I didn't know what i didn't know about the fight for racial equality until this week. I'm sharing with you what I've learned. I'm hoping to help start the conversation and help those that are wanting to understand understand a bit more.

Today's episode explains how and why our baby got her nickname a dragon. How her first two years changed me. It was a hard two years. I'm hoping this episode helps mama's who may be struggling with hard babies (colic, non sleeping, constant crying). You are not alone!

Today's episode is helpful for mama's going through a medical diagnosis of a child. But  a lot of it can be used during other times of need. So even if you don't have a child with a medical diagnosis be sure to listen maybe you'll hear something you need to for yourself or someone else! <3

Lets talk about comments vs compliments! While I talk about this setting with a mom scenario it really can be beneficial for anyone to hear it.
