I know it’s still the middle of August, but Back to School is everywhere!
As a teacher, I love back to school season. Freshly sharpened pencils. Brand new notebooks ready to be filled with ideas and inspiration. Unblemished 3-ring binders with fresh sheet protectors and color-coded index tabs…
But so much of back to school season focuses on our children ~ their supplies, their schedules, their emotional transitions. And those are important.
But so are YOU!
Your growth, your learning, your abundance and love are what help to sustain you and your family.
So for this back to school season, consider taking an e-course just for you, to help you live with abundance and purpose.
{And if there’s something I love more than back-to-school, it’s finding discounts on back-to-school! Both of these courses have discount promotions right now, which is why I wanted to share them with you today.}
The Abundant Mama Project
{with Shawn Fink}
“This is it. Your life flashing before you … during every diaper change, every load of laundry, every boo-boo and every homework battle. You are so busy. And yet you know there’s more to life — that being there alongside your kids is important. There’s just not enough hours in the day. The Abundant Mama Project will give you those gentle nudges you need to open your eyes, pay attention to the little details of your life and focus on what matters.” {From abundantmama.com}
Doesn’t that sound amazing?
And I am excited to announce that I am joining this project as a contributor this fall!
During this five-week e-course, you will receive weekly emails with inspiration, journal prompts, and challenges to help you wake up to the beauty of your life. My contribution is all about helping you develop a gratitude practice ~ for yourself and for your family.
The Abundant Mama Project helps you: Deepen your parenting experience. Find new ways to see magic in your daily life. Elevate the ordinary to the extraordinary. Add sparkle to the mundane. Focus on the shimmery goodness of your life. Discover your peaceful center. Learn to love and appreciate your life more {From abundantmama.com}
Early bird pricing for the Abundant Mama Project runs through September 1st. You can learn more at Shawn’s website ~ and check out the option for the Abundant Mama Peace Circle ~ a new feature of this course this year!
How to Build A Blog You Truly Love

Liv guides you through the most important components of blogging ~ finding your purpose, writing with your authentic voice, creating a blog design that reflects YOU, how to promote and even monetize your blog without feeling slimy, how to use various social media outlets to your best advantage, and how to find your blogging tribe. And that’s just the beginning.

*****
I hope you can find time during the craziness of Back to School season to take time to pause, breathe, and focus on yourself. Whether it is through these courses, or just a quiet cup of coffee in the morning. Because self-care is not selfish!
“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.” Buddha
