I quit.

Um, yeah. did you guys catch it? I subtly announced it on FB earlier this week, but you had to look REALLY closely to catch it.

Productivity Consultant. My new favorite word.

I recently have done a little soul searching on what I want to do with coaching and what I have done over the last few years and have decided to take a little bit of a different path. So I am not quitting my health and fitness coaching, but changing. Because change is good right? And you have to change to get better.

I have decided that overall productivity, mastering routines and helping implement change is my thing. I have been doing it for over 15 years with big corporations so why not take what I am passionate about and do it with you? Let's master that to-list, get over that anxiety, finally start something and finish it and do it all with some awesome energy! (That is where the workouts and clean nutrition comes in).

You might ask, well what does all this mean? I have found a love for taking my 9-5 organizational business skills and diving into my passion of helping women transform their lives by finding time for themselves, living a healthy sustainable lifestyle and finding time to dream. Shine a little brighter.

I will take your daily chaos and personal goals, navigate through and help you get your glow back!

Some things will stay the same. Some things will change. Look for more focused content on mastering to-do lists, quick wins and how to crush the rush of daily life. (Tested by yours truly and a certain set of unruly toddlers!)  I'll be sharing my favorite time hacks, recipes and how I have been staying on track through the busy day to day life. One thing I know for sure is this adventure is just getting started. Stay tuned for some exciting announcements in the next few weeks!

In the meantime, here is some inspiration for your weekend. Don't ever quit. Just change your path and write your own story. And if you are looking for a good read, check this out!

The Friday 5! - Playdough, Capes, Lattes and Fashion!

I have been thinking about starting a new blogging tradition called "The Friday 5". Its essentially a recap of the week including my favorite things, events and really anything interesting and fun! So here goes...

The Friday 5!

#1 The little people discovered capes, playdough and "dolls" appropriately named "Susie" and "Sally" this week. Lesson learned...all toys should be EXACTLY the same. If one doll is pink and the other is purple its is WW2. We have also mastered the word "zoom" and fly around in our capes most nights after dinner.

(Hair bows, hair style and all things "hair" is another topic! aka, AH!)

#2 The pumpkin spice latte (or chai tea which is what I LOVE) is back. I just want to go put on my fall boots and jump in the leaves.  There has been quite a focus on the fact that Starbucks is now using "real" pumpkin. I can't taste the difference, but it does make me feel a little better knowing I am not completely falling of the "clean" eating wagon when drinking it.

#3 I am pretty much OBSESSED with fall clothing right now. I may have found matching infinity scarfs for the girls and I :) This goes along with #2. One of my biggest inspirations for working moms and transition clothing is here. New fall lines are popping up everywhere and NYC Fashion week is this week. (aka, my dream world!)

#4 We are making this for dinner next week and I am SO excited. Anything crockpot and BBQ pretty much gets an A+ in my book.

#5 I am starting to carve out more time to read more at night (well I have thought about doing this and implementing it this weekend! I used to be really good at it...) I have been wanting to read this for a long time. I am about 1/2 way through and its super motivating. #girlboss

So there you go! Essentially my moments of the week and hot topics all wrapped up into one :) Have a great weekend!
