I’m always amazed by the incredibly gifted people in my world. Today I want to give a shout out to multi-talented photographer, musician and dear friend, Michael Powell. Holla! Michael and I became friends years ago when he was playing guitar in a mutual friend’s band (more on Josie and her current band Eye the Realist another day). We bonded over LOST, a.k.a. one of the best TV series ever. I bawled my eyes out on his couch during the Series Finale. Oh, and it was a party so there were quite a few people there watching me totally meltdown……

Far too many people get upset and lose faith in themselves every time they look in the mirror. They pick themselves apart, attacking “flaws” and verbally beating themselves up for not being “perfect” rather than looking beyond their own skin. Hear Me: You are SO much more than just a body. You are SO MUCH more beautiful and valuable than any momentary image. You are so much MORE than society would have you believe! Start today to change the dialogue with your mirror, and begin to believe in YOU.

TRUTH: I love to cook and have always enjoyed experimenting in the kitchen. Sometimes I will get an idea of different flavors that I want to pair together, and I just go for it. Usually it works out really well and I have a happy honey enjoying his dinner! Sometimes, though, I honestly just want to have a nice meal for the two of us that is fancy enough to taste interesting, healthy and fresh but NOT take hours to prepare. I want to try something that is different from my few go-to favorites, but won’t require me to hunt…

My Sweet Sunrise Smoothie is so good! Loaded with natural energy to power me through a busy morning and so easy to make (less than 5 minutes!)- it’s one of my go-to breakfast choices during the week. 1 ripe banana (lots of spots on the peel) 1-2 small clementines 3-4 Baby carrots (I’m obsessed with the tri-colored, but use what you have) 1 oz cold coconut water Blend until smooth-ish and enjoy!

One of my patterns that I am trying to change for the better is that of collecting (and keeping!) clutter. Not only will clearing away and releasing clutter physically transform the space it occupies, but it transforms us by relieving added stress and creating a sense of calm and tranquility. I have seemingly always had these little stashes around the house, in every room, and even in my car of “stuff” that I have every good intention of either reusing, re-purposing, recycling or replacing. The problem is that I find myself spending too much time just rearranging it all and…

Mothers come in many different packages, and you don’t have to give birth to be a mother. I did, so this is part of my story. Without question, being a parent has been the hardest yet most important job I’ve ever done. Like most people, I had NO FRIGGIN CLUE what I was doing. Some days I still don’t! I was super excited to be a mom, even though I was not in a good or stable environment at the time. I knew that the tiny human inside me was going to change my life in a profound way- and…
