In 2020, it was the year to take sustainability up a notch. Let's face it, most of us were stuck at home in the middle of a pandemic, it sure was a great way to spend my "spare" time learning about composting. I've been contemplating composting for the past three years! I can't believe it took me so long. I was intimated by composting, and I kept telling myself it was too much work and I[...]
Hello 2021 Cheers to a New Year! If you have been desperately waiting for this pandemic to be over, then welcome to the club. As I make the transition to pack our bags and get ready for our big move to Hawaii. This blog post will focus on how I stay on track and declutter my home with 3 kiddos under 4 years old. Why Moving can be quite an adjustment between settling into a new st[...]
Winter is almost here... As a mom of 3 little babies, I was feeling a bit lost. Waking up in the middle of the night, breastfeeding, and taking care of 3 kiddos all by myself. The days are long, but time is going fast. All this running around was taking a toll on my body & soul. I've talked about Niko pursuing a Master's Degree full-time on my Instagram. All while he's transitioning f[...]
According to the USDA in the United States, food waste is estimated at between 30-40 percent of the food supply. Looking back at my own journey, I started feeling really sad about how much food I was throwing out. I decided to simplify my kitchen and implement small changes, it really has been a blessing. I feel like it's almost a win-win situation. I'm not only getting rid of clutte[...]
Hello, 2021! 2020 was a very interesting year with Covid-19 and being stuck at home. I never thought I would be listening to an audible book or take out a book at the library like the high school days. Trying to figure out how to get back into a routine and back to my reading schedule was tough, but I managed to get the kids on a set schedule for their naps and it has been a lifesaver. I'[...]
My third and last kid just turned 3 months and after surviving 3 years of being pregnant back to back (don't worry I planned each of my pregnancy) I'm that crazy! hahah. I'm finally in a place where I can offer useful suggestions to the new mamas. Like any new mom, I walked into the baby store and I immediately wanted to run away. To say I was overwhelmed is an understatement. So many[...]
Hello to homeschooling 2020! Have you survived homeschooling? Is 2020 over yet? In the beginning of this year I would have never thought, I would be homeschooling two kids. My son Oliver started preschool last year and we continued his virtual learning until the summer started. If you have 3 kids under 4, then you understand that having 1 kid in a virtual class can be difficult. Trying[...]
For many of us it has been new to stay home with kids or work remote. Covid-19 has changed the view I’ve worked from home for over 8 years and personally having a routine helped me a lot. Don’t forgot to FaceTime your family and take a small break. 1. Establish a routine You may not be commuting in the morning anymore, but it's important to do something that wakes you up and get[...]
Starting the journey Let's face it, we've seen the shift these past couple of years on zero waste and sustainable low waste living. Everyone will approach sustainability differently. I started my low waste journey back in 2015, I was overwhelmed. I think part of the struggle, in the beginning, was having to spend an exorbitant amount of money on food and other sustainable items. Fas[...]
Welcome to the Digital Nomad life! If you are reading this you’re most likely a freelancer or in the process of quitting your full time gig (go badass girlboss). Let’s face it, while we all have busy schedules there is a time during the year (for me around Christmas holidays) that are slow. I rarely take on new projects between November through early January. The reason for this[...]
