Our life is always on the go, and so busy that it's easy to miss the beauty and blessings that surround us. From beautiful Mountain views, breathtaking sunsets, to the love of our partners, there's so much to be grateful for. Yet, all so often, we take these gifts for granted, failing to appreciate their true value.

Sometimes as a single mom, I often get caught up with my family, work, and daily responsibilities. It's easy to lose sight of my own needs. However, every so often, I make a bold decision to prioritize myself by buying a ticket and going on vacation. It's a reminder that I deserve to live, love, and take care of myself.

Being a single mom is undoubtedly one of the most challenging roles anyone can take on. The juggling act of managing a job, children's school schedules, health appointments, clean clothes, homework, after-school activities, playing the role of a taxi driver, dinner, and boy can the list go on. It can often feel overwhelming. All this while ensuring your children are cared for and loved.

In this world, comparison surrounds us wherever we turn. There will always be someone smarter, someone prettier, better educated, more talented, more bold, more wild, and more confident, and there will also always be someone with less of all of those things than you!

Waking up today, I found myself shivering in the cold. The realization that my heating system had decided to take break. As a single mom and homeowner, I couldn't afford to let this situation linger. My house was cold, and my anxiety was rising.

A career change can be a scary decision. Always having the feeling of uncertainty and fear of the unknown. In my case, transitioning from a hospital job to the life of teaching was a leap of faith that became one of the best choices I've ever made.
