It's no secret that I have recently gone through one of the more negative life changing events, divorce. Honestly, it all happened very fast. Last Thanksgiving the thought really hadn't crossed my mind and by February of this year, my husband had moved out and the process began. I am not writing this post to air my dirty laundry or "ex-husband bash". When it all went down, I asked him to move out and he obliged. I think we had both realized that the relationship was either on it's way out or had actually ended a few months...

I get constant questions on how I did it? How did I quit my Fortune 100 job climbing the corporate ladder,  and give up the easy 9 to 5 for an extremely risky business endeavor?  I can tell you one thing, I have had lots of failures and tons of successes with my business in the past 6 years but one thing always remains, I absolutely LOVE my job and being my own boss! Yes it was risky, but not because of the nature of my business. Retail is not a new business model, but the risk lies...

In my finding Alex series this month, I have been exploring different feelings and needs that I have neglected for years in hopes to hind myself in this time of change in my life. Lately I have been craving a dose of connection and zen with myself. In my high school and college years, I was always in to the biggest spiritual fad; Kabbalah, Reiki healing, angel guides, old Irish mysticism in the Roman Catholic church, auras, tapping in to your God given gift, your 6th sense. You name it, I was curious. ...

1/3 life crisis or learning and becoming more of who I really am? I have been asking myself that a lot lately. Of course, battling divorce, single parenting, and running companies all simultaneously while trying to remember the very basic necessities such as to drink water, feed myself, keep a roof over our head, and to sleep may be more of the real reason I am re-checking a lot of things in my life. Whatever the case, this huge shift in weight on my life's scale has me searching for an opportunity for growth. ...

As a single momma, I have had to lay the ground work for what a successful family looks like, especially with my little family. Financial planning is a huge part of this and I am so glad to have Regions Bank to help me along the way, which is why I’m so excited to share that Regions is opening up a new local branch. Their Lakeland Canada Rd branch (9850 US Highway 64) opens to the public this April, and has a Grand Opening event slated for April 21st.  Regions helped me to learn, if your financial plan is solid, not only will you live the life you...
