A new mantra is gaining momentum around 2021 being the year of yes! Will 2021 become “the year of yes” just because we can say yes to so many things we had to say no to this year? I am hearing more and more about this mantra, and my thought is we should all let 2021 be the year of saying YES!

Won’t You Be My Neighbor?
My wish for all of you who are reading this blog and watching this vlog (video above) is that you’ll go see an important movie—the new Fred Rogers documentary, “Won’t You Be My Neighbor”. It is out in theaters and everyone should see it soon.
Be Sun Safe and Stylish this Spring Break
It’s time to think about spring break!
As I sit here on snow day number three in Connecticut, I’m looking forward to lots of sunshine and beach time on our spring break in Florida.
Some of you know I have skin cancer, and I have to be very careful when I’m out in the sun. This is why I am always on the hunt for stylish UPF clothing, and one of my favorite brands is Cabana Life. I’m excited to share my collaboration with this awesome company.
Let’s All Make Reading Books Cool Again
Not sure what’s gotten in to me—it must be the new year. Instead of goals and resolutions, I’m putting out my intentions and making a few small changes. Big goals and big resolutions are overwhelming me, so instead I am just starting with some small tweaks to my daily life. One of these tweaks involves reading more books this year.
Simple, Healthy Switches in the New Year: Here is My List
Are you looking to make some healthier decisions in the new year? Simple, healthy switches are important, and if you haven’t started yet, now is the perfect time! The new year gives all of us a chance to start fresh and new. And if I can do this, so can you!
Progress not perfection is my mantra. Making small changes in your house can make a big difference when it comes to how many toxic chemicals are coming into your home.
The Power of Probiotics: It’s all about the GUT!
When I first took my daughter in to see her pediatrician regarding her chronic stomach issues, his very first question was: “Does Blaine take a daily probiotic?” When I told him no, he told me she needs to be, and actually, I should be taking one too. His advice was everyone should be. Interesting, right?
It made sense to me because I had recently heard health plus wellness genius, Dr. Frank Lipman, tell a packed crowd that our health all depends on our gut. “80 percent of your entire immune system is located in your digestive tract!“ So why should we care about probiotics?
Give Back Giveaway!
Are you ready to give back? Let’s do it together!
I was planning to do a FUN giveaway this weekend for all of you to learn more about Beautycounter’s safe products, as well as a great brand of sunnies that I am loving called DIFF.
When you support DIFF, you are helping someone in need. For every pair of sunglasses sold, DIFF donates a pair of reading glasses to rural Africa. I am LOVING all their sunglasses, and I know you will too.
Now my plans have changed due to MOTHER NATURE! In addition to being able to WIN a FREE pair of these fabulous sunnies, I am also going to be giving back some of my sales from this Beautycounter shopping event to the AMERICAN RED CROSS.
