We women get possessed by PMS

Happy Monday! Summertime…and the livin’ is easy…. That’s how I feel when I’m at my summer childhood vacation spot, Cape Cod. I’m leaving for the Cape in a couple of hours. I look forward to this week all year. This break came just in time. Last Saturday, I served as a guest speaker at the Adult Congenital Heart Association Regional...

Happy Friday! I babysat for my two month old goddaughter (I am one of 3 ‘goddess godmammas’ to this sweet girl!) for the first time recently. The moment I put her down, she let me know that was NOT ok. I had forgotten that babies love – need – touch, especially newborns. Touch is essential to their development and wellbeing....

Happy Friday! These days we are all about marketing and branding – ads are everywhere- Facebook, Instagram, you name it. Did you ever think that we market our own personal brand- namely, our face? We all have different yet not very distinct body types but our face is our proprietary brand. It’s our defining attribute and we want – we...

Happy Friday! One year ago this month, I left my corporate job as the Marketing Manager of a large, global law firm to focus on this blog. It has been a crazy, fun, stressful and action-packed year of discovery and creativity. I got to know myself better, had the pleasure of spending more time with those furry beings for which...

Happy Friday! Bugs can be beautiful. If we just took the time to inspect some of the creepy crawlers, they would not seem so creepy. Look at that gorgeous creature in the photo. However, bugs and other insects can also be annoying, especially if they bite or sting your flesh. I have a foot full of scars from fire ants to prove...

Happy Friday! The thyroid is a small butterfly-shaped gland located in the front of the neck that produces hormones that influence all of our cells and organs and helps the body to use energy properly. If your gut is out of whack, so is your thyroid. A proper diet and balanced lifestyle are essential ingredients for a healthy gut, healthy thyroid and healthy...

Happy Friday! I started practicing yoga regularly less than a year ago. I am kind of allergic to planned exercise as in – I have to set my alarm to make this class – type exercise. However, yoga has proved to be worth it and I have stuck to it. I practice outside on the grass with positive people, work on...

Happy Friday! I finally got to my post on skin cancer. This post came about because I was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) on my face and on my back about a month ago. The nurse called me a day after the biopsy and said, ‘You have cancer in both places and you need to have mohs surgery right...

Happy Friday! I had planned to write about skin cancer today but the topic of stress and panic attacks keeps popping up so I’m going with that. I will write about my basal cell carcinoma experience next week. Again, I’m not worried about the BCC diagnosis AT ALL. Sooooo…I get stressed. A lot. I come from a family of stressy people. Calm...
