Welcome to My Life: Family, Wellness, and Resilience

Hello, and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here to explore this digital space, which I created as a resource for anyone navigating the unique mix of roles, challenges, and triumphs that life can bring. As a military spouse, homeschooling mom, bariatric patient, breast cancer survivor, and Amazon influencer, I wear many hats, each of which has shaped this journey and given me a unique perspective. Through my website, I hope to share stories, tips, and insights that may help you, inspire you, and even make life’s journey a little easier.

Why I Created This Website

Life has a way of presenting us with unexpected twists and turns, each bringing its lessons and strength. Over time, I found myself seeking a creative outlet—a way to connect with others, share my experiences, and build a community of people who understand what it’s like to juggle so many responsibilities while trying to stay balanced and find joy. This website brings all those experiences together, creating a place where I can share practical advice, personal reflections, and useful products that make a real difference in our lives.

I know I’m not alone in these experiences. There are so many parents, spouses, wellness advocates, and survivors out there who are seeking community and meaningful insights. Whether you’re interested in homeschooling tips, recovery stories, wellness ideas, or just a supportive space, I hope you’ll find something here that speaks to you.

About My Journey: The Hats I Wear

Each role I play has influenced my perspective and purpose here. Here’s a little about each one and how it shapes the content I share:

⚓ Military Spouse: As a Navy spouse, I understand the importance of resilience and adaptability. The military lifestyle requires patience, planning, and flexibility, from frequent relocations to extended deployments. I’ll share tips and resources that have helped me navigate this lifestyle and build a strong support network, and I hope to offer some encouragement for those in similar situations.

🎒 Homeschooling Parent: Homeschooling has become a rewarding and challenging journey that allows me to be more deeply involved in my children’s learning and development. I’m constantly on the lookout for creative ways to teach, keep learning fun, and tailor education to each child’s unique needs. Here, I’ll share educational resources, homeschooling strategies, and ideas for creating a learning environment at home.

❤️‍ Bariatric Patient and Wellness Advocate: My health journey took a big turn with bariatric surgery, which has brought many changes to my lifestyle and wellness practices. The transformation has been as mental as it is physical, and I’m passionate about sharing the ups and downs of this journey. My goal is to offer tips, motivation, and a reminder that self-care is crucial, no matter how many other things we juggle.

🩷 Breast Cancer Survivor: Surviving breast cancer has taught me more about strength, perseverance, and gratitude than I ever expected. While the recovery journey has been long, and the physical and emotional impacts are ongoing, I’m here to share my story with others who may be going through similar challenges. I aim to offer hope, solidarity, and tips for living with strength and optimism beyond a diagnosis.

🛍️ Micro Influencer: I love discovering and sharing products that genuinely improve life. I use my Amazon Influencer platform to recommend items that have been helpful in my journey. From educational tools for homeschooling to wellness products and household essentials, I carefully curate lists of items that reflect my values and needs. I aim to save you time by highlighting tried-and-true products that can enhance your journey.

This journey has shown me that wellness is holistic, encompassing not just the physical but also the emotional, mental, and spiritual.
