Celebrating Me. Celebrating You.
You know those days when you’re reading blog posts from other writers you respect and you come across THE post? THE post that makes you nod your head up and down in agreement? Our guest poster, Julie C. Gardner, is one of those writers whose audience often is seen nodding their head in agreement and [...]
This winter, as mild as it has been, is still cold, grey and desolate. We are stuck far too often inside the walls of our home, if not avoiding cold, avoiding the gazillion germs the kids are sharing. This week’s strep is next week’s croup is next week’s pneumonia. Motivation is hard to find, and [...]
This week, we are uber excited—you might even say “revved” up—to have Laura Mount, a wife, mother, and athlete, here sharing her story. Laura is a FitFluential Ambassador (that is where she and I “met”) and competes in endurance events. She is a real woman, living each day, trying to be the best her she [...]
Five days in Haiti. Many introductions of who I am, what I do, what is important to me. Building capacity became a mantra for our trip, for what is important in my life, and in what I saw as my eyes met the faces of the artisans, women, men, and children I met each day. [...]

Happy New Rear! So goes the greeting on the Spanx website. I appreciate the sentiment, I really do. I’m just not sure it’s for me. I’ve seen other bloggers mention putting on their Spanx before heading out for a night on the town. Even The Pioneer Woman shimmies into Spanx in order to look good. [...]
Mazel Tov. Two very innocent and well meaning words. They make up the Hebrew phrase used to express congratulations. And yet, having these two words spoken to me a few days ago struck me as the very antitheses of happiness. I was being congratulated on being pregnant. Except that I am not. Pregnant that is. [...]
As Just.Be.Enough. closes the door on week three of the Striiv to Be Enough challenge, the team is wondering more and more what we ever did without our Striiv devices. Robin took her Striiv to work for a total of 31,847 logged steps. Stephanie trounced the team with her 39,248 steps during this third week. Kelly [...]
My mind on our dance party, I bounced up the stairs to Abbey’s room, grabbing the latest dance mix, or possibly the Fisher Price bath time CD, from her dresser. Within seconds, I hurried down the stairs quickly and gracefully. Unfortunately, my fleece socks didn’t cooperate, and instead of lightly skipping, they slid, taking me [...]
