This week, I have a guest blog post from author Amy Carroll that will give you a glimpse into what her new book is all about. I have to tell you I'm excited to continue my journey of Breaking up with Perfect!
Read MoreI was catching up with a friend recently when I asked her how her Mother’s Day was--the tears welling up in her eyes told me all I needed to know. To be honest, mine was not noteworthy either. My husband is usually very thoughtful and generous when it comes to holidays, but this year not so much. I could easily chalk it up to the stress of us moving to a new state, a new house, a new job, a new routine, but that doesn’t make it sting any less.

Read MoreTurns out, I am not alone. For many, this holiday is a day of pain.
Read MoreWe lost our businesses, our house, and while this was happening, both of my parents were battling cancer. It was a time I will never forget. You don’t easily forget the nice, elderly man that had to come to your house multiple times to collect past due on the light bill.
Read MoreThere’s no right or wrong way to do it, JUST DO SOMETHING, your encouragement could be the light at the end of a tunnel.
Read MoreI found out through the sour grapevine that my hubby was recently involved in certain bachelor party shenanigans that he failed to disclose to me.
