That used to be me.

I’d wait for my yearly raise from insurance company yearly cost of living “adjustments.” Theme song: Imagine by John Lennon.

Because I was afraid what people would think about me if I started selling products or even worse, if I got involved in a network marketing company.

But truthfully, when we like something, we tell people. It’s natural to want to share goodness with your people.

And the network marketing business model is the easiest business model for busy women to make excellent money from home.

So Happy May Day!

It’s the first day of the rest of your life!!

Message me and we can have a conversation!

What lesson are you learning these days?

I am learning to "Calm my Butt Down."

For as long as I can remember, it has always been about the Hustle.
The adrenaline rush of the hurry up, the FOMO (it's very real!!), the race to get it done.

But that hustle caused me to loose focus
to become apathetic when things didn't happen right away
and then to burn out.

I have a big goal now and I am approaching it completely differently.

I'm Calming my Butt Down.

Because with a calm butt and mind (same thing??), I can see that the big goal is really comprised of a bunch of little goals.

Calming down allows me to be more methodical. I can clearly see all the small actions I need to take to be able to achieve the big goal

Have you read James Clear's "Atomic Habits?" Go grab it right now!

Big Goals require a lot of small steps and there is no shortcut.
Hustle might be good in the short term but long term big goals require small measured actions over time.

Yes, over time.

What do you think?
Are you a product of Hustle?
Can you Calm Your Butt Down?

Making bone broth from Thanksgiving turkey bones. When I cook, if there is water in the recipe, I use bone broth. When I sauté, I get it started with a titch of avocado oil (super high boiling point) and bone broth. Cooking my rice, sipping warm instead of tea, soups, and even for the dogs... why bone broth?
This batch has herbs de Provence, garlic, onion and a bay leaf.
Here are 5 reasons. Thank you Lindsay Tuttle nurse practitioner:

Got broth?
1. It's Brain food
True story: Bone broth is filled with bone marrow, glycine, and essential fatty acids — all important for optimizing memory, concentration, stress, and focus

2. Your Gut Loves it
Bone broth is filled with collagen, gelatin, glutamine and anti-inflammatory amino acids, all of which are beneficial for the gut lining

3. Healthier skin, hair and nails
The collagen and gelatin in bone broth helps repair and nourish these areas of your body

4. It reduces Inflammation
The glucosamine in bone broth can reduce inflammation throughout your body and assist in relieving joint and muscle pain

5. More energy!
Bones are a powerhouse for important trace minerals. When they are slowly cooked in liquid, these minerals release into the liquid and are easily absorbed by the body

Pretty cool right? Who else is a big fan of bone broth? Let me know your favorite recipes at home or spices and oils you like to add! ❤️☀️⛰

This little beauty is blooming like crazy here and the pollinators are so happy🥳 but so is my husband!
You see, despite the fact that he totally covers up, Poison ivy finds its way to any exposed tissue.
And when he opens the stem of this plant, jewelweed, and rubs the liquid on the rash, the itch goes away and the rash dries up.🎉. Yes, he has tried everything natural that we know about, but jewelweed is the hands down winner.
So, if you are fortunate enough to have this plant growing in your yard, let it grow for the pollinators and the poison ivy people.
❤️☀️⛰
