This year has been filled with some major health, financial, and personal challenges but there have a lot of highlights and accomplishments throughout the year that I want to focus on!

Before I begin I’d like to thank Curves International for sponsoring this post. Are you ready to get #CurvesStrong?

As a first time mom I avoided nursing in public as much as possible. It was awkward and anxiety provoking to say the least. I would constantly try to maneuver my body in a position that wouldn’t expose me while one hand was trying to hold my baby and the other hand was trying to adjust the nursing cover, pull… Read More
