Freshman 101

I was sitting in my daughter's high school back to school night and I was impressed by the way the school presents the keys for success to our kids. I do not remember ever learning about success in school other then from a poster or two hanging on the walls. But, what got me excited is my daughter's school actually has a whole class about it for incoming freshman. The class is called Freshman 101 and the goal is to shape our kids early and share tools for a successful life! I quickly… Continue

Mother Theresa's Words of Wisdom for Women

A friend of mine shared this inspiration with me a while back. I know I've layed eyes on it before but it has never resonated with me quite as much as it did this time around.

The verse, originally penned by Dr. Kent M. Keith, is titled "The Paradoxical Commandments". Mother Theresa's adaptation was found written on the wall in her home for children in Calcutta. She was an amazing and saintly woman that I was in awe of as I watched her selflessly work for her God and all… Continue

Inspire the Best You- By, H.O.T. Mom Miriam Cash

Be the best YOU you can be! Present the best you in all ways. How do we accomplish this, you ask? Many times we are rushed, we are stressed, we are tired or sick; the moon is full, the kids are angst-ridden. However, when all is parallel with the universe we can strive to be present in who we are.

I was working on this task the other day, actually. With a birthday around the corner I was reassessing who it is that I want to put out there to the… Continue

God, You are God

God, You are God
No matter what I've done
Your promise is to forgive me
70x7, if only I repent

Your Holy Spirit guides me
May my fruit bear Your Way
for God, You are God

Let’s share new ways you can take action in your life and Rediscover the Me in mommy! As our kids step on the bus, we wave goodbye and start our day. Many of us go home to the same old routine of work, laundry, grocery shopping, list making, and paper shuffling. Self-discovery is usually not going on over a pile… Continue

Half the battle is getting there!

The first step in being successful on your path to fitness is this: Just Show Up! Teaching fitness classes has made this phrase a part of my life. Whether it’s a fitness class, meeting a friend for a workout, or getting on my treadmill, the first step to making it happen is showing up!

The Invitation

The Invitation By Oriah

I want to know what you ache for

I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool

for love

for your dream

for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...

I… Continue
