Meeting fatigue, crisis management, non-dedicated work hours, technology woes and let’s not forget the continued need for social distancing. Like everyone else, we are still experiencing the aches and pains of living through the coronavirus epidemic. With summer coming to a close, schools (trying) to get back in session and no end in sight from the pandemic, ya’ll, the struggle is real.

Summer is by far my favorite season of the year. Sunshine, road trips, backyard barbecues and late evenings spent on a neighbor’s porch listening to the storms roll in…it’s hard to believe it’s nearly over! As the temperatures begin to cool and humidity becomes less offensive, Southerners gain more tolerance for wandering back outside again, making it the perfect time for a picnic. Keep it casual or gussy it up as much as you want. Anything goes when it comes to packing a picnic and if you are needing direction for a starting place, remember there are only two rules: food and finding the right setting.

Know YOUR Why. It’s a powerful statement. One that makes you dig deep and think.

It gives your life purpose.

It gives you something to look forward to.

It gives us a reason to be a BETTER person.

Outsourcing your life – What does that mean?

Is it for me?

Would it really help alleviate stress?

Where do I start?
