5 Tips on How To Get In Shape For Your Vacation

Posted on Sep 22, 2015

The vacation is booked! All of our plans to visit Fiji are confirmed, new bikinis have been ordered, spa appointments have been made, shopping trips planned, I thought I had it all scheduled. And then I looked in the mirror… Oh why did I do that? I realized that this mama’s body is not ready for the endless hours I plan to spend on the beach or poolside in my bikini. Thankfully I have a little bit of time – about 4 weeks or so. And...

A Family Day Trip to Ventura #FamilyTravel

Posted on Aug 25, 2015

We love day trips – especially during the summer. They are a great way to get out, try something new and explore without having to do a lot of planning or to put in a lot of travel time. This past Sunday, we drove north to Ventura, a lovely town directly between LA and Santa Barbara in Southern California. There is a beautiful harbor in Ventura, a Pier, sandy gorgeous beaches (one with a pirate ship zip line and playground on...

5 Things to Say to Your Kids Everyday

Posted on Aug 20, 2015

Every new day presents us with an opportunity to help our children grow. We nurture them, we guide them, we make sure they have everything they need, but do we remember to actually talk to them? Beyond the obligatory I love you with eye contact that is… I try to. I do my best to choose words that not only tell my kids I love them, but words that will enable them to be the best people they can be. And is not always easy to do. But it...

Day 9 About Malibu – The Malibu Farmers Market Each Sunday from 10am – 3pm, near the Malibu Courthouse and Library, local farmers and artisans gather to sell their goods.

Date nights are super important to every healthy, conscious relationship. Every couple needs a chance to step out of their normal routine and into a fun evening filled with opportunity to reconnect, laugh and revitalize. They are what keeps us close. They can be what keeps us sane. So why are they always the last thing we remember to do? When The Manhattan of Camarillo invited us to visit their restaurant, I realized it had been a...

Wellness Retreat

Posted on Jul 28, 2015

Everyone loves to take a vacation. To get away from the daily grind for a while and switch gears into holiday mode. But you can only drink so many pretty little drinks with an umbrella, and sit on the beach or tour museums for only so long. And do you really feel refreshed afterwards? Or do you come back from that needing a vacation… from your vacation?! Instead, try going on a wellness retreat! What is a wellness retreat? A...

A Reminder

Posted on Jul 20, 2015

Last week I was reminded of a very difficult lesson. One that I have learned in the past, but life gets busy as a mom starting a business, this lesson got lost for a little while… I got a little lost. Last week a very special light in this world went out, unexpectedly. One that had brightened a few of my days when we were living back in Rhode Island and brought me smiles here in Malibu. One that had enriched the lives of many. She was...
