Oh yes...tis the return of my name not being my name...AND then being asked if I could just understand that it is spelled wrong! Wait...how is this truly a thing? So join me as we discuss the difference between a growth mindset and a fixed mindset, and yeah...how to 4.0 your life with a mindset leading you to success.

I had a weird dream last night that brought me to this podcast episode today. It had to do with high school 10th grade year for me and skittles. Specifically red skittles. Yeah, so you will have to listen in to see exactly why red skittles and kissing the wrong frogs makes sense!

Welcome Fall, welcome cool temperatures, and welcome me wishing for warmer weather. Calm down, I mean like 65 lows and highs in the 70s. I know majority of you are over the summer, but I will check back in when its freezing cold and snow on the ground. Any who, welcome back to another episode here and thank you so much for joining me!

Yup, you guessed it. Bambi crossed without an adult, and my car and her had a little whoops moment. Is this sharing a little too much, nope! Other "show and tell" a little much, yeah. So join me and let's unfold it all and how today felt like a Monday!

Make your lunch at night.

Pick out your clothes at night.

Do it at night.

I was at the playground this past weekend and I realized I was not just one type of a mom, I was many.

However here is the tea friends, this is in all fun right. Labels are used everyday and let us be honest here, the best

label we have is being a mama. Call me crunchy, sure okay. Boujee...I'll take it, but call me mama and not mom yet.

Please kids of mine, slow down with the mom stuff, I want to still be a mama or mommy. Make it cute and I won't

helicopter you too much.

I know, I get it, you're all happy for the PSL!!! I am however still embracing summer until it official ends.

So today I will allow the applauding for the upcoming Fall, but also get a little deeper on insecurities and the reality to it all!

Thanks to The New York Times article by Astra Taylor for giving me some greatness to add to this episode today.

It is official and that is that! Thursday...not Sunday, or Wednesday, tis Thursday. (HA)

Welcome back friends and I hope you're okay with driving slow to this one, because I am finding

that life is better when you slow down. I also know that if you are going to film something, do NOT

get a facial prior to filming...or if you are like me and have acne...stay away from a facial for a month prior.

Okay, okay let us do this!

I turned 40 and everything changed. That change you ask...is good!

So join me today as I spill the tea (ouch it is hot) on time.
