Fergie & the Fire (2014)

Today started like any other day. I took the kids to school, came home, and had my first workout in almost 3 months. After my trainer left, I sat down and 90 seconds later, my phone rang. “Hi, Kate – this is Kellan’s teacher.” “Uh-oh…. what did he do THIS time…?” “The school has been evacuated, and all the children are being held at (blank). Please come get him as soon as you can.” “What about my ... Read More »

When Flying Makes You Ask: Are You Serious?

Recently I flew to Hawaii for spring break to go see my family. While on the eleven hour flight I noticed some things that made me ask, “Are you serious?”.

Neighborly WIRL Project

Are you Neighborly?

I like to think of myself as a friendly person. I like the idea of knowing my neighbors. If I needed to borrow an egg or a half a cup of sugar. If I was in need of help I would like to think I could go to a neighbor in case of any minor or even a major emergency. I would be happy to do any of these things for my neighbors. Wouldn’t you? Well I live in a cul de sac full of people and only the... Read More »

Who doesn’t love an underdog? Well, the NCAA tournament is usually full of incredible cinderella stories, buzzer beaters, close games, and suspense, but it’s kinda nice to see an occasional upset throw everyone’s bracket for a major loop, right?

  Like most women, I wear lots of hats in my life. Finding an equilibrium that suits me and my family is a constant, free-flowing evolution. As a lifestyle and wellness coach, I see a lot of the same themes with my clients as well. Sharing these common themes with each other is really important, so we don’t feel so isolated in our experiences. I’m going to lead by example with the list below.... Read More »
