I love thrifting and years ago before I became mommy to a hyperactive six-year-old I loved buying old books from thrift stores. One of those books I had purchased at a local Goodwill is ‘The Book of Awesome’ by Neil Pasricha. It is essentially a compilation of all the awesome things we all love—there is something it for everyone. Personally, seeing a sleeping newborn all swaddled up and seeing the cutest, fluffiest dog gives me awesome feeling. Today I wanted to share a few of my favorites with you. Taking your bra off after wearing it for hours Waking up before your alarm clock and realizing you’ve got lots of…

Fall Entry Decoration Ideas
All you have to do is search “fall front porch decor” on Pinterest and you will get thousands of swoon-worthy images that pop up to offer up some inspiration. If you’re like me, this year, I am not at all into Fall decorating. I don’t know what it is, I just have not been in the mood to pull out all of my fall decor items.

Weekend Recap & My Creative Process
My creative process is inspired by my daily life and how I feel at that particular moment. I honestly don’t wake up thinking about what to post and why in hopes of getting likes or comments on Instagram or here on my blog. Since the very beginning, I have always wanted to share curated content that is inspired and intentional because I feel that is when the universe wants me to share that particular post or words with others.

25 tips on how you can be successful just by changing how you think
Another week has started and with each new day, I vow to myself to be the best person that I can be regardless of the challenges of that day. Oftentimes I succeed and oftentimes I don’t, and that’s quite alright because I’m not perfect I’m a human being. To better myself I often disconnect from the world around me {not from being mommy, of course, b/c that’s truly my happy + inspirational place. And I couldn’t even if I wanted to}; instead I turn to books to find support and encouragement, and to learn something new. A few weeks ago, I picked up the book, How Successful People Think, by…
