Last night before we went to sleep I was talking m

Last night before we went to sleep I was talking my husbands ear off *like I do* 🤪💁🏻‍♀️ about all the things and I said “I really want to mix it up for Moses”. I told him how I feel like he’s in a new phase and needs more time and can handle more “you do this while I do this, but we are still together” activities. So I decided to see how I felt this morning before inviting him on my Tuesday morning trek. From a live video in my car to the coffee shop for a work sesh before chiro! He did his math in the car quietly while I did my @diamondworkbook live and he totally rocked it. Stayed consistent, focused, quiet, etc. then we went in the coffee shop and worked on phonics/reading/writing and of course he got a treat. We had so much fun at one point I think we were annoying the table next to us 😂 we finished up his lesson and then I told him he could play on his tablet for a bit while I did a few things - and I kept peeking over my computer and getting teared up. Truly, these are the best days of my life. Getting to be with him and there for him and also find a way to make my thing work, gosh. I just kinda feel like I hit the jackpot. ❤️

Can’t explain to you how magical each of these w

Can’t explain to you how magical each of these women is in their own way in a photo, but I will just leave it at this: get into our clan and they will love you. Encourage you. Pump you up. Hug you. They’ll even suffer through a night of “had an allergic reaction to a toxic cleaner and and am snorting, snorting, peeing, coughing at midnight” with you and not even be mean about the fact that you kept the whole cabin up #justsaying

Have you ever done an insta story and your spouse

Have you ever done an insta story and your spouse is watching it and you feel this weird like “turn it off until I leave the room” feeling? Or you hear your own voice on camera and you’re like 🧐 “is that really how I sound? Turn it off!!!”

Yesterday the virtual Diamond Bound day kicked off with my session and we watched it at our watch party. It was a huge practice in vulnerability to sit there, with my team, all watching me on screen.

I knew it would be kinda weird and uncomfortable but I had already decided to just lean into it so when it came on I just decided to embrace every feeling I had.

I decided Not run from it and get snacks set up, or drinks made, but actually sit there, watch myself, and take in the weirdness.

By the middle of it, I had gotten comfortable WITH being uncomfortable.

And here’s the thing, in the process I realized we cannot give to OTHERS when we are thinking about ourselves. 😳💣

Because analyzing my significance makes my focus on me instead of the incredible people around me and the connection we experience.

Wishing us all contribution over significance. 💞

HAI FROM THE MINIVAN - 6 funny thoughts for the fi

HAI FROM THE MINIVAN - 6 funny thoughts for the first day of fall 🍁
1️⃣If you haven’t tried @whistlestopcoffee BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE COFFEE yet, are you really living your best life?

2️⃣The best conversationalists are generally interested in just about everything. Interested IS interesting 😮

3️⃣ I take kids vitamins and honestly, I think we all should. They taste like candy so it’s easier to remember.

4️⃣ What would it look like to spend the next 30 days making your spouse a raving fan? 🤯

5️⃣Kids just shouldn’t skip naps. Literally nothing good has ever come from a child skipping their nap

6️⃣ @aldiusa really is the cheapest and best place to get good groceries these days. I keep trying other places and I always land back at aldi.

My 2020 quarter 4 strategy

My 2020 quarter 4 strategy

When E and I got married we lived 600 miles from m

When E and I got married we lived 600 miles from my family. I always hoped and dreamed that someday we could see each other more than 2x a year, but it didn’t look promising. They worked there. I was here.

Until it changed and I can’t even explain how all the cards aligned but I called my dad one day and said “how much do you get paid”? He told me and I offered him something more 🤣 to be my shipping manager and director of crazy town.

They pulled into town a week later and Lennon was 1 year old.

She’s 4 now and she adores Grammy. Moses has his Grammy and pops at his first soccer game tonight. Mack sat on dads head the whole time and screamed “go go go, mo”. Baby kicking me and so firmly pressed into my bladder the entire time but I know she’ll fit right in with the clan.

Wild dreams can come true, friends. They really can. I have nothing but gratitude and I say it all with open arms and hands because I know nothing is promised. When it’s not promised, it’s not expected. And when it’s not expected, wow it feels so beautiful and full of gratitude.

If it works, you can all thank me 😅

I’ve seen 2020 be the catalyst for some of the most intense things.... and even in my personal life, it’s been one of the hardest years of my life. I’ve seen breakups and losses and anxiety etc etc and somehow in the midst of it the most inspiring thing about the human spirit has been present. The ability to adapt, emerge, and stay committed to growth.

It is simply inspiring.

I love you.

The backroads were beautiful. Their winding ways,

The backroads were beautiful.
Their winding ways, keeping me on my toes.
No time for distractions, I’m fully present.
Make sure I get where I wanted to go.

The tears came streaming down my face
As I thought of myself from within
No perceptions or evaluations
Just me and my own view of me.

They say not everything worth counting gets counted.
And that not everything that is countable counts
Somehow I find myself checking the speed and laughing because I can’t figure that out.

Not for the safety, but for efficiency sake
When will the backroads finally teach me my lesson?

I know it. In moments, I know it. By myself in my own space I know it.
I remember me, there.

I sure hope I have a fun time.
At the end of my time. I really don’t think I’ll care if the highways were faster. I really don’t think I’ll care.

If the magic is the beauty and the journey is the process can I just stop looking at the speed. If the magic is the going and the learning and the growing can I just stop checking the speed?

I’m so thankful to have been invited to speak at

I’m so thankful to have been invited to speak at @diamondboundevent and now that my portion is done, I can get even more excited about our team exclusive retreat / watch party weekend!

We rented out this camp and it’s **legit** the coolest! I’m so excited.

I’ve also had so much fun this week being with other speakers who “get it”,...

This babe is growin like a weed, kicking me harrrrd, and I’m plum exhausted.

Tomorrow I’ll spend a few hours busting through my month end / hustle Friday / idea list and then meet my mom for her Silver + retreat an hour away. 24 hours with that crew and I’ll be headed back home to kiss my babies and man.

2020 has been weird but somehow this week felt “back to normalcy” in some ways and it is so, so amazing.
