Misunderstood. That’s probably the word I would Misunderstood. That’s probably the word I would use to describe my profession. 🧐

People tell me how lucky I am that I can just snap a picture, post it to Instagram and get paid. #LordGiveMeStrength

The truth is, there is a ton of behind the scenes work that goes into a sponsored campaign with a brand, and all everyone sees is the final product.

I try my best to instill a good work ethic and good habits into my child’s life, so I have had to explain to her a bunch that when mommy is on her phone, she isn’t playing games or just hanging out (usually. Haha.) She is working, and it’s how she gets money to pay bills. As she has gotten older she has come to understand it better, and quite honestly, some of the people who misunderstand my job the most are those closest to me and those of...uh...older generations. #boomer

When people ask what I do I typically say digital content creator, because if you say you are a blogger or an influencer people just roll their eyes at you and laugh. I’m proud of what I do and how I have built my business from the ground up, but hate the stigma that comes with it! So I wanted to share a couple of things.

1.) You can help me grow my business for free! YES! Helps a sister out. Just like, comment, share, etc. my posts, watch my IG stories, swipe up on things, tap brand tags in my stories, etc. It truly means SO much when you engage and not just lurk. 😜 But I still do love my lurkers.

2.) Swipe over from this picture and see what truly goes into what I do every day. It may change your perspective on my work, and help with some understanding and kindness. We are all just trying to do our best for our families, right? 🙌🏻

Either way, if you have chosen to “stick around” here on my account I am so thankful for you and what this job has allowed me to do. Y’all make it all possible! ❤️

Hey yall! Just sitting here taking a quick break a Hey yall! Just sitting here taking a quick break and enjoying some fresh air while I plan out my to do list for the day. I have said before how I like to get my workouts done in the mornings before getting too deep into my work or running errands, but sometimes my feet are just plain tired and sore after! 

However, as a mom, I know I have to power through and can't let that stop me from getting all the things done!  I am currently loving @OOFOS recovery footwear, especially these awesome purple camo pair! They have just enough sass to go with the amazing comfort they provide! Perfect with workout clothes, or your everyday "let's run errands" clothes. My feet thank me every time I put them on! 

Look at the time, I better get moving. Have a great day everyone! sponsored #PurpleCamo

We are heading back to the beach in May!🎉 We are working with a favorite brand of mine we will chat about later, but we are excited to go back to #OrangeBeach and will be taking my parents along with us. 

We went together last June and had a great time, and this year we decided to push it back a little so that it would be a little less crowded. And what a fun way to spend Mother’s Day weekend, right? 🏖 

I will be sharing on stories live so be sure to follow along. How can you make sure you see my stories? Go watch a few right now and then the algorithm with start showing you mine more often. Or you can react or comment on some stories. 

Like this swimsuit? Click this photo in my profile to purchase. I love it because it comes in long length! 

What is your favorite thing about the beach? Comment below and I will pick one winner tomorrow to get a free coffee on me!

Happy @rundisney #StarWars virtual race weekend! ✨ 

Here is a throwback from one of the years @bobbymontg and I ran the half marathon together. We had so much fun! 

I know we still aren’t racing in person, but I feel hopeful that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and that we will all be together again soon for amazing expos, silly character pictures, and emotional finish line celebrations. Hang in there my friends, and a huge CONGRATS to everyone running the virtual events this weekend! May the force be with you!

Have you run the Star Wars races? Are you a Star Wars super fan like my hubby?

#Unileverpartner Ever wonder what you can do to he #Unileverpartner Ever wonder what you can do to help those struggling with food insecurity? Right now there is a super easy way, so listen up! 

When you buy participating products from Lipton®, Hellmann’s®, Best Foods® or Knorr® at Walmart, Unilever will donate a meal to Feeding America®! Also, interact with the augmented reality experience on Fight Hunger packs to see what it feels like to drive a race car, watch a special video from Justin Allgaier, and even take a picture with him! 

There are also four Knorr® recipes that can be downloaded, and, by interacting with the experience, I'm so glad that @walmart and Unilever are making it easier than ever to help “Fight Hunger. Spark Change.” I (and they!) believe that fighting hunger isn’t just about feeding physical stomachs, it’s about feeding dreams, hope, and possibilities for everyone! 

For each participating Unilever product purchased at Walmart from April 5 - May, 3, 2021, Unilever will donate the monetary equivalent of at least 1 meal ($0.10) to Feeding America®. Unilever guarantees a minimum total donation of $250,000. Maximum total donation $1,000,000. $1 helps provide at least 10 meals secured by Feeding America on behalf of local member food banks.

👉🏻My word for the year is balance. I’m try 👉🏻My word for the year is balance. I’m trying to do a better job of balancing my work and play schedule, my food choices, and prioritizing things in my life that I really want.

I was reminded by a wise person that everyone has the same 24 hours in a day, so saying you are too busy for something or don’t have time for xyz means you are putting your priorities somewhere else. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing depending on what you want for you life, but it’s a good way to keep yourself in check. 

What are you doing with your 24 hours? Can you think of any areas that need to be reevaluated so that you can reach your financial, family, or career goals? 

🚨Sometimes we have to let good things go in favor of what is best, and that can be a struggle. 🚨

So tell me what you want? (What you really, really want, for all my Spice Girls out there) Do you have a balanced plan to get you there? What is an action step you can take today towards a more balanced tomorrow?

For instance, I had a cheat meal at lunch so I’m planning healthy meals for tonight and tomorrow. Look at me being all balanced! 😜

👉🏻Last night, Bobby had a basketball game at 👉🏻Last night, Bobby had a basketball game at the church. Emma Kate came along, and since I'm pretty competitive, I found myself yelling, cheering, and just generally being my loud self. 

I quickly noticed that every time I cheered, Emma Kate cheered. If I yelled for the team to box out, she did too (even though she has no idea what it means and after we had a long chat about rebounding.) 

This is nothing new, my mini me is always copying me, wanting to dress like me, be with me, and talk to me. When I ask her what she wants to wear, she says "what do you want me to wear?" When I ask her what color shoes she wants me to buy her, she says "what do you want me to have?" She even changed her favorite color from purple to pink because pink is my favorite. 🎀

It happens so often, that sometimes I forget she is watching my every move, and picking up on my habits (even bad ones, eeekk!) 

Last night was a great reminder that I have SO MUCH influence and responsibility when it comes to how this tiny human will turn out. It can feel overwhelming, but it also helps me keep my attitude and responses in check. I want her to grow up and remember how well mommy handled the hard times, how I trusted God to take care of the family, and how I treated people. 

I know moms, I KNOW how exhausting the questions, the following around the house, and the mimicking can me. But I'm going to try to be better about teaching, guiding, and letting my actions speak loud. But all that will happen after I go pour myself another cup of coffee. ☕️
