So, it’s almost a wrap on 2016, and I have to say overall it’s been a pretty amazing year for me. A serious highlight for me- Starting this blog. I got the idea in January of this year after reading You Are a Badass by Jen Sincero. Side Note: If you haven’t read… Continue reading Cheers to 2016 and Here’s to a Beautiful New Year!

Reilly Family Christmas
I took a small break from blogging late last week to go on an amazing (and super quick) trip to New York to get in some quality Family Christmas time. For those that follow me on Instagram, you know I saw some beautiful holiday magic in the City that doesn’t sleep. From the Christmas Tree… Continue reading Reilly Family Christmas
December 1
So, how many times today did you hear, “I can’t believe it’s December !” If you’re like me, I’m sure you stopped counting. Or maybe you were even the one saying it.

Walking meditation

Well, for me it wasn’t finding the right alarm… Continue reading Shifting Your Morning
Pre-Vacation Worries
Just hearing the word “Vacation” makes most of us smile. Getting a few days off work to go somewhere new and take in the sites exactly what most of us crave. It’s also wonderful to take time off and be with family and just enjoy each others company. That is what I am about… Continue reading Pre-Vacation Worries
Give Away What You Want to Receive
If you’ve cracked a self-help book in the past decade, you’ve not doubt heard this statement: Give Away What You Want to Receive I’ve struggled with the concept, but the more I try it, the more it seems to actually be a smart way to live life. Funny how that happens. Many people… Continue reading Give Away What You Want to Receive
