My Obsession with Pilot FriXion Erasable Pens!

My Obsession with Pilot FriXion Erasable Pens!

  I don’t know why, but ever since college I can only write with pens and not pencils. This wouldn’t be a huge issue if I didn’t have internal freak outs every time I notice that something that I wrote is off centered, doesn’t fit in the space I had, or I misspelled something. Even when I’m making notes for myself, for some reason it’s very important to me ... Read More »

What “Working Out” Means To Me….

What “Working Out” Means To Me….

I choose to stay active and eat healthy because that is what makes me feel good. It is NOT easy. It is very hard to get into this lifestyle, but trust me….once you are in it, you won’t look back. Now, I haven’t ALWAYS been active and a healthy eater. I have 3 kids, so you can imagine how many times I had to restart my “Healthy Lifestyle”. Everyone is different, so wha... Read More »

SAHM & Business owner?

  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.

I Just Want To Nest!!

I Just Want To Nest!!

With a toddler to care for all day and another baby on the way, there is not much time to think about how different life will be once the newest member of our family is here.   However, the one thing that I can’t help but focus on is how much I need to organize before said new family member arrives.  The problem with this is my inability to “nest” the way every pregnant woman wants to.  The reason...

Observations and Contemplations of a Road Warrior

Observations and Contemplations of a Road Warrior

Please excuse my lack of focus. As my family and friends know too well, I have quite an hard time keeping my attention on one thing very long.

So, here’s a snippet of what went through my head on my Monday drive. Good luck embracing my absurd stream of con... Read More »
