My BAD habits with working from home…

(Cue – Bad Habits By Ed Sheeran)

November of 2021, 20 months after the pandemic began, I just STARTED to realize that I had created really bad habits.

Granted my life changed drastically in those 20 months, becoming a homeowner, a dog mom, and a baby mom, not to mention going through an unprecedented pandemic. As a result of all that, my daily rituals and habits drastically changed, and not in a good way.

The Art of the Start

In college one of my majors was Entrepreneurial Studies, and “The Art of the Start” was a book that was on our required reading list. If I am being completely honest, I never actually read the whole book… my dad did and he loved it. 😉 Regardless of not reading it in its entirety, the title always stuck with me. The Art of the Start.

Becoming a mom

It has taken me a month and a half to be able to have the headspace to even attempt to or want to write a blog again. Then it took another 2.5 weeks for me to sit down to write it. Then the minute I did Mr. Parker decided he wanted to be held and sit with me. So here we are, trying to sneak in sentences, with one hand, while holding a baby who is trying to push out a poop. #momlife

Body Talk

I was inspired to write this blog after listening to a recent podcast between Rachel Hollis and Amy Porterfield. Two dynamite women tackling the topic of how women feel about their bodies. It was so good, I had to continue the conversation on this platform.

Forewarning, they are the most delicious little snack, and you MUST make extras. I hope you love it as much as I do.
