I’m ready for something new and exciting, how about you? — I’ve only just become aware of the New Moon tonight, June 28th, 2022 and it couldn’t come at a better time for me. I’m so ready for new. Are you too? So in honor of this New Moon, I decided to put together a list of things that I’m doing…

It’s quite a conniption. — Why did you start your side hustle? Was it because you dreamed of the freedom and flexibility that accompanied being your own boss? It’s tempting to dream about your hard work paying dividends while you’re relaxing somewhere poolside, without a worry in the world. But there’s a fine line in…

After both of my children, I realized I was getting old. — I mean I knew I was getting old but there was a sunset of a before kids and after kids that was sincerely shocking. I was twenty-six when my son was born and twenty-seven when my daughter was born. Now, I think there’s something to be said for the age…

People hate on homeschooling, but if you want 5 minutes of silence like I do, this is the perfect way to do it. — I don’t homeschool my kids, not yet, at least.

Personally, my favorite romance tropes include but are not limited to dystopian fantasy romances with either enemies to lovers or friends to lovers. I didn’t realize that I love…

And other things you can do to manifest during this powerful time. — I started creating moon water to supercharge my manifestations because I needed it.

Because writing is great, but if no one reads it, you’ll never make a living from it. I’ve made a resolution to write more on Medium for a few reasons. For one, I think it helps my creativity start flowing, which I’ve been suffering from writer’s block with my third…

These are for anyone, but as a parent, I try hard to keep my extreme emotions under wraps. Unfortunately, kids have a way of getting under your skin. — Let me make this very clear; this is not a rant that my kids drive me insane or any negativity around my kids.
