30 Inspirational Quotes for Living Boldly, Healthily & Authentically

In 2017, I began sharing a quote on Instagram every Monday. I've always been an inspirational quote lover, and it was fun to find a quote of the week to share. In 2018, I sort of did away with always posting the quote on Mondays, but I continued to share words of wisdom just about every week that resonated with whatever was happening in my life at the time. Since I know that many of you also look to quotes as a way to motivate, I thought it'd be fun to share some of my favorite quotes that I posted in 2018. These words of wisdom have energized me and reminded me of what I want to focus on in life, and I hope that they speak to you in the same way. Enjoy! 1.) Be your own kind of beautiful. We constantly have the media and people around us tell us what we should look like and behave, ... [Read More]

Hi friends! Have you realized that we're smack dab in the middle of 2017? That's right, we're in the 26th week of the year. Now is a great time to think about the goals that you had at the beginning of the year, assess your progress, and re-assess what you'd like to accomplish before the year is complete. I'm a big quote junkie, and I love looking to words of wisdom to inspire me. At the beginning of the year, I decided to post a Monday quote of the week on my Instagram throughout the year. Since we're halfway through 2017, I thought it'd be fun to recap the 26 quotes that I've posted. I hope that they serve as inspiration for you to keep working towards whatever goals you've set for yourself. Before we get to the quotes, I wanted to quickly mention that my site is going ...

School’s out for my little girl ☀️& here are 4️⃣ screen-free tools that I’m using to keep my 6 year old busy and learning when we’re home this summer: 

1️⃣ @mondaymandala’s awesome array of free digital printables on just about anything you can think of 🖍️

2️⃣ @youngwildandfriedman’s amazing sensory kits that are high-quality and last forever. I have purchased a serious amount of these play dough and sensory sand kits over the years & they are worth every penny! My kiddo will spend hours setting up all of the little trinkets and building little play dough towns.

3️⃣ @Canva’s printable educational worksheets ✏️ For instance, I printed out money worksheets & am planning on doing a money lesson that includes us emptying out her piggy bank to delve deeper into currency & paying for something she wants at the store with her own 💵

4️⃣ A @brain_quest workbook — I bought one last summer as well & we love incorporating it into little lessons at home!

Spent the day at 📍Murrieta Hot Springs & thoroughly enjoyed it there! 

While we have visited numerous fun hot springs with our daughter, it was definitely nice to be out of mom mode & experience our local hot springs while our little one was in school. From hot tubs and cold plunges to saunas & clay mud, we got to kick back & enjoy it all!

This dinner at Eastern Mediterranean restaurant @ammatoli in Long Beach, CA 📍deserves a place on the grid — because sometimes, a foodie mom simply *must* book the reservation as she drools looking at the menu online, all the while having zero confidence that her mini me will be willing to eat a morsel of food there. 

Our veggie-forward dishes, the ambiance & aesthetic, the service…all exquisite at Ammatolí! Swipe to see my daughter’s obsession - their mint tea! 🌿☕️ She too left a happy camper, with a belly full of tea and warm pita bread.

Work flexibility is priceless ✨ I’m so grateful that I can work varied hours running my PR biz and do all the fun things with my kiddo on school breaks—and every Friday when we have homeschool days together!
