With online shopping becoming more and more popular and well, Yelp, I can not tell you how much I FEAR the validity when it comes to how many stars or lack there of determine a purchase.  I mean is this person getting free swag and paid to say all this great stuff, did someone only try the product for a day and not see results and raged online?  Either way I have serious commitment issues when it comes to online shopping because of these reasons, and I tend to sit with a product in my cart for days as I research all over the internet to find some validity in it all.

So yeah, another OCD mark on me, but I can't be the only one.

WOO-HOO! 50 episodes deep and I am feeling fabulous.  Look, I have spent 10 years as a blogger/vlogger and that is no easy task, especially now with a toddler running around because mainly I want to be with him 24/7 before he tells me to take a hike.  I picked up my mic and started recording in April of last year, and now 50 episodes is a major accomplishment + I get to talk to myself just in case no one is listening...but you are so THANK YOU!

I wanted to share my 50th episode with the love I have for Netflix and how it truly is giving me such noteworthy shows to watch.  Do I secretly want to be on the set of Gossip Girl and wear all the clothes...YES! But at the age of 36 almost 37, I guess I would be too old to play a college kid...psst. I can still be a super senior college kid if you guys make a movie.  Anywho, enjoy this episode of some of my favs as well as the ones you guys voted on!

Oh... and thank you for always tuning in.  Means a lot ya'll and... hello Morocco!!!

Happy Mother's Day to all!  Another year as a mama to one crazy little boy.  Keeping the episode light and simple today with our travels to cupcake heaven yesterday, next week's episode all about Netflix, and my adorable little son taking the mic at the end of this podcast.

Throwing it back to the vinyl days Chet Tart had the drive and passion from early on to know what it takes to get to where he wanted to be.  Working 3 jobs as a TV engineer, disc jokey and producer of a talk show, kept Chet motivated and driven to get to where he is today.  Bumping into big name people, collaborations, buying a radio station, and having some of the greatest people call him for advice is because he did something right.  Chet Tart lived by something that we all should and that is to ask yourself what are you going to do to get to your goal and be careful, you are the product of the 5 people you hang with.

It wasn't just luck, it was time spent learning, making oneself public and in the know, and sleeping on the floor from one job to the next because that was the drive and passion.  That is what got him the Emerson College Hall of Fame award, that is what got him more radio stations, that is what got him memorable interviews with noteworthy people, and that is what got him what he wanted and who he wanted to be.

Chet's Podcast: Influence Today with Chet Tart & Dr. Terry Lyles

Happy Sunday, again.

So after almost flopping and not getting ya'll another episode, I lifted my tookus off the couch and jumped on board to dish out on some of the things I actually have been having conversations with my husband...and myself. (Don't judge me, you also talk to yourself). 

I thought about the things that are literally new and clearly more obvious now that I am home all day, everyday, and ultimately I am safe at home, so I am ok with that.  So...yeah, tune in every Sunday at noon (usually before because I am so impatient and I release my podcast earlier ha!) for episodes from me and sometimes my awesome guests here on the podcast! 

Be sure to leave me emails ([email protected]) or you can leave me a VM on ahttps://anchor.fm/4Point0ingLife and I'll be sure to play that out for you!

Let's be honest, being a parent with all the children home is not easy task right now.  Whether you are a SAHM or working mom, the tasks have for sure changed and in some cases, more demanding.  I wanted to sit down with a mom to get their perspective and how they are managing life pre-corona virus and now.

I am just going to say #BEMORELIKECHRISSY she was truly uplifting and real when it came down to sharing her everyday life and expectations with a house full of 3 teenagers and her husband.  Is the toilet paper an issue, eh kinda, but she will get by.  Join us today on this podcast episode and HAPPY EASTER!

We are home more, spending more time, why not take it back to before we started dating and play the dating game.  I mean being quarantined doesn't leave many options right?  (I am kidding, I have plenty to do, so calm down)

So this week my husband joins me and we play ...THE DATING GAME.

(Next week I have a guest!!!) woo!

To be honest...today's episode is #random and just us chatting.  It is what it is and I think that is the norm right now.  (If not please don't email me and tell me, I'd like to think day pj's and night pj's exist with an extra side of all over the place) Any who, I have my husband joining me today on this rainy and cool Sunday to talk about his perspective of new life, and mine with a dash of cranky toddler.

From curb side pickup and SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESSES to teaching from home, it is indeed different, but I am thankful to have this time to spend with my family.  

oh... if you are a mom and pop, parent at home trying to homeschool and work from home, or want to join me on my podcast...I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!

Yes, no need to be famous to be on this 4.0ing Life podcast...I mean hello, I'm just me (aka not famous) 

So email me [email protected] OR LEAVE ME A VOICE MESSAGE shouting out your local business so I can shout you out, or ask me some questions!!!

What happens when two girl bosses unite and dedicate their life to educating and beautifying people...you get Deux Rosé Beauty Refinery and a podcast that is buzzworthy.

Kashton and Taylor may have the lights surrounding them 24/7 in Las Vegas, but that doesn't mean their hard work and craft should go unnoticed.  Much like the want and need to become famous by owning a business, these two have talent, grit, and smarts when it comes to the how-to and up and coming.  Not only did I learn a whole lot of beauty stuff I didn't know, but I am more aware of what is a best practice and what it takes to truly own a business and juggle your life on the side.

So do these two 4.0 life.... OH YES!  

Join me today and meet the ladies of Deux Rosé Beauty Refinery in Las Vegas, and the awesome sauce podcast Rosé Room!
