The Short & Sweet of It: Ditching Guilt, Living Fully!

Hey there! I'm a 41-year-old corporate warrior, juggling life as a wife, an only child, and a mom to a pre-teen and a teenager who are constantly on the go with sports and music. After staring down cancer, I realized life's way too short for worry and guilt. So, my Substack is all about embracing health, work, family, and peace of mind. You'll find me sharing insights on ditching the stress, fueling your body right, and living each day to the fullest. When I'm not wrangling kids or navigating the corporate jungle, you can bet I'm dreaming of my next European adventure with a good cup of coffee, enjoying the beach, or cuddling with my cats. Come join me as we ditch the "shoulds" and embrace the "can-dos!"
