Here we are - a brand new year. Hello, 2021! I'm glad you've arrived. CWS fam - what's up?! How are you doing? I'm sure you're completely stoked to be seeing 2021. I decided that I'm bringing back my quarterly goals blog posts. I skipped these blog posts last year for a few reasons but I know they'll serve me well this year. At the start of each quarter, I'll share my top goals for my blog (and content creation in general) as well as some personal ones. My hope in sharing these with ...
The Real Blogging Mamas
Happy New Year, CWS family! I am so pumped to be seeing 2021 and I'm sure you are, too. Next week, I'll be sharing some long-term goals I have for the new year as well as my word of the year for 2021. Today, I have an exciting announcement to share! I have been working on a secret passion project for the past couple of months... I started Coffee With Summer to share my heart and to connect with others on a raw and real level. I didn't know how large and supportive the blogging community was ...
My 2020 Year In Review
2020 has been quite the year, hasn't it? I'm sure many of you out there might even want to forget all about it. While I resonate with why many people feel that way, I don't want to forget about 2020. This year, as unexpected as it's been, has been one of the best years of my life. Of course, I say that because I gave birth to Taya in February of this year! My daughter has been the BEST part of this year and I really don't know how I would've gotten through without her. Taya has brought me ...
CWS Happenings
Happy December, everyone! I hope you're having a good start to the holiday season. I don't know how we're in December already but I'll take it, haha. Lately, I have been trying to be more present in every moment of my life, rather than worrying about what's next or what I can't control. As I shared the other week, I'm also working on relearning how to properly prioritize. Since becoming a new mom and between everything that's happened this year, it's been hard for me to find a balance between ...
Mama Knows Best: Triple Paste Relief
This post is sponsored by BabbleBoxx on behalf of Triple Paste. As always, all opinions and thoughts are my own. Thank you for supporting the brands that keeping CWS up and brewing! This little sweet face is 9 month months old already... can you even believe it? As a first-time mama, I have been truly soaking up every single moment of this new mama journey... that includes those messy and stinky moments. One of my favorite (out of the very many) things about being Taya's mama is that I'm ...
Gift Guide: Small Shops That I Love
I hope you're having a beautiful day! One of my personal goals this year for my own holiday shopping is to shop small whenever I can. I'm a huge small shop supporter and I always have an amazing experience when shopping small. It's always a good idea to shop small and local when you can but I think it's important to acknowledge that this year, it's even more important to do so. I want to be more intentional from here on out to share more small businesses in my regularly scheduled content. To ...
