Favorite Quote:

Even if you’re scared, you don’t have everything laid out, or know exactly how it’s going to work, just continue taking that next best step in the direction that you want to go. Evaluate this on a daily basis, maybe even multiple times per day. Whether you think something feels right or feels it needs to be eliminated from your life, make that decision immediately. You know your true desire.

Well earlier in the week I was showing you my nigh Well earlier in the week I was showing you my nighttime spa routine. Today I didn’t even shower. This pandemic schedule is no joke - working from home. Teaching from home. Trying to keep up with the mess and the feelings and the schedules and the safety is very, very challenging. It’s been a good practice to find peace where I can. Breathing exercises. Finding beauty in the little things. Enjoying the ‘down’ time. It’s the little pleasures that make the biggest difference. 💕

I got up to throw something away and G told me, “I’m trying to farm like Opa and Uncle Tim. There are no time outs.” No rest for the weary at Huls Rice Farms. 😅 Business lesson for the day - work until the job is done.

#beautycounter’s Charcoal Face Mask to prep for #beautycounter’s Charcoal Face Mask to prep for picture day. Remember getting ready for middle school photos? I’m pretty sure it was my first year wearing make-up for school pics, but I know it didn’t involve a charcoal face mask to make sure my skin was purified, calm, and super soft. My 7th-grader uses this quick treatment about 3 times a week to help combat both acne and eczema, 2 very challenging skin issues that are really hard to treat together. After a lot of trial and error, this mask is one thing that has helped greatly.  #betterbeauty #fundraiserweek #breastcancerawarenessmonth #choosesafer #womenempowerment #womensupportingwomen #womenentrepreneurs #beautycounterconsultant #charcoalmask

It's been a year since I've started using a skinca It's been a year since I've started using a skincare line from Beautycounter that was created to restore and replenish skin in a safer way - without using products like retinol. I could not wait for this to come out last year as I was so tired of looking at my growing lines. I have not been disappointed! I LOVE these products and would love everyone to use them because of (1) how enjoyable they are - makes me feel like I'm at a spa twice a day; (2) how effective they are - I no longer get disappointed looking in the mirror at my lines. 
🌟
For a birthday present to Countertime, you can now purchase the line in a mini set - allowing you to try it out in a smaller size without committing to the full products. 
🎁
These are Limited Edition (as in VERY LIMITED quantities), completely refillable and cute as can be! We've been warned that they will sell out extremely quickly (think maybe by days end)!
🤩
This is a great starter set, travel set, gift, or just special treat for yourself 
💃

Juneteenth. I don’t remember when I learned abou Juneteenth. I don’t remember when I learned about it but it floored me when I did. And it also struck me about how not very far in the past that was. However, I never commemorated it. I didn’t think that was my place.  This year, when Mariah mentioned volunteers would be helpful to deliver #BlackLivesMatter signs, I knew that was something I could do to be of use. This woman is a #changemaker. She sees a problem and immediately works to do something, on a grassroots level, to solve it. I admire her and I enjoy learning from her. When you know the world needs changed, let’s all be a little more like Mariah and find a way to change it for the better. 💕 #buyblackchambana #womanempowerment #womensupportingwomen #womeninbusiness #womenchangingtheworld #shoplocal #shopsmall #spreadthegood
Headed out to one of C-Us best today for some lemo Headed out to one of C-Us best today for some lemon custard and to see our sitter after some long months without her. Spotted a Mohawk, my Beautycounter hat, a tie dye shirt made in quarantine, and our masks for the new normal. Oddly enough it felt like we hadn’t been social distancing for the past 3 months. But I’m happy to support a longtime family favorite local business again. #shoplocal #oldiebutgoodie #shopsmall #womeninspiringwomen #entrepreneurship #womeninbusiness #custard
So lovely to see my friend Ali at Findings today. So lovely to see my friend Ali at Findings today. I did a quick pick-up of a gorgeous knit blazer that will be perfect for anything. I bought it completely distanced. While working from home, I want to have comfy clothes that still make me feel polished and professional. Ali kindly took pics of what she thought I’d like, shared them with me, and It’s been a breeze. These clothes have been so much better than my very old lounge wear. 😏 In business and as a consumer, build relationships and get concierge service. Ali offers just that. #shoplocal #shopsmallbusiness #womensupportingwomen #womenempowerment #womeninbusiness #womenentrepreneurs
