to explain how proud I am of her. I have always been in awe of her creative mind. To witness her dedication to this project, from spending hours typing away to completing the process of independently publishing her work, just leaves me speechless.
