Playing catch up with my missed @voxer messages from the week and the joy-filled birthday wishes pumped straight into my ears had me burst out laughing. Had to catch a selfie of the reaction for the crew. Thanks #voxervixens @emmaisaacsdesign @mentalhealth_hypnotherapy @kim.a.flodin and @latina_livin_keto ! https://www.instagram.com/p/CjYZ3eZLIJv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#throwbackthursday to when @latina_livin_keto and I got to meet face to face for the first time last weekend! Saying things like, “Nice to meet you,” is ridiculous when you’ve spent every single day talking to one another through the ups and downs of building a business and all the life that surrounds it, but there we were, with our families saying such ridiculous things. We still dream of getting the whole international crew of #stopdreamingalone / #voxervixens under one roof together for a well earned retreat someplace lavish in Europe (oh yes @claireoldhamwest.co and @emmaisaacsdesign we are coming your way!), or walking in the woods over on the west coast with @kim.a.flodin as our guide, but these two chicks, with roots in New York found themselves where so many New Yorkers do these days: in Florida, checking out some clear waters and exotic sea life. It was an awesome day and felt like hanging with family for the day! #findyourpeople #goodtimes https://www.instagram.com/p/CPZtnkwr-Eg/?utm_medium=tumblr

Challenge accepted @emmaisaacsdesign I can’t think of a better place for the discussion of #womenempowerment to come from than this host of the @creativewayspodcast and part of the feminine force that lifts me up and carries me through this virtual venture of mine. #VoxerVixens for the win! Empowered every morning with my check-ins with Emma, @sw_slimmingstories_podcast @kim.a.flodin @latina_livin_keto and @skygirlpics #girlpower 🎙 👩🏻‍💻 I always say #stopwritingalone but it’s so much more than that, whatever your passion, if you want true success: #stopcreatingalone https://www.instagram.com/p/CDQYwP_BSVS/?igshid=1u6j4zssbg42d

Have you seen the @audible commercial where the woman who works from home chooses to commute every morning just to get her read on? It inspired me. Not even joking, I was inspired by a commercial. Am I a child of the 80s or what? Anyway, last month I had so much to listen to (thank you #voxervixens!) that I simply couldn’t get anything done. I was riveted to my own and other’s self-growth talk, but I wasn’t doing enough to see the sun or aerate the soil. Then, one morning, while waiting for my son’s school bus 🚌, the Audible commercial came on again. I turned to my husband and said, “I have to commute to work!” Needless to say, he was as confused as the husband in the commercial. But ever since, I have had the same routine: send the guys off to school 🙋🏻‍♀️, plug my headphones 🎧 in and walk — sometimes with a destination (today was @traderjoes), sometimes just a loop. Yesterday was my first challenge. It was raining 🌧 as it was today. I stood at the door and said, “Maybe I shouldn’t go in the rain...” I had a big day “at work” ahead and had gotten used to the commute being my transition from mom to #bossmom. I realized, there’s pretty much no boss in the world that wants to hear, “I can’t commute today because it’s raining!” And I realized I am one of those bosses! I went for my commute and had an awesome day. Today I did the same and rewarded myself with pink flowers 🌸 to combat the gray skies. I 💞 Gerbera Daisies! It’s been a wonderful new routine, even on these cold February mornings, but I look forward to watching every stage of the Spring growth this year on #statenislandgreenway. #lovemycommute How do you feel about your commute to work? How do you fill your cup while on the road and how do you reward yourself when making the big (even when they seem little) changes you need for your own #selfcare? https://www.instagram.com/p/B8MGvBQJbrr/?igshid=1ig7uxfty9cti
