My favorite little baker made these scrumptious blackberry-Brie pastries for Thanksgiving. I can’t even tell you how many I’ve eaten. Watching her develop her skills has been fun and tasty 🤤
I get a lot of comments on my hair and thought I’d share the simplicity of my routine. To be clear I have been a “curly girl” for 16 years and since then have NEVER straightened my hair.
1. I am a believer in DevaCurl products and have used them for the majority of my curly journey. I also go to a DevaCurl certified stylist because it makes ALL the difference! My primary product is this conditioner. I have been shampoo free for several years though they do offer no-poo.
2. My stylist introduced me to Innersense to hold my curl definition and lock in the moisture. A little goes a long way and this has done wonders for my high porosity curls.
3. The single most important thing I did for my curls was to stop using combs and brushes. I detangle and style using only my hands.
4. I air dry whenever possible unless I’m in a time crunch or during the colder months. It’s essential to squeeze the excess water out of your curls and to not way them down with too much product. My hair dries much faster these days. #curly#devacurl#natural#styled#love#beautiful
Let me know if you have any questions, I love supporting others in their curly hair journeys.
I saw another content creator post all the Coach bags she saw in a week and absolutely loved the idea. I was in Austin this week for a health plan conference and was pleasantly surprised to see how many business women chose Coach. For once they outnumbered the Louis bags?!! I didn’t have the chance to snap pics but I wrote them all down: -Brooklyn 28 Maple -Times Square Tabby 26 Black aka Big Mama -Mini Rowan Chalk -Willow Bucket Tote Black -Coach Outlet Notebook in Dark Signature -Coach Rowan File Bag Dark Signature -Unknown Coach Turnlock (Noa pop up?) #coach#coachbag#purse#outside#bag
This little beauty is my work week companion and she is doing everything! I’ve got her packed down with my conference needs and love that everything stays put. Having feet means she stands on her own and I don’t have to hesitate putting her in a chair or on the floor by my feet. Is my back or shoulder aching??? Nnnnnoooopppe!!!😌👏🏽❤️
I woke up early this morning, feeling refreshed…well aside from latent muscle soreness after yesterday’s workout.
For the last few weeks I’ve been pushing for things to move at work, pushing my mileage while running, my weights at the gym, and generally working to keep everything in life balanced.
When I woke up today though, I decided to do none of that. I got my laundry and Sunday chores out of the way and allowed myself to rest. My only goal today was doing what I wanted and it felt sooo good. Sunday Slow Days are my new theme😌❤️ #sunday#relax#enjoy#life
When my kids were young I’d often get flack for making them do chores🙄 Did you know that chores are a part of ADLs (self-care) and key components of a child’s development?? I did.
Now that they’re older and excelling in areas related to executive function, emotional regulation, work ethic, independence, time management and life skills in general…people want to know how I did it.
First off, I didn’t, they did. I don’t take credit for the hard work my kids put into developing their lives and reaching towards their goals. But I have continually tried to equate my role as a parent to that of a teacher. To speak and to listen but most importantly to model. Set reasonable expectations, help them learn, show understanding and make room for them to make mistakes. #kids#parenting#learn#love#selfcare
I am typically not one to layer scents (perfumes) unless I’m going for a specific vibe BUT now that it’s Fall…it’s time to bring my #jomalonelondon Orange Bitters out.
I prepared my skin for this warm gourmand with base of vanilla/cocoa. The Nest Vanilla Bourbon was lightly applied, then Orange Bitters, followed by a light spray of the Seville Orange body mist to enhance the beauty of this citrus scent. What I love MOST about both of these fragrance brands is that their scents have good projection and are long lasting, I really don’t have to refresh throughout the day🙇🏽♀️#perfume#smellgood#fall

Some days I just need to rest…
