Hi! I’m Sarah-Jean. I’m a Christian, the wife of a handsome Molecular Biologist, and the mother of 6 beautiful kids here on earth + one in Heaven.

Just do it. Just get the steps in. I’ve tried Just do it. Just get the steps in. I’ve tried other walking pads and they aren’t worth your time. You get what you pay for and no, they aren’t all the same. @flexispot_official walking pad is superior for a host of reasons. Check out my post on the blog for more info!!

I didn’t think a blanket could change my life bu I didn’t think a blanket could change my life but… it did. I’m so glad I decided to give @mybearaby a try. It’s not just another weighted blanket. It’s a lifestyle. The moment I unrolled it, I knew this blanket was different. Not only is it 100% organic cotton, it is award winning and has proven positive results. 85% of people reported better sleep after using the Bearaby weighted blanket and I can confirm this is true. From the first night with it, I immediately noticed that I fall asleep much faster - no more staring at the ceiling wondering when I’m going to fall asleep. I also noticed I sleep much more deeply and don’t wake up nearly as often which really surprised me. Not only that, I feel HAPPY when I wake up instead of that sinking dread feeling I normally have 🥴 Who knew a blanket could fix so many things?! If you’re a stressed out, anxious mom like myself, do yourself a favor and get this blanket. Will it fix all your problems? No. It won’t do the dishes or fold your laundry. But it will help you sleep better and that will help everything else in life feel a lot lighter. ☺️ Comment “blanket” for the link! . . . #bearaby #weightedblanket #selfcare #selfcareeveryday #cozyathome #cozyvibesonly #cozydays #slowliving #mybearaby #naptime

Some moms drink iced coffee. Some moms reheat the Some moms drink iced coffee. Some moms reheat the same cup 4 times and still forget it in the microwave. (I see you!) Me? I just shake up a @gopureboost powder in my water tumbler and pretend I’ve got my life together. 😆 This little packet of magic delivers up to 6 hours of clean, crash-free energy with natural green tea caffeine, B12, and over 25 vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Plus it has turmeric, ginger, electrolytes, and vitamin C too! No sugar. No sucralose. No artificial flavors. No yuck. Just clean energy that doesn’t make you jittery or wanting to take a nap with your toddler at 2pm. Best of all? It’s only 25 calories, 2 grams of carbs, and totally fits into keto, gluten-free, paleo, and vegan lifestyles. This is basically mom fuel disguised as a wellness drink. You’re welcome. ➡️➡️ Be a friend. Tag a mom who needs this kind of liquid miracle in her life. She will love you forever. #pureboost #gopureboost #wellnessjourney #cleaneatinglifestyle #healthygirl #healthygut
When our homeschool days feel long, I need a clean When our homeschool days feel long, I need a clean, nourishing lift to keep going… (and we both know that third cup of coffee is just going to make us anxious!)😆😵‍💫 The Pureboost Original 10‑Pack delivers 6 hours of crash‑free, jitter‑free energy, thanks to B12 and natural green‑tea caffeine with zero sugar, sucralose, artificial flavors, or colors! 😮 This stuff is the real deal.

I finally found a way to keep his name close to me I finally found a way to keep his name close to me every day. 💛 🐢 🌊 This simple ring from Mint & Lily holds the name of my stillborn son—delicate, beautiful, and deeply meaningful. It’s a small way I get to remember Dylan, honor him, and carry his memory with me in the quiet moments of motherhood. Custom jewelry like this makes space for the unseen stories so many of us carry. 💔❤️‍🩹 If you’ve ever wanted to wear your child’s name—whether they’re in your arms or in Heaven—this is a beautiful way to do it. 💍 You can customize your own name ring with @mintandlily and wear your love right on your hand.☺️ (My other ring is his birthstone)💚 #stillbornstillloved #stillbirth #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarriagesupport #babylossawareness #babylossawareness #griefjourney #rememberancejewelry
