My random musings, crazy ideas, distractions, mental vacations and anything that makes me take pause.
LET’S RECONNECT Hello friends! It’s been a long time – a really, really long time. So much shifted in our world the last few years and within me. Did they with you, too? I don’t know what vibrates with you when facing the end of a year, but deadlines that face a new beginning always…
Hello, my name is Sarah and I’m a podcast-holic. My line up of favorite shows contains equal parts writing or online entrepreneurial advice, inspirational motivators and true crime podcasts – that my kids introduced me to. Today, while listening to the Good Life Project, host Jonathan Fields and special guest, author Geneen Roth (from the…
Why do you travel? To get away from the daily grind? To spend quality time with others? To invest time in, and transform, yourself? To learn about other cultures, flavors and traditions? My friends Christina, Marsha, Patty and I (and occasionally a special guest!) found a way to do all of the above during those…
I want to share one of the best things one of my friends did for me. She showed up unannounced in my office, on a really average day, and talked me into training for a half ironman triathlon (1.2 mi swim, 56 mile bike ride, 13.1 mile run). I doubt anyone ever used the word…

This is the year of full-circle moments! In one week from today, thanks to KIIS-FM and Del Taco, my daughter and I get tickets AND a backstage tour at Wango Tango music festival here in Los Angeles. Now we still don’t know what this entails, but I hope to cross paths a few performers and…
During the toddler years, my family’s cranky moods (mine included) disappeared with some creative distraction and a change of venue – if severe. Now that the tween and teen years dictate the mood in the house, when the bickering levels get intolerable, Mom offers a proportional change up – Roadtrip adventure! I’ve been dreaming of…
Usually I do this exercise to check in with myself every so often, remind myself to be present and grateful during my endless day-to-day grind. This time, my mind is whirring a million miles an hour since receiving a jolt of adrenaline in the form of a great adventure! I’ve been picked, with 50 other…
Every day, but especially Valentine’s day, music has the ability to alter my mood. With today being the national reminder to love one another, I pulled together a soundtrack of songs that put me in the mood… to skip down the sidewalk tossing confetti hearts at everyone I pass. Love Will Keep us Together by Captain…
With tangible anticipation, the seduction tickles each of our 5 senses pulling us closer. Whether we go full-body all in, or pulled in inch by inch, we feverishly mark the date on the calendar and before it’s upon us, already hope for multiple experiences.
