Like many people, I wear multiple hats: mother, wife, sister, friend, business professional, yogi, coach, and teacher.

What I’ve come to learn is that cultivating wellness and finding balance—while juggling life—is a practice. I love the word practice because it implies consistency. But even more importantly, it allows room for imperfection.

Is it always easy? Of course not.
Do I fall off the wagon? Absolutely.

I get it. Life can be stressful and overwhelming.
Just like you, I juggle life….in my case it’s a career, marriage, motherhood, and hormone shifts.

I've navigated the corporate hustle. Earned an MBA at night while working full-time. Raised kids. Coached their soccer teams. Drove them to all the activities. Renovated a house, another. Then built a new one. Take care of the dog. Manage the endless cycles of groceries, cooking, and laundry. I volunteer in the community. Show up for family and friends.

Not to mention dealing with life’s curveballs—like flooded basements and broken bones.

And yes, things inevitably get out of balance.

But one thing has always remained constant: I’m kind to myself, I consistently show up, and I nurture my own well-being.

Self-care isn’t something I squeeze in—it is a way of life. So I can show up better for the people I love. For all those hats I wear, I’ve learned that prioritizing my wellness helps me give my best in all areas of life.

To GIVE your best you have to BE your best.
