Is Your Parenting Supporting or Sabotaging Your Child? You Decide.
I'm just going to lay it all out today. I am both the world's best and world's worst mom and though I have always believed this, it has been this past year with some intense situations with my children that have come from my own need to shed some old wounds and heal that this has become all too apparent. And, full disclosure, I just watched an old Brene Brown Ted Talk and am both energized and sick to my stomach all at once. Yes. It's a normal day at the Croy house. It seems

Self-Sabotage to Self-Actualization

How Do I Create a Successful 2020?
As I sit here this morning I am filled with questions. How do I create a successful 2020? How do harness what has worked for me and shed the things that didn't to create a better year? How do I not become stuck in the same place that mired me in 2019? I wish I had a magic bullet for you. A lot of folks out there seem to have that magic bullet and I'm looking today in my email inbox to find one....or many as I look toward the influencers and teachers I have followed and look t
