How Healthy Are you Really?


TAKE THE QUIZ

Okay, so no one asked me to write this, but if there is anyone out there like me and they are just ooober curious about what this person does in her free time welp this blog post is just for you! Allow me to go on a random tangent for a minute, okay? So you know when you have idols and people you look up to, right? And you silently wonder if they experience the same things that you do? Or is that just me? Hahaha. While I am not a celebrity, well-known, or an idol to anyone (that I know of). I do think it is important to share a little bit about myself. I can relate to someone when I know a little bit about their background. This isn’t the case for everyone, and that’s okay. 

Okay, now, let’s get to the good stuff. To paint a clear picture, I need to share a little bit about what my day-to-day looks like. I work a 9-5 M-F job. I also have set breaks & lunch breaks #corporateamerica. On Monday, Tuesday, & Friday, I have “nothing” in the evening. When I say nothing, I refer to an open block of time that is not already pre-scheduled for work. Usually, I hang out with my daughter, my friend & her kids. Sidebar: It is soooo refreshing to hang out with another mama that has children around the same age as my daughter. What’s better is that I get along with the parent and the kids. If you’re a parent to humans, you understand that this can be a struggle.  

WEEKDAYS

In an ideal world, I will do something outside while simultaneously working on the business in the evenings. I’ll have dinner, convince Savannah to take a shower or bath, and I love wrapping up the night with a good book. Reading before bed, even if it is 5 minutes, can be extremely therapeutic, and it also helps me go to la-la land. 

Quick fun fact: Did you know that reading before bedtime can reduce stress and improve sleep quality? It can also improve your memory and mental ability. 

WEEKENDS

The weekends can vary, but if it’s nice out, it usually consists of going outside. I should also note that since I co-parent with my daughter’s father, I have Savannah every other weekend. On the weekends, I don’t have her; I usually work on my business, do some household cleaning/ chores, bother my friend, and do whatever feels right at the moment. I have no idea why the weekends are short, but I usually go into them to honor how I feel and don’t put too much pressure on myself, you know? 

HOW TO BUILD IN THINGS YOU LOVE

Are you ever looking for ways to extend or enjoy your weekend juuuuust a tiny bit longer? Here are a couple of tips to add some self-care to your weekends.
