  • Slow Down with Simple Soul Care Ideas

    February 3, 2021 /

    Plus a free printable for when you need to refuel! I don’t know about you, but lately I’ve been putting myself majorly on the back burner. Filling ourselves up is the only way we are able to give back and serve others, as well as our home. So if we are running on empty, we aren’t going to get very far in our relationships or goals. Enter, self care.  If you’ve been here before, you probably know my take on the term self care. Long story short, I believe we need more than the commercialized version we know today.  In searching out self care, we see these acts are often quick fixes,…

  • Life Sucks Sometimes. Minimalism Is Not Always The Answer.

    December 2, 2020 /

    Minimalism. POOF! The magic answer to solve all of life’s problems. Wouldn’t it just be so dandy if minimalism was the simple answer we’ve all been searching for? I’m so sorry to break it to you guys, and to bust all the positive vibes on the minimalist internet today, but I’d say I’m a decent way down this rabbit hole and I am living proof that life can still very much suck sometimes. Don’t get me wrong, having less clutter + chaos, and enjoying the perks of simplicity does help. One of my favorite quotes is from Gretchen Rubin’s book, Outer Order, Inner Calm. “Outer order contributes to inner calm.”…

    Our Social Responsibility

    March 15, 2020
As a mom of four daughters, and lots of toys with As a mom of four daughters, and lots of toys with TINY pieces, I’ve found the easiest way to store these items is just to toss ‘em in a bin. Our kids seem to play regardless of how organized their toys are. 
I do agree with the sentiment “less is always more” to encourage and spark the urge to play! But when it comes to fancy organization, sorry, that’s never been our jam. 
In fact? Half the time, the toy bins are all intermixed and guess what… the kids still play! I usually only sort them back out when I’m going through a toy declutter, and I fully recognize I’m sorting and organizing primarily for MY OWN satisfaction. 
That being said, no two kids, and no two toy collections, are the same. So when it comes to setting up organization in your home, be it a play space or a bathroom cabinet, do it so it works for YOU. 
What are your thoughts?
Did you know we have a free toy declutter guide on our website? Head to the link in bio and grab your free printable today!

Why share this? Because I held on to my coffee dep Why share this? Because I held on to my coffee dependency every day because I was scared of quitting. I had heard some horror stories of how bad quitting it was. And I was wimping out. 
While working with my provider, recent lab results showed how severely my body was stuck in fight or flight mode, and I knew I had to make changes for myself. Coffee was one of the first (and actually easiest) habits I needed to address. 
And while some personalities do well with tapering out a habit, others do not. Hi, I’m the others! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I knew if I didn’t quit cold turkey I probably wouldn’t be successful. 
So I swapped my coffee with other warm mugs like herbal teas and hot lemon water, and I just went for it. 
The fatigue on days one and two were present, not going to lie! But they definitely weren’t as bad as I had anticipated. The headache, now that was pretty miserable. However, overall it only really lasted about a day and a half. And looking back, was NOTHING to be scared of! 
Curious about ditching caffeine? Have you done it before? I’d love to hear your thoughts or questions! 
PS… I don’t plan to stay cold turkey forever. I actually had a small cup on day 6 and I was surprised how INSTANTLY I felt the caffeine induced anxiety kick in. I actually haven’t had a drop of caffeine since, because in this moment it just doesn’t feel worth it. 🤎

Do you try before you buy?! The amount of money Do you try before you buy?! 
The amount of money we save by shopping our home before heading out to buy something we ‘need’ … I wish I had kept a running total all these years! Received this cute little buddy as a gift, but had no small planters on hand. Welp… that’s nothing a little creative thinking, a quick shop your home moment, a few coffee mugs and some bristle blocks can’t fix! Just don’t tell my kids about the blocks part. 😂😂 
What’s one think you’ve shopped your home for recently?
