It’s finally here. That time of the year when rejuvenation fills the crisp air. When the birds head south to avoid the cold morning frost and the sun sets upon us earlier in the day. The animals begin gathering their feast as they prepare for a winter’s slumber. All while we begin moving into the

In a world where opportunities are plentiful for those willing to contort themselves, we force everything in a 24-hour day.  We are socialized to think the grass is greener and more vibrate on the other side of the street.

Hello Beautiful, Celebrating women only in March isn’t enough! As there is no way anyone or anything can capture all the wonderful, life-changing, and impactful contributions by women in a mere 31 days.
