Although I like things neat, I’m not a clean freak, like my dear husband, who I affectionately call, “Mr. Ajax.”  I remember when we were dating, I invited him over to my apartment for dinner.  At the time, I had a long commute, on top of working 70 hours a week at a demanding job. […]

There was so much content at the Hubspot Inbound Marketing Conference, it was really hard deciding which sessions to attend. It was also a fun challenge to figure out how to summarize what I’ve learned. I probably could write a year’s worth of blog posts on what I learned! So the second theme of the […]

Kayaking! Well, that was the answer for me. I love it when a hobby teaches you more than you expected. I knew kayaking was good for my body and my mind, but I’m finding it’s also good for teaching me more life lessons. This time, the lesson is all about balance. Here’s how kayaking has […]

Ah, summertime. Long sun-filled days, the desire to be outdoors all the time and the slower pace. We weren’t able to take a full-fledged vacation this summer since I don’t want to leave my Mom for more than a few days. That didn’t stop me from enjoying the glorious summer days.
