Send us a text You heard it right- this episode is all about DISNEY, and my newbie voyage after probably a decade+ removed, and adding a 5yr old and 2.5 yr old to the adventure! As you probably know, A LOT has changed to how Disney operates, due to changes in technology (the app is great!), fast pass/genie, and waiting in line to see your favorite characters. I was on the mom Disney facebook groups, and while helpful, I also felt overwhelmed hearing all about every individual's trip a...
Send us a text Timelines can be great, and they can also really WASTE the time that we have to live, if we put extra pressure on ourselves to reach certain milestones by certain ages (mainly talking weddings and babies, here- because those things just CAN'T be willed into happening or forced-- if we want them to be right and good for us). I'm all about goals and thinking ahead, but when it comes to meeting a partner or having a family (however that may come to be), I know I for sure wasted s...

Send us a text On Today's episode we are chatting with Executive Director of Girls on The Run of the Panhandle (GOTR-P), Denise Howard. GOTR is a research-based positive youth development non-profit serving all 50 states, and Canada. Despite having "run" in their name, this is FAR more than a running program, encouraging girls in grades 3-8 to be joyful, healthy and confident through their program that creatively incorporates running. Denise shares her journey from volunteer and parent to a G...
Send us a text Being a positive person by nature can be tough when it seems like there are fires burning, everywhere one looks... but it can be done and it HAS to be done, and I'm sharing some ways I am attempting to do that, right now. No matter what stage of life you are in, there are things you can do to find joy, and also resist when you know things are not right. We teach our kids to say something and stand up for others, and I feel we must practice what we preach, especially...
Send us a text This episode was a LOOOONG time coming, as you know I live the traveling-for-work spouse life weekly, and have adapted and found ways to help myself, as well as my spouse helping to set us up for success. I knew from the start, I HAD to have my friend Erin Watson on the podcast, especially for this topic, even though I know we could chat on several, so keep a look out, she will likely be back. I won't give too much a way, but Erin's husband is currently deployed for mon...
Send us a text Sometimes, we just need to get it all out on paper. Our wants/needs/hopes/dreams, and let it be known that we have PLANS. Our gym (BurnBootcampTally) started this tradition, and I loved it so much, I had to share with you. You can easily recreate this activity yourself and even if you THINK it's cheesy, I promise it's so powerful. Let me know if you do it! I would love to hear your feedback on how it went! Reminder: Your hopes, dreams and feelings matter, and it is never too...
Send us a text The holidays bring joy and fun, but can also bring big time stress and anxiety, especially as we get older and begin forming our own families. There is definitely an art to balancing things, and while compromise is welcome and appreciated, it's also okay to say "no", if that certain event/tradition no longer serves you or your crew. I am still on my journey in beginning to create my little families typical traditions, but I'm sharing my favorite 5 tips, on how we've mana...
Send us a text Lordy Lordy, I'm turning 4-0! I'm so glad 40 has a better, more positive rep, than when we were younger, but it can still mess with your mind, if we're not careful. I'm sharing some tips from my year leading up to this milestone, so you can hopefully view your next bday in a brighter light, no matter what number that is. I'm always open to feedback, so feel free to DM me @we_arrow_on_podcast, and please pass it on to a friend or family member who could use some of these vibes...

Send us a text Holy Moly-- the quote "I love the woman I've become, because I've fought to become her", has been on my brain and heart for a few weeks now, and I knew I had some things to say, and hopefully ADD to your life/outlook. There are days/weeks/months...sometimes YEARS, where it can feel like a legit FIGHT to get to where you want to go...job wise, relationship wise, health wise.....there will be road blocks and times where growth just isn't as fast as we'd like. In this episode, I...
Send us a text It's an emotionally charged one, this week, friends and also comes with a TRIGGER WARNING for traumatic birth, and/or for anyone who may be currently pregnant, and to whom this could be upsetting to. While our story ended positively, and with a healthy baby, I know this is not always the case. I debated sharing these stories here, but then remembered how thankful I was when I was experiencing unexplained infertility, and so many women were talking more openly about it.&n...
Send us a text If you're a mom, veteran or seasoned....you know it, and it can be hard to work through. I'm thankful more and more women are open to discussing these topics, as it has helped me, and hoping this episode gives you some good takeaways for yourself, or a friend who may need your support. I don't think MG every goes AWAY, I think she will ebb and flow and linger...but we can work around and even WITH her, to still keep our interests and passions, other than motherhood, alive an...

Having known her for so many years, there are many topics we could take on, but this time, we focus on how she and her husband, Seth, turned a passion Into an actual business. Faith has always been pretty crafty, but after meeting Seth, and taking on home projects and renovations of their own, and also DIY'ing 99.9% of their wedding, they began to wonder If this could ever turn Into more than a side hobby...
