In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, I’m sharing 5 simple ways you can protect your peace & pour back into you.

1. Start your mornings with God – Pray, read a verse, or sit in silence & invite Him into your day.

2. Say “NO” without guilt – Protect your time, energy, and peace.

3. Get outside daily – Even a quick walk or sitting in the sun can shift your mood.

4. Talk to someone you trust—or write it down – If you don’t feel ready to open up to someone, grab a journal & let it out. Your feelings deserve space, either way. Me personally I talk to God.

5. Celebrate the small wins – You’re doing better than you think.

Showing up for yourself isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. Let’s normalize choosing rest, boundaries, & joy on purpose.

April 16, 2020      Porsha Carr

Hi friends! The other night I walked into my kid's room and suddenly my socks were wet. I annoyingly asked my girls who spilled water? Crickets. Okay, I asked again.. "it was Ivy!". Aria had no problem busting out her sister and Ivy just went ahead and took the wrap for it. Super irritated I made Ivy go to bed early and put a towel down to dry up the water. In the morning when I went to wake Ivy not only was the spot on the floor still wet but it had grown even bigger! Ivy couldn't have possibly ...

5 tips on packing lunch for your little ones (featuring. Yumbox).

December 14, 2018      Porsha Carr

Hi guys! What do you think when you hear food's like tomatoes, Brussels sprouts, or ham sandwiches? For me, I hear all of the things Ivy will not eat when I pack her lunch. Recently I have started packing lunch for Ivy to take to school because she doesn't like the lunch in the cafeteria. But even though I am packing a lunch for her she doesn't always eat it. I think it's safe to say I got a picky eater on my hands. So I thought what could I do to make lunchtime easier for Ivy and myself? ...
