I can’t be the only one who does this but I hate I can’t be the only one who does this but I hate eating alone in public. I’ll literally get something to go and eat in my car.But we are WORKING ON being at peace by ourselves. So this time? Finally stopped at the cafe after a long run and treated myself to a latte and a cozy breakfast plate instead of taking it to go.No book, no laptop, no distractions—just the bay views, my meal, and the quiet realization that I genuinely enjoy my own company.It took me 45 years to start to feel this kind of peace with myself. But here I am working on it—and I’m so grateful for that.location: Superbloom Cafe at Mission Bay#midlifewomen #womenover40 #runner #sandiego
When was the last time you visited the city that n When was the last time you visited the city that never sleeps?It’s been 8 years for me…..but that’s about to change…..I’m heading to WITS 2025 in Lower Manhattan this May 16–18, and it’ll be my first time attending! I know that a lot of my adventures include the rest of the family —but this time, it’s just for me. I’ll be flying solo to connect, learn, and grow alongside an amazing community of women creators, storytellers, and travel pros.I’ve heard such good things about WITS—like, inspiring panels, hands-on workshops, and real conversations with women who actually get the ups and downs of this weird job 😂 . I’m hoping to come back with fresh ideas, some serious travel inspo and maybe even a few new itineraries planned for all of us!And the fact that it’s in Downtown NYC? I mean... yes, please. I’m already dreaming of grabbing a fancy latte at Eataly, checking out the views from One World Trade Center, wandering around South Street Seaport, and soaking up all the big-city energy.Since I’ll have a little solo time, tell me—what should I do while I’m in town? Any must-see spots, cute coffee shops, or hidden gems? I want to make the most of it!If you’re a fellow travel creator—or thinking about becoming one—come with me! I’d love to connect while we’re there. Grab your ticket at the link in my bio!@downtownnyc #WITSDTNYC #FirstTimeAtWITS #TravelMoms #MomContentCreator #WITSSummit #FamilyTravelCreator@ShesWanderful @witsummit
Parenting a tween is like living with a tiny roomm Parenting a tween is like living with a tiny roommate who thinks they’re your life coach.They’ve got opinions—on your outfit, your music, and how you load the dishwasher.
They’re funny, clever, and somehow always know when you’re sneaking snacks.
They’ll ignore you for hours, then suddenly want to talk about life at 10:37 PM.It’s unpredictable, hilarious, occasionally exhausting—and honestly, kind of amazing.
Because in between the sass and sarcasm, you catch these little glimpses of who they’re becoming… and it’s pretty cool.(But also, no one warned me how many cereal boxes one person could go through in a week.)#tweenparenting #momlife #tweenyears #funnyparenting #raisinghumans #thisis11
I honestly thought running would shrink my body… I honestly thought running would shrink my body….but instead it grew my soul. 👟❤️✨💖I thought marathon training would definitely do it......how could it not? But the truth is, despite running a LOT.....my body has pretty much stayed the same size. However, my perspective has completely evolved. I think about food as a fuel on run days, and have been able to be more present in how it makes me feel. Amazing how something I used to look at as a punishment has become a gift.What do you want to see more of running wise? Are you a runner? Do specific running tips help? Or are you here for the vibes?
Realistic Day as a Work from home mom ☕️⏰🚌I never know if I should say work from home or work for myself but…..either way I try to stay on a work during the school day schedule usually.📍field trip was to the USS Midway Museum (we loved it)🪞never not using that Ilia Super Serum tint (if you’re over 35 trust me try it) If you’re a mom with a slightly messy house and a slightly messy schedule I hope this reminds you that most of us are just like you and that you’ll stay awhile. Inspired by my friend @byalicesigh who makes the best day in the life vlogs…..should I share more of these?? #dayinthelife #workfromhomemom
We listen and we don’t judge: my internet search We listen and we don’t judge: my internet search history is full of flight options for a little hop over to Orlando for Epic Universe.......plus I could do a little Volcano Bay rest stop right?After seeing so many friends share sneak peeks into Universal Orlando’s Epic Universe......I’m ALL IN and want to visit ASAP! Epic Universe opens on May 22nd......and as always you can save on tickets to Universal Epic Universe with Undercover Tourist (along with the rest of Universal Orlando).....they also have some great vacation packages (so that you can visit the rest of Universal Orlando too.....Volcano Bay obviously being my biggest recommendation).My only question......WHEN should we go? Immediately? Wait a couple weeks? @themeparkfrog #undercovertouristfrogfriend #saveonepic #epicuniverse #universalorlando #volcanobay
