In a world where the really good secrets can be as elusive as water in the desert, I've made it my mission to share the hidden oasis of natural living. Imagine holding back the knowledge of a life source – that's just not my style.
Synthetic chemicals might be the quick fixes of the times - beginning back when we GenXers were kids, but I've found a richer, more sustainable wellspring of well-being. Picture this as me leading you to the ultimate chill spot, where the air is fresh, and the vibes are all about a healthier, happier life.
Join me on this journey of ditching the synthetic and embracing the natural. Let's cultivate a lifestyle that's not just about surviving but thriving. Cheers to a life filled with good vibes and the refreshing flow of well-being!

✨ My blog exists because I know what it feels like to keep everything jumbled in your head — like a messy pile of clothes you can’t sort through.
Writing it all down brings clarity, calm, and sometimes even healing answers I didn’t know I was looking for.
Honestly, that’s why I keep showing up to write — it helps me make sense of things.
Even if you have no intentions of ever publishing your work, I highly recommend writing stuff down. It doesn't have to be a literary masterpiece or even full, grammatically correct sentences... just dump those random thoughts onto paper... you'll see what I mean.
*This blog centers the GenX experience, simply because that’s the lens I live through—but anyone looking for connection, natural wellness, grief support, or a little real-talk in this messy stage of life is more than welcome.

In this blog post, we take a trip down memory lane, reflecting on our past choices and the unintended consequences of using toxic products. As we enter the midlife stage, it's time to embark on a natural wellness journey that prioritizes our health and well-being. By making practical changes and swapping out chemical-laden products for eco-friendly alternatives like Young Living's Thieves Household Cleaner, we can create a healthier living space and improve our overall health.
Embracing natural wellness is more enjoyable when shared, so let's build a community of fellow GenXers who can support and inspire each other along the way. Together, we can laugh at our past fashion choices and celebrate finding non-toxic solutions that actually work. As we look ahead, let's remember that our choices today not only impact our own well-being but also leave a legacy for the next generation. So, let's embrace change with a smile, take small steps towards a toxin-free lifestyle, and groove to the beat of a healthier and happier life.
