Some people say fear is the enemy…That it’s something to avoid, something to eliminate, and that if we are fearful, we are weak. I disagree. Fear is the only thing in existence that can give us courage. If we can’t learn to sit with it, experience...

Before kids, as many twenty-something’s do, I wasted a lot of time doing senseless shit. Most nights, you’d be more likely to find me at a bar or at home with a drink in my hand than anywhere else doing anything else. Even after having kids (when the...

WRITTEN BY LILY UGBAJA Who is a mother? What is her purpose, her higher calling? I thought I had all the answers 3 years ago until suddenly I didn’t. We were on our way back home from church that sunny Sunday afternoon when my 2 year old threw a major tantrum. It was...

This year has been a year of MASSIVE change for me and my family. Not only have I created and launched a business AND a blog while staying at home with my babies, internally, I am not the same person I was last fall. Not by miles. My emotions and thoughts are...

No one really wants to be ordinary. Whether we acknowledge it or not, we all yearn to be different. To stand out. But in a way, that makes us all the same… doesn’t it? For as long as I can remember, I’ve always felt this divine awareness that...

Somewhere along the way, someone told us that because we are women and we are physically capable, we are supposed to have children. We are supposed to feel fulfilled and complete once we become mothers, because it’s our purpose. It’s what we’re made...

When I was 27, I opened a lingerie boutique that specialized in bra and undergarment fittings. I had about 8 years of experience under my belt prior to that, so it was clearly something I was passionate about and enjoyed. Throughout my career as a bra fitter, I fit...

Do you dare to speak your mind? to be challenged? to be wrong? to believe in yourself? to pursue happiness? I do. But, a year ago I didn’t. A year ago I didn’t know who I was. I was just a full time stay at home mom raising two littles, and life seemed to just...

I was 22 when I experienced my first real moment of self-awareness. I’ve had several other “aha!” moments since then, but this was my first – and by far the most substantial. Throughout my high school years and into my twenties, I found it...

When I first became a mom, I did what most millennial moms do to find friends. I hopped on Facebook and joined some local mom groups. After a couple of awkward posts that sounded like something from the romance section of craigslist, I landed a few promising playdates...
