As Mother’s Day was just celebrated, my own awesome and deserving of the “World’s Best Mom” Award, Colleen, remains top of mind. My mom is my example of how to be a mom to my own kids, and she is one of my best friends (and, no, it was not always that way). I have learned, and continue to learn, many lessons from my mom and thought it would be fun to share some of them with all of you! Check out today’s blog for some awesome lessons that I learned from my mom that you might want to adapt to your life!

In the face of the worldwide coronavirus pandemic, it is safe to say that the appreciation for the entire medical and scientific community has never been higher. There is one profession among this community that defines the entire health care experience, and that is the nurse. Being a nurse myself, I might be a little biased, but here me out. All of us have had a health care experience of one kind or the other, whether it was a routine check up at a clinic or sitting at the bedside in a hospital. Go back to that time, and think about this question: who made the difference in your experience? Check out today’s blog and find out what it means for your inspiration catalyst, Erika, to be a nurse!

On the occasion of Mother’s Day, I spent some time thinking about moms and the lessons they impart to their children. Everyone’s mother teaches them lessons and those learnings are a part of who we are today. We can learn these great lessons through sharing our stories with others. Today,I want to share with you some of the lessons I have learned from my mom, Theresa Hare.

The coronavirus has dictated that we change many of the ways we have to navigate the world. Many of these new ways of living life have been very similar to how food allergic families already live. Since May is Food Allergy Awareness month, we would like to take this opportunity to share how this pandemic mirrors much of the food allergic community deals with in keeping a food allergic person safe.

Do you realize what tomorrow is? It is not only Cinco de Mayo but also, wait for it, Taco Tuesday! Wha?!? Seriously, people, Cinco de Mayo and Taco Tuesday have intersected on the same day; there must be some crazy universal alignment or something. Time to interrupt this quarantine pandemic pandemonium for something that is very much needed. Fun with a capital F-U-N!!

Anyone feeling like they are riding a rollercoaster of emotions these days? Up, down, dip, twists, turns, loop-de-loops...and that's just before breakfast!😉 During those dips and twists, I find myself thinking longingly of life before this all started. Sigh.

And, it was exactly what I needed to hear! Check out today's blog for the mindset reset I needed to emerge from this Covid strong!
