Picking the Right Weights for Your Workout

One of the most common questions I get regarding workouts is about what weight that I am using, and what weight that you should use.  There is not a one-size fits all answer to this and there are a variety of factors that go into it, but in this post I'm going to break down the things you should consider when picking the right weights for your workout!  Read More

Traditions to Make the Holidays Magical

Each week in my newsletter, I try to think of new little "mini challenges" to send out and the one for next week popped into my head as I stared at the Christmas tree: Creating new (or new-to-us) holiday traditions!  Now that Emma is getting older and can appreciate these things, I really want to start creating a few new traditions for our family for the month of December and leading up to Christmas.  I have searched the internet and compiled a list of the ones I think are really great ideas, and I am sharing the traditions you all sent over to me that you do in your family, too!  They are all special traditions to make the holidays magical, and I hope you can find one in here you want to pick up!  Let me know if you do!Read More

Stronger Together with Rodney Strong Cabernet Sauvignon

2020 has had many ups and downs for all of us.  One positive thing that has come out of it for me, and I think for many others, is that it forced us to slow down.  To stay home.  To focus on the things that are most important and to create new moments that bring us joy.  My husband and I take in more sunsets from the porch, connect and talk about our day, and just unwind while being grateful for our health and for each other.  For us, opening a bottle of Rodney Strong Cabernet Sauvignon wine has been an essential ingredient to enhancing those special experiences with one another.  Read More
