When I was invited by Lynn of Organic Mania to join the Green Mom’s Carnival I wasn’t sure what I was [...]

My new position as a Great Start Parent Coalition Coordinator has already connected me with some amazing people and opportunities. From parents telling me their stories about how important early childhood education is to hearing Steve Covey speak. Friday I was able to meet Mr. McFeely, the character that delivered the mail to Mr. Roger. [...]

I currently have a General Motors vehicle and have noticed on all the major “green” websites or high traffic sites with ad agencies, there are GM ads for their Hybrid SUV.  I never see Ford anywhere and this made me wonder.

The busier my life becomes the more I am appreciating small, short, to the point books. Books with a big message but few pages. Live Generously, 50 Small Acts That Make A Big Difference, happens to be one of those books that we all should have on our night stand and frequently flip [...]

I love it when I come across a person that starts a company for the same reasons I did, to clean safer and more natural. To help people and the environment. To educate.  Robin Levine is a woman I can relate to. She has started a company called, Eco-Me to provide 100% natural kits for [...]
