Want to make the most out your time at home and have more productive evenings? Keep reading! If you’re like me, you come home from work ready to plop down on the couch, relax and watch some TV. But that’s not the way to knock things off your to do list! If you want to see more productive evenings (thereby saving your weekends from being consumed by chores!), I have a few tips that I have been personally using myself….
I spend a lot of time sharing productivity tips with my students. I’m definitely “the productivity girl.” I am far from the most productive person, but I do feel very passionate about maximizing my productivity and using my time valuably. Even if I’m not always perfect, there are some things I strive not to do. I spend a lot of time telling people what they can do to be more productive. But I think it would be worthwhile to share…
I am trying to do a better job to jumpstart my mornings and using the hours when I’m the most awake to do the things that matter most. A morning routine can be hard to establish, but it’s important! So, I wanted to share the 9 things I’m trying to do every day before 10 a.m. (Or at least some of those things – it’s hard to get everything done, every day!) If you’re anything like me, routines make the…
If you’re like me, you feel like you get a major reset in mid-August. Why? It’s time for back to school! Even if you aren’t actually going back to school, there’s something about this season in life.

I am sure I am not the only person who struggles to get back into the swing of things when coming back from vacation – either a short or long trip. We took a quick weekend trip to Nags Head a few weeks ago, and even that Monday morning was tough, even though it was only a few hours both ways! I have a few tried and true strategies for sinking your teeth back into your work and starting your…
I was so excited when Rachel Hollis’ new book, Girl, Stop Apologizing, came out in March! I always listen to these sorts of books on audiobook (I have an Audible subscription and totally recommend it!) and this one was especially good. Rachel Hollis has a great way of speaking and is a very engaging narrator. Plus, I love listening to authors narrate their own books! They tell the story in a completely different way.
