  • Ep. 30 - The Importance of Planning the Next Phase of Life, with Jennifer Chaney

    Do you have a life plan? If not, my guest today is going to share her own story about finding hers and, hopefully, inspire you to do the same. We had such a great conversation that I divided it up into two episodes so you wouldn’t miss a thing.

    Whether you’re in early motherhood or almost an empty nester, there is much you can glean from Jennifer. I think you’re going to enjoy hearing about the experiences that led her to creating her own life plan and how she can help us all not leave ANY parts of our life to chance.

    SHOW NOTES:

    Book mentioned:

    Fair Play - Eve Rodsky

  • Ep. 29 - Celebrate YOU Exactly the Way YOU Want To!

    In today's episode, I'm sharing some thoughts on how to take a different approach for a more mindful birthday. And I've had quite a few not-so-good ones but I think I've got just the thing to keep it from happening ever again.

    Listen in to hear my own stories of birthdays past and how I see my birthday from a whole new perspective than I used to.

    I also share some ideas on how to make each year more meaningful (and less disappointing!)

  • Ep. 28 - Hydration: It's Not as Simple as You May Think and What You Need to Know!

    If you’re like me, you’ve been led to believe that drinking eight-plus glasses of water means you are properly hydrated but it’s not that simple or accurate.

    Today, I’m sharing some health issues you may not have associated with dehydration and what you need to include in your diet to ensure the water you drink actually does your body good.

    SHOW NOTES:
