I’ve switched careers from being a teacher, having an online natural parenting retail shop, to being in health and fitness and then my cottage food bakery, and now I’m in travel.
All of these careers have an impact on my life today.
The teacher in me is always there-I love to learn and educate others. I’m pro education and I want the best for our future.
When I was pregnant, I did a lot of research on all the things like most of us do. I have always been a bit of a tree hugger and going natural in this part of life was second nature. When I realized we weren’t having another child though, it was hard for me to continue my natural parenting business so I sold to another retailer in the area. 💕
At the same time, I was a bit of a hypocrite in my own lifestyle. I was not healthy and my nutrition was awful. I was making homemade baby food but eating chips and Oreos for dinner for myself. 🫣 When my toddler wanted a cookie and I said no because it wasn’t good for her, I realized what I needed to do to make changes and lead by example.
I started Insanity with Shaun T | Transformation and never looked back. I still follow his workouts (doing Max Built currently 💪) and was a coach with Beachbody until they dropped the coaches. It keeps me in shape and I love all the workout choices so I can keep my body guessing and adjust as I get older.
My bakery came about naturally as I’ve always loved to cook and bake and people wanted to buy my goodies. It honestly was something I never thought I’d do and the joy quickly fades when it’s a must instead of a want. I also needed to have an income while away from my kitchen as we’ve always been a traveling family. So I’d go on a trip, come home with an empty bank account and have to be a slave to my kitchen again. 😵💫😬 I still love to bake and I do take orders when I know I won’t be traveling but I’m super selective.
I’ve planned trips since our destination wedding twenty years ago. I didn’t know travel agents are still a thing until I realized people are too busy to spend time doing the overwhelming research and sift through the Internet. So I do that for you!
