I have a lot of questions today - have you ever asked yourself, “How much do I really love myself?” I know, that’s a really random question that I have never asked myself either, but I think it’s worth asking. Do you love yourself enough to have love left over to give to others? Is it possible to love others while hating yourself?

Have you ever heard the saying, “If you want anything done, give it to a busy person?” I have found that to be very true.

Read MoreWorking from home is a new concept for most people during this corona virus pandemic. For some, it’s exciting to not have to wake up early to go into the office. For others, the idea of working from home in a tight space with their spouse, kids, dogs, and everything else in between sounds like hell. So how do you ensure that you are able to successfully work from home daily and remain sane during quarantine?
Read MoreLet’s be honest - often, we don’t get a lot of things done because we lack the discipline needed to get things done. If you don’t feel like waking up earlier than you should, you don’t do it. If you don’t feel like going to the gym, you don’t do it. If you don’t feel like eating healthy, you don’t do it. If you don’t feel like doing your devotion, you don’t do it. So how do we practice discipline and divorce our feelings in 2020?

Read MoreThe most amazing thing happens to a woman’s body when she’s pregnant – the miracle of carrying a baby and having it feed from you in utero is just unfathomable. The body goes though so many changes during this period, it’s no wonder, women don’t really tend to feel like themselves.
The joy comes when you get to see the tiny human you have been carrying in person. Nothing compares to the warmth you feel when you see their eyes open for the first time, when you see them smile for the first time, when they say their first words, or take their first walk.
