Oh Hey There!
I’m Jen. I am always on the lookout for new tips, tricks, hacks, methods, and ideas to streamline my life. As a working and homeschooling mother of five, I get pretty busy. One day I broke down in tears and told my husband, “I feel like I’m drowning.” I decided that day that I was not going to spend another second feeling like that. My life is a wonderful blessing that I only get to experience one time, why would I spend it in pain? Now I implement all the techniques I can find to create a peaceful, harmonious atmosphere that facilitates a purposeful and fulfilling life. Those techniques are what I aim to share here. Let’s live better.
xoxo Jen
