They say "Do something creative!" 🎨 but with 2 rambunctious kids running around, uh, needlepoint and watercolor painting may not prove the most enjoyable, let alone, possible, activities. Use what you have Momma! Get messy! And remember "mistakes" are a necessary part of art and perfection is rarely fun or interesting. 💗

When was the last time you took yourself on a "date"? 💃

If you're a mom then you can probably guess that by "date" I just mean going anywhere alone. 🤪

And yes, the grocery store does count.👍

I want to encourage you to make that next trip just a bit more special. Do a little extra. Grab a coffee or call a friend or woof some dang fries in the parking lot. Whatever might make that time feel a bit more indulgent and a lot more joyful.

As moms we know that time alone can be ridiculously scarce. However, rather than stew about that or any other perceived injustices against us let's take back that time. And more importantly, take back our minds during that time.

It can be so easy to finally get out of the house alone only to waste it thinking about all the ways its unfair, and we feel bad, angry, cheated or unfulfilled.

But using these precious moments we need in order to recharge to instead, stew on the past or future, is totally counter productive. And on the whole its not going to help us make any changes.

We need space and sanity to create change in our lives. Because change is really freakin HARD!

So if you're spending a free hour stewing, and depriving yourself of a little joy, it's likely you will not recharge and you will not do anything differently to improve your situation.

Stop the cycle. You are the only person responsible for making YOU happy. So it is so freakin important to do that ecspecially when you're alone.

Another great way to make the most of an hour alone is to work with me. 😊

We laugh, we cry, we celebrate and we connect. That is recharging. And it will create massive change not just in your life but in the lives of everyone around you.

Hey New Momma!
YOU can make a BABY WRAP in 60 SECONDS!!! It's true Momma. This DIY NO SEW BABY WRAP can be made in 60 SECONDS or as long as it takes you to cut it in half! All you need is 5 yards rayon/spandex blend fabric and scissors! Just cut down the middle and you'll have TWO ready-to-use baby wraps!!! Baby wrapping or babywearing is one of my favorite parts of having a new baby. It can be a little intimidating at first but with just a little bit of practice, you can whoop that thing on in no time. My newborn babies always slept so good all wrapped up on my chest, also called the cradle hold or hug hold. You can still baby wear as they get older but I've found they're much less cooperative. Please share this video with all the new and soon to be Mommas in your life and be sure to SUBSCRIBE for more fun mom tips!

I'm doing at my own pace. The pressure to hustle is so real for moms. But it's important to know that "doing" comes from our masculine energy. While "being" is associated with our feminie energy. We all, men and women, need a balance of both these energies to feel whole.

I wrote this affirmation as a way to remind myself that while I can hustle to do all the things I can also have grace with myself and honor my feminine energy by doing it at my own pace. And in my own way as I mentioned in my last post. Visit to read it!

This is particularly useful when our preferences don't align with the popular mainstream ways of "doing" motherhood.

In what areas can your honor your unique pace and your feminie energy? 😊

Happy Monday Mommas! I meant to post this on Sunday but I was having such a that I decided it better to just unplug and enjoy watching my kids play outside in the beautiful weather.

Sunday's are kind of a big deal for me. It's a day for fun, sun and self-care. For setting my mind, body and soul right before the week starts.

I get out my Good Morning Good Life Planner and schedule everything. Groceries, activities for the kids, when I'll work on HNM. I meal plan for the week and decide when I'll tackle chores like laundry.

Yea you might think I'd have a certain regular day for that stuff but I've found after several failed attempts that it just doesn't work for me. I'm more of a big batch "doer". I'd rather do all the laundry on one day than do a single load everyday.

I wish I could have success the other way but I've found that it's imperative to our success that we take our own unique preferences and identity into consideration as we create the life we want... (kinda duh!)

If you don't like it or find even a hint of satisfaction in doing a load of laundry everyday then guess what... you won't do it!

So momma what's one way your preferences go against conventional wisdom? Let's celebrate it because it's one of the tiny first steps to taking your power back and making motherhood your own.

Check out my next post for more on "doing" at your own pace and how this relates to balancing your feminie and masculine energy. Visit now and follow!

If you're strugglin' to keep up with a screen-free, all organic, handmade clothes and only wooden toys, etc lifestyle... well this book is for you.

Raise your hand🖐 if you know the amazing Beth Berry !

I first found Beth here on instagram and after reading a few excerpts from her book Motherwhelmed I immediately ordered it and later bought it 2 more times for my friends.

It came to me at a time in my life when I knew something was wrong, I just didnt know what. I was hustling to be the perfect mom and start my own business and grow my youtube channel but I just felt like crap all the time. 🤷‍♀️

I was burnt out and lost.

Beth's book shows us that mothers have been put in a uniquely awful position where we must choose to sacrifice ourselves or be demonized for not meeting social expectations.

I think this book should be mandatory for all new moms. Because no one should feel immense guilt or shame for feeding their kid a corndog so they can shower one day or work on their novel for 20 minutes the next or whatever else fills you up in that moment that society tells you you should sacrafice, not for your kids sake, but for the sake of meeting this new level of "perfection".

