The truth is, you don't break a bad habit; you replace it with a good one."Denis Waitley We often think about breaking bad habits, but did you know it takes 21 days to create a new one? This is where you have to choose your hard. Would you rather focus on getting rid of a… Continue reading Choose Your Hard

T.G.I.M.
Yes, you read that correctly - Thank Goodness It's Monday. Now before y'all think I'm crazy, hear me out. Monday is a new week and a fresh start. It's a chance to leave the things that didn't serve you well last week exactly where they are - in the past - AND it's a chance… Continue reading T.G.I.M.
Okay, Monday. Let’s Do This!
Hey friends! Happy Monday and Happy New Week! I am just getting back into the swing of things because I was on Spring Break last week and off from teaching.

Creating Balance (Part 3)
Hello, and welcome to Part 3 of my Creating Balance Series! We have already tackled the 'what' and 'how' of creating balance, so today we will look at that all-important 'why.' Before we start, let's take a moment and break down what balance can look like because it is different for each of us. The… Continue reading Creating Balance (Part 3)
Creating Balance (Part 2)
I was very careful when choosing my words for the title of our balance series because often you will hear 'finding' balance, not creating. If you had a chance to look at Part 1 of our balance series from the other day, I addressed the quote from Jana Kingsford: "Balance is not something you find,… Continue reading Creating Balance (Part 2)

As I was looking at my [ever-growing] pile of books (I will be buying those bookshelves… Continue reading Perfectly Imperfect
Your Permission Slip
When we were in school, we needed a permission slip for many things: playing sports, going on a field trip, participating in a club after school. As we got older, we no longer needed a permission slip to do these "extra" things which is good (for the most part). You see, the idea of a… Continue reading Your Permission Slip
Shed the Shame
Hear me out on this one today... It's okay to NOT be okay. Now, this might seem different from my normal Monday posts, and it might seem counterproductive to self-care, wellness, SEL, and all the good vibes I usually write about. But, it's actually not. It's essential to understand, validate, and accept our feelings -… Continue reading Shed the Shame

For anyone who knows me, they know I LOVE making lists. Sometimes it's because my brain can't handle ONE. MORE. THING.
