Mother’s Day: Expectation vs. Reality

Mother’s Day: Expectation vs. Reality

Mother’s Day is full of contradictions and competing messages I think. I have struggled to actually enjoy Mother’s Day because of them, and maybe you have too.

Today’s oil sponsor is Citrus Bloom essential oil blend because it is my favorite and on Mother’s Day I should be able use my favorite things without explanation. Am I right? If you want to to make it your favorite too, click on the link below and/or the link to message me directly and just write “podcast” and I’ll know what you mean and we will connect.

Only as happy as your unhappiest child

Only as happy as your unhappiest child

As a mom, I know how true this statement is. One minute I can be overcome with joy and excitement for one of my child’s accomplishments or wins…and the next I am so sad for the one that is struggling. And they are never on top or down low at the same time!

Today’s oil sponsor is Frankincense because it is my go-to to keep my emotions grounded. With the emotional roller coaster that is raising kids (and teenagers in particular) I have leaned into the oil for support every day!

Going Gray

Going Gray

When I was 42 I decided to stop dyeing my hair and let my VERY gray hair grow out! I realized that anyone listening to my podcast would not know what I looked like, especially not that I was under 50 with a full head of gray hair…so here I am! This episode explains why I chose to quit covering those grays!

Today’s oil sponsor is Petitgrain because the aroma helps you to be more truly yourself and that is exactly how I felt after I decided to let my hair grow out.

Raising Kids

Raising Kids

One of my podcast community members asked me what my experience has been raising girls (I have 1) and raising boy (I have 2). I thought the question was awesome and it made me think so I thought you might like to hear my answer.

I wish we had a blend called patience because that would have bene perfect, but we don not (yet), so I went with Clary Calm. This blend support all things hormonal and believe me, it comes in handy whether you have girls, boys, or husbands!

The power of Community

The power of Community

I recently had the opportunity to be a part of an online community that forgave over $147million in medical debt! It was such a powerful experience. We can do so much when we come together for a cause.
