I want to talk about single parenting at the stigma that I feel is outdated. 

I remember finding out I was pregnant (and single) and flipped out! This episode is for the mom or dad out there that suddenly finds themselves in this "situation" and might need a little encouragement. Whether you've been doing this for ten minutes of 14 years... you are valued, celebrated and downright amazing! 

I hope that you understand just how awesome it is to be a parent... a single parent... and/or the child of a single parent. 

Even if you come from the "traditional" family setting, I hope you give this episode a listen. 

You can always send me comments, topics, suggestions, etc

Diving into relationship dealbreakers with my friend, Kami Delight

I recently asked my Instagram friends where they draw the line in the sand when you are dating. 

You’d be surprised at some of the things that just don’t fly!!!!! 

It should be noted that neither Kami nor I are relationship experts. But we did have fun dissecting Instagram responses.

Today I sit down on the one year anniversary of Nicole's death. Fortunately, this interview means that she was brought by to life by an amazing team of medical professionals. 

But her miraculous recovery isn't all she wrote, friends. 

Now, Nicole is on a mission to educate, empower and encourage pregnant women to feel confident in their birth plans... before you push! 

We sit down to share her story and some insight on the real questions we should be asking our healthcare professionals as we go in to labor an delivery. She wants to raise awareness about the risks involved - even in this current age of modern medicine. 

Grateful that her children and family are not looking on today grieving her loss, but rather celebrating her recovery, Nicole truly lives her life fully each day. 

I encourage you to give it a listen even if you feel it doesn't apply to you.

On this episode I am joined by Maggie Morrison a mindset and mental health coach.  We talk about how we met in Paris and had an instant connection but also discuss the importance of finding your tribe.  I've always been fascinated by the idea of setting New Year Resolutions and brought Maggie on to talk about it; specifically why I don't make them.

Episode #2 

Special guest, my offspring. He's a teenager so it's best not to expect a riveting conversation this time around. But he is the most important thing in my life so it seemed natural to have him as my first guest. 

Laken is 13 and my teammate. We have a very laid back approach to coexisting. We spend most of our time together from work to homeschool to travel.... this episode is just a little snippet of our life. 

We also talk about holidays and people who complain about being around their family. 

I hope you enjoy!
