WIRL To Leave Life and Find Happiness.

WIRL To Leave Life and Find Happiness.

What It’s Really Like To Leave Life and Find Happiness. This is a WIRL I never expected to be sharing. To be honest (isn’t that the point here), I had no idea that I would be living in Bali, Indonesia. Or that I would truly enjoy writing. Just over a year ago I set myself free. I decided in a single moment that I wanted nothing more in life than to create endless happiness and freedom.... Read More »

How to Avoid Unnecessary Facebook Distractions

How to Avoid Unnecessary Facebook Distractions

  I know I’m not the only person who has been guilty of allowing Facebook to completely distract me from family time, work, or other things. It’s pretty easy to allow that to happen. You’re in the middle of working on something and all of a sudden your phone lights up to tell you that one of your good friends sent you a message on Facebook and the next thing you know, itR...

  Hi, I am Kristin Cogan and I am a wife and stay home mom to my 3 1/2 year old son and 14 month old daughter.  I wasn’t “looking” for a part-time job but I was introduced to Rodan & Fields by a few of my good friends.

That’s why it is important to ask as many questions as you can possibly think of before hiring a babysitter. I am not a parent, however, I am a very experienced babysitter, which is why I’d like to share with you my thoughts on this. Most parents can agree when I say that... Read More »

Beautiful Soul

Beautiful Soul

  This post from, Humans of New York, hit home with me today. Over the past 2 months I have seen the same woman on the corner right by my house asking for “anything.” She was burned by the Arizona sun, beaten down by whatever difficulties life had presented, but yet so sweet and thankful the few times I spoke with her. I rarely hand the homeless money, however I occasionally do, o... Read More »

The 10 Things That BlogU Taught Me

Guys, I’m not gonna lie. Going to a conference is hard work. But if you’re dedicated, like me, this is what you have to do. This weekend I went to the BlogU blogging conference where they run a pretty tight ship. They keep you going the whole damn time. I guess they want people to get their money’s worth or something, but I’m like, “Hold up, Ladies. I’m gonna need a nap now.” Unfortunately, this y... Read More »

What’s the Beauty “BUZZ”??

Recently I found this amazing product and I just have to share it with everyone I know!! Being only twenty years old, I still try my hardest to combat any signs of aging before it even has time to hit me! Like any other women, (at least I think), we will do anything to stay looking as youthful as we can for as long as we can! While some people like to spend more money on procedures to reverse the ...

If My Boyfriend Rapped About My “Lady Parts”, I’d Be Angry…Wouldn’t You?

So, I am all for sharing the dirty details about life and what it’s really like, but I am not so sure how I feel about Ariana Grande’s boyfriend, Big Sean, rapping about her vagina!! There are just some things you shouldn’t do or say to make money…and making your sex life public tops my list! If my husband wrote anything on social media about me in this way, I’d lose ...
