Today is day 15 of my “rise and write” challenge. I last wrote on day 10 – yikes! I’m all for flexibility but I definitely dropped the ball a bit here. Life gets busy, which makes it tricky to stay on track with a new habit/goal. Believe me, I soooooo get it!!! This is important to me so I’m going …

Good morning! Today is day 10 of “rise and write.” Yesterday the babe was up extra early. Since I’m ruled by his schedule – “rise and write” didn’t happen. I did however write a post over at Peach Puree and Wine about having it all so that felt like a win :). Interesting thing happened yesterday – my current favorite …

It’s day 8 – “rise and write.” I cheated a little this morning (checked emails and prepped for my coaching sessions later). I’m missing the sun (it’s much harder to wake up without it), and I swear when it’s overcast and cloudy outside – that is exactly how my brain feels! Today my brain feels a little like mush and …

Good morning friends! Today is day 7 of my “rise and write” challenge. I took a little time out from writing the past 3 days because we had a weekend filled with festivities to celebrate my amazing sister. It is so important to celebrate the people we love and the life we live whenever possible. It’s one of the greatest gifts …

It’s day 3 of my “rise and write” challenge. It’s a rainy morning, and here I sit with my blank page… I’ve been here for longer than usual (72 minutes so far). I had something typed out and I just went in and deleted it (I know I said I wasn’t going to do this) but I kept getting stuck …

Well, it’s Wednesday and day 2 of my “rise and write” project. I find myself sitting here again with a blank computer page wondering what I’ll write today. Mark made coffee again which may be my favorite part so far. It is a programmable coffee maker so I’m not sure what exactly stops me from setting it up the night …

I have a confession to make – I keep getting stuck.  Every time I sit down to write my mind goes blank – even if I had a flood of idea just moments before. It’s like they all instantly vacate my brain and I can’t tap back into them. Even just this morning, I had ideas as I was walking …

Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, you keep staying stuck in the same place?   A lot of times we know the change we want to make, but every single time we try to make it happen, we get snapped back into our same old patterns.   Change can be tough, and that’s okay, but when …

I have some really exciting news to share with you – Fertility Coaching is now available!!! As many of you know, my 7 year journey to becoming a mom is what inspired the launch of Balance & Thrive back in 2012. The more I learned about diet, lifestyle and mindset the more convinced I became that a holistic approach is exactly the way …

I hope you had a fabulous holiday weekend! I loved how terribly wrong the weather forecast was – pretty sure my iPhone had it wrong for every single day! It was all sunshine and blue skies out this way, how about you? I’ve missed connecting with you here lately, I’ve been putting more of my attention into writing a book. …
