Grief makes the holidays even harder

Reach out to someone you know who has lost someone, and let them know you're thinking of them. It won't go unnoticed.

To help my children make the right choices, I want them to remember this one phrase

“Whatever you do child, do not let it be at the cost of your beautiful heart.”

Parenting

Our kids are watching—let’s teach them how to love who they are

It’s time to be our own cheerleader, to pat ourselves on the back and to cut ourselves some slack.
