Life by Cynthia

I'm shifting! I am passionate about learning all that I can about food, wellness, environmentalism & natural living. I am taking a step towards educating myself so that I can create a better, healthier life. I am behind the pack but excited to learn as much as I can and make some changes. I decided to involve myself with the Eco-Wellness Social Media conference, ShiftCon, because I simply want to know more. I need to know more. I know that once I do I will be armed to make much better decisions for the health and well being of my growing family. I will be the first to admit that my household needs some work!

I am going to Los Angeles in October for the SHAPE Magazine Blogger Meet and Tweet! I couldn't ask for a better opportunity to find fitness motivation. I'll spend the day surrounded by fitness bloggers, SHAPE magazine editors, industry experts, and amazing sponsors! I'm certain that attendees will have a blast checking our the latest trends and new products!

I think mostly because everyone remembers their starting point to get fit (or get back to being fit)! All levels, body types, and age groups will surely be represented! I can hardly wait!!!

Today's tidbit that has led to such a giddy feeling that has lasted ALL day: An exclusive invitation to the Blogger Meet & Tweet with SHAPE magazine! My RSVP was sent immediately and it's offic...

The 3rd Annual Chick-fil-A Mom Panel launched this month and will continue through August 2016. Chick-fil-A has been partnering with engaged and influential moms to be a part of their exclusive Mom Panel. Moms will be sharing their opinions on things like new menu items and services to Kid’s Meal toys.  ALL aspects of the Chick-fil-A experience are valued by the Chick-fil-A group and we will get a chance to voice those opinions. I was selected to participate this time around and am excited to share my personal insight. As a first year panelist for the 2015-2016 year, I will respond to inquiries, participate in discussions, and provide my thoughts and feedback with my fellow panelists and with Chick-fil-A. I will also have the opportunity to share the latest Chick-fil-A scoop with you my friends! Let me be your link to Chick-fil-A! Follow along with me here on the blog for more! Look out for the hashtag #ChickfilAMoms on social media as well to stay in the know! I'll be rep...
