It’s okay to…
Over the last few months, I have learned some precious lessons that I guess if I hadn’t quit teaching, maybe I wouldn’t have learned at all. I was always focused on looking okay and smiling even if I didn’t feel like it. It’s something they drill into you on the job. It doesn’t matter if…
It’s the little things

Use your energy to create and grow
