Mindfulness | COVID-19 Bucket List
As we all adjust to the ever changing normal of the Coronavirus pandemic, it is important to keep busy. I am one of those people who just cannot sit still. I like to be doing and going all the time. With the advice of the CDC and other Public Health Officials, I find it hard [...]
Finished Reading | Guide to Slow Living
In my own personal effort to live more ethically, I've been introduced to so many people & brands that support living more slowly.

Mindfulness | My Experience with Anxiety
I worry about things I shouldn't. Everyone does this. So this post is for you and for me. There are lots of ways we stress because of our jobs, difficult choices, mean people, and so on. (Mostly it's mean people, but I digress.) Some let go of stress more easily than others, while some can [...]
Brand Highlight | Net Zero
I was provided these products for free to share with my audience through the Ethical Influencer Network, all opinions are my own. I've been slowly transitioning pieces in my kitchen and bath to more sustainable options.
