April Giveaway!

by In: Giveaways, Kind Tagged: , , , , , , , , ,

  It’s no secret I’m a lover of words; good, positive, empowering and yes, FUN! Which is why I am super excited for my April Giveaway! I have partnered with one of my favorite shops, Currier & Stamp. They make personalized coffee cups. I reached out to the owner and asked if she would be willing to create one for this giveaway (She has added it to her collection, which is fabulous! You can checkout her website here Currier &Stamp) Instead of her Rise and Shine, I asked if she could do one that said, Rise and Kind and as you can see,…

Fiction Books on Bullying Your Child Will Find Relatable

by In: Bullying, Giveaways Tagged: , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Harper Collins Publishers has put together a great resource on bullying from their authors. I have personally read several of them, given some of them away and share often this link with teachers, students and friends who have issues or concerns with bullying. Most are fiction books. Some deal with bullying head on while others characters experience it. I love how students can relate to the issue through fictional characters. One of my favorites is the Guardian Herd series by Jennifer Lynn Alvarez and her newest series Riders of the Realm coming out May 1st. I love in the first…

Why I Quit New Year Resolutions And You May Want To Do The Same

by In: Uncategorized Tagged: , , ,

  Don’t get me wrong, I think New Year resolutions are a good idea and for some, they may work well. I have tried in the past to make my resolutions stick, but to no avail. I end up frustrated and feeling like a failure, so I just quit. For 2018, I decided I would crush my resolutions. I researched articles on how to follow through with them and be successful. In the process, I stumbled on an article about mantras. Mantras are rooted in Buddhism. They are words or sounds repeated to help in meditation. They have become synonymous…

Rumor Weeds

by In: Bullying, Cyber-bullying Tagged: , , ,

Last weekend my husband and I were doing yard work we had severely neglected since moving to our new home here in Tennessee. I actually like yard work. It gives me time to myself without distractions. I put on my headphones, click a favorite playlist and off I go. On this particular day, I was thinking about an up coming speaking engagement I had just accepted in  November to speak at a leadership conference for 250 student leaders in Lawrence County, Tennessee. As I began pulling weeds, I attempted to outline in my message in my head. Stooped over my…
