Back to School Vibes

Being a mom is weird. This past week my kids jumped back into the school routine. I don't know if you're like me, but routine changes are hard for me. I love being in control. I love plans and being early vs being late. I like having my shit together. Routine changes, they remind me... I NEVER have my shit together. This year, we have two boys riding the big bus to school each day which makes my morning routine much easier because I don't have to leave the house! But honestly, this year was harder for me, emotionally. We've had a good summer. We've enjoyed time at home, went on adventures, they laughed and played & got along SO GOOD all summer (which makes it easier for momma to work.) This summer we genuinely got more time together. If you know me and my story, quality time is all I ever want. It was my goal with my business to create freedom for my family. So being able to have the flexibility and freedom to do what we wanted when we wanted; that was LIFE. I...

Turkey Run Start Park

This weekend we decided to get away for the day. Our family needed an unplugged day outside with each other. Honestly we have only hiked together a few times because, well kids. Its hard with 3 littles all so close in age. When one wants carried, they ALL want carried. With summer coming to an end I'm making it a goal to get outdoors before it's too cold. Anyways, we decided to go for it. It was a drive for us, but came prepared. We packed extra outfits for the boys along with food for lunch. If you're like me, you're all for saving money so here is what we had! We  prepped a cooler with fruit, tortillas, lunch meat -- specifically chicken and pepperonis-- cheese, crackers, carrots, raisins; just things that are simple, easy & we can take on the go. PLUS lots and lots of water. In the map we weren't sure where to plug in our GPS so we stopped by the camp store before we  went too far and the cashier was sooo helpful. The shop was awesome. In front o...

Who am I?

Hey there, Thanks for stumbling upon my blog. I'm not sure what brings you here, but I hope in my words you can find just what you're looking for. Before I dive in, I feel like I need to tell you who I am. I'm Deidra, the writer, the momma, the doer. Literally I wear like a hundred hat. I have 3 amazing boys who I get to stay home with daily. My husband Kenny is my best friend & biggest supporter. He is a union carpenter & the best daddy to our boys. Raising a family, now that shits hard. Its a full time job in itself. On top of that I'm also a virtual health coach. Each day I get to wake up and share my heart, my journey and inspire other women. Being a "health & fitness coach" is something I literally NEVER would have imagined. I'm the girl that hates physical activity and can smash a pizza like nobody's business. How this fell into my lap, well that's a different story. But every single day I get to wake up passionate about hel...