Comment with an emoji how much you love books?? 🥳💯💗 After I graduated college with a B.A. in Communications I saw myself at this crossroad. I felt like my learning journey was ending... I had finally finished school!

Cool, but, there were still so many things I wanted to do and know. So I made a conscious decision that it wasn't the end and if there was something I wanted to learn, I could read a book about it. I quickly picked up several Books for Dummies including personal finance, vegetarianism, cooking, fitness and nutrition. And I didnt stop there...

I've been lugging trunkfuls of books around ever since. (OK so my muscular friends did the lugging. Thanks guys. No one wants me to move ever again.)

I considered starting a seperate ig account just for books but decided for now I'm just excited to share some of the most impactful books I've read with YOU!

And please please please dont think you dont have time to read. Theres an amazing service called the library and that can help you find almost any book on tape to listen to while you... breastfeed, do the dishes, walk on the treadmill or just sit on the couch mindlessly staring at 🥴

Reading has changed my life more times than I can count because knowledge is in fact power. And with it we can make powerful choices. Choices we may have not realized we even had or ones that felt really daunting or even flat out wrong before we knew what we now know.

My point is... reading books helps A LOT! I hope my recommendations will prove this for you.

It's affirmation day! It's affirmation day! [ you feel me.😋 ❄️ ]

I'm so excited to be sharing some of my very own with you.

Every week I'll post a new affirmation from my own personal collection.😎

If you have a baby then you're likely finding yourself pulled in several different directions all. the. time.

This can make it hard to remember, well anything🤪 but what usually gets pushed out completely are the changes you're trying to make. Like remembering that you are worthy of everything you seek and the abundant your life you currently have. 🙆🏼‍♀️

Affirmations can help keep us in our lane. I use the My Affirmations App.

It reminds me all day everyday via a sweet chime and notification of who I want to be in the world! And more importantly how great me and my world already are! 😊

So if you've never used affirmations before, this is a great way to start. Download the app or take a screen shot of this post and save it as your phones wallpaper (P.S. its okay to NOT use a picture of your kids as your wallpaper. Shocker, right?!)

Swipe 👉 YOU HAVE THE POWER!
Say it > "I HAVE THE POWER!"

To...
Love myself
Get my needs met
Feel like a great mom
Help myself when I'm strugglin'
Change my life
Not take what other people say or do personally
.. and so much more.

You have the power momma!

Do you know what gives you sunshine on a cloudy day? 🌞

I was not prepared for motherhood. And yet I had been waiting for it my whole life.  

I was so focused on the steps: Date> Marry> BABIES!  But once they were here this feeling of guilt and shame came over me. And then anger because I couldn’t ignore that I still felt unfulfilled.

I realized I didn’t enjoy many of the things I thought made me a good mom. Like cooking and cleaning and playing with my kids. 😬

I tiptoed around the issue partly because I didn’t have the bandwidth while caring for 2 under 2 but also because I didn’t know what to do.

I had done therapy and yet, I still felt, LOST + OVERWHELMED.  

I started reading just to quiet my mind. Or perhaps just focus it in one direction. (P.S. It worked!)

I read Beth Berry’s Motherwhelmed and realized that for so long, I was trying to live up to this imaginary expectation. 

I didn’t actually know what I liked. 

So I took a break from the hustle and decided to look for those things. 

First I turned to music.  Turns out I’m a fan of country love songs.  Who knew!? Oh right, me and my inner Trisha Yearwood from when I was 10.  Then I started decorating, and without looking for ideas online or asking for anyone's opinion.  I found that I freaking LOVE decorating FOR ME.  I started to find that my home was my sanctuary, my oasis, not my prison.

I finally took steps to become a life coach and hired my own coach. And so much has changed for me.

You can have this too Momma.  

I’m going to teach you what I’ve learned and help you find the things that make you happy.
THOSE THINGS MATTER. 
YOUR HAPPINESS MATTERS. 

So what gives you sunshine on a cloudy day? Leave it in the comments!

Where my minivan mommas at? Do you love your minivan?

I sure do. I used to have a rav4 and my husband said it was like driving a couch down the road. Now he says the van is like driving the whole living room. 😋

But let me just throw out this analogy for coaching. When I first became a mom I had all the things I thought I needed or was suppose to have but then baby number 2 came and lets just say things needed an upgrade. I needed more tools for managing my emotions, my mindset and honestly more cup holders. 😆

My point is, coaching for me has been like that next upgrade. I had watched all the videos and read all the books but actually working with another human being is like going from the couch to the whole freakin living room.

If you didn't see my last post I'm offering special one-off sessions for mommas that are curious about coaching but not quite ready to commit to a full package. Omg, its like test driving me as your life coach! My husband's going to love all these car metaphors. If you're interested you can use the link in my bio to schedule a discovery call for all the details and to ask questions. 💗

Hang in there Momma! And do something fun for yourself today! 😘
