The Personal

What’s a small joy that never fails to make you smile? Hearing my kids laugh always warms my heart!

What’s your go-to comfort show, podcast, or book? 90 Day Fiance is always a fun go-to!

What’s a parenting mantra or quote you love? "The very fact that you worry about being a good mom means that you already are one."

What’s one thing most people don’t know about you? I actually don't know how to swim but after having 3 kids, I recently started swim lessons bc I want to be a role model for my kids.

Coffee order, tea ritual, or favorite snack? My favorite snack is a bowl of berries :)

If you had a whole afternoon to yourself, how would you spend it? I would love to spend time outside and go on a walk, grab a smoothie at a local cafe, and do some self-care like getting mani/pedi and a massage!
