In blogging, as we’re all aware, there are many types of posts. Some are certainly more effective than others when it comes to getting a point across or sharing a fabulous recipe. Some posts may require more pictures and some posts may be more word heavy. Then there are the heart tugging posts or the emotionally laden posts that touch us to the very core. Or rile up our anger and desk chair protester. Writing is at the heart of blogging, there’s really no way of getting around that. In order to do what we do as bloggers, we must write. What we write about depends on our niche and our interests, of course. And that may even affect how we write. One of the…

Can you believe that it’s already July? This year is half over and while part of me feels incredibly accomplished… there’s a part of me that knows that I still have so much to do! I was never one to fully buy into the “summer slump” when it came to blogging. And though my numbers are down from last month, I’m not too concerned. That said, I’m going to follow the same format as I did last month. You can read my past income reports (though only last month’s included traffic) and I’m also going to review/recap my traffic from the beginning of the year to the end of this month. Income and Expenses for June June saw my first payment from Mediavine and payments…

As moms we take on a lot. Sometimes we may take on too much, but we’ll still probably try to convince ourselves that we can do it all. Maybe we can, maybe we can’t. And as moms, we also tend to put our own health and wellness needs on the backburner. Even though we should know by now, that if we want to properly handle everything else; we really shouldn’t neglect our health. I say this because I’ve done it often. I start the year with all intention of making my health and wellness more of a priority. And maybe I’ll do okay until March or April. Then by June, I’ve fallen off the fitness wagon. And then, of course, I’ll wonder why I’m not…

Is developing a brand really that important for a blogger? This is something that I’ve asked myself countless times over the past few months. Developing a brand was something that I associated more with a company, not a person. A brand was for a business. So maybe that’s why developing a brand is important for bloggers. I treat my blog like a business because it’s part of my business. Because of that, I want to develop a brand for it that’s memorable. But what makes a brand memorable? Is it the logo, the tagline, the colors, the mood? What are the essential elements to include for a memorable brand? There are basically seven elements you can incorporate into your brand building strategy. We’re going to…

Okay, so while I’ve been sporadic with posting my monthly goals (May Goals & February Goals), I also haven’t posted an income report since February… which was really the income report for January. I would love to tell you that this is more of a priority for me, but it isn’t. Yes, I do enjoy sharing and I enjoy answering any questions… so maybe that will give me the motivation I need. Anyway. From here one out, when I remember to do them, these reports will be broken down as such: Previous month’s income received and expenses out Previous month’s traffic Goals for next month So let’s get started!

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of American Heart Association for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. Over the past several years, yoga has become increasingly popular among all age groups. It’s relatively easy to get started and offers numerous health benefits to its practitioners. In fact, for this mom, it’s become one of my home exercises of choice. Yoga has helped me not only with meeting my fitness goals, but also with my overall health and wellness goals by giving me another outlet to reduce my stress levels. Yoga is also something that families can do together. If you’re looking for some ideas to get your family started with yoga, check out some of these “Mommy and Me” poses from the American Heart…
