The program employs a number of creative tools, including a deck of 28 cards with personalized workouts and healthy recipes to help you stay on track with your weight loss goals.

Awe-Inspiring Archipelago Candles: Luxuriating in the Glow of Elegance »

Like most women, I strive to keep a fair number of balls in the air – Mom to two busy teens, wife, business owner, spokesperson, blogger, friend, mentor, and more. I’ve also found that as my business grows and my daughter and son gain more independence – one’s in college, the other begins next year – I now keep an almost breakneck travel schedule, with cross-country media tours, industry conferences and speaking gigs, and international meetings and events.

After a while, this hectic pace takes a toll, and it becomes harder to bounce back and get my bearings after a particularly grueling spate of travel. I’ve discovered over the past few months, however, that if I’m to keep up this frenetic schedule, I need to take care of myself – which means I need to keep up my twice-weekly sessions with my trainer, eat healthy foods, get enough sleep, and listen to my body if I need to cut back and get even more rest.

It’s Time to Meet The Muppets! Wocka Wocka Pack Review and Giveaway »

My husband and I have different ideas of what defines a great movie. He just enjoys a different genre than I do. When "The Muppets" came to theaters I felt thrilled to see it and waited for the release with anticipation like I was eight years old again. My husband is a long-time Muppets fan like I am and I was excited to see a movie we were both sure to enjoy! Well, it turns out this movie fell into the category of ones we couldn’t agree on.
 
When I got the chance to review this film, I jumped at the chance –I wanted to see it again and thought a he said/she said review would be fun. I also wanted to give the movie a second chance since I wasn’t a huge fan when I first saw it.
