A Baby at 40: How I Get “Flawless” in Five

Life lately has been…blurry! It has also been really wonderful, mostly. Of course there are some really hard moments where I feel totally overwhelmed but I feel like one of the benefits of having a baby at this later stage in life (I turn 40 in a couple of months!) vs. when I had my first two in my early-ish thirties is that I know this is all just a phase and I will eventually get my rest and settle into a new kind of normal. I am being mindful of trying to surrender to the current state of chaos / exhaustion and just go with it… taking it one day at a time. If you know me AT ALL you will not be surprised to hear me say that this feels counter-intuitive and it takes daily work but so far I am embracing it pretty well if I do say so myself.

I have been easing back into “work mode” here and there. But, the truth is, I really love what I do, and most days it doesn’t really feel like work at all. I wouldn’t trade this “job” for anything! It is such a gift to have a reason to use my brain and connect regularly with those I care about. Sharing information about better, safer beauty with my amazing clients and friends like YOU, and working for a company that is dedicated to sustainability and changing the way the beauty industry does business feels pretty great.

Here’s the link for more on Beautycounter AND how you can get “flawless”, too, by shopping the “flawlessinfive” (my every day non-makeup look, pictured above). As always, please reach out if I can provide more information – I would love to hear from you!
