  • One Small Change Challenge: Step #3 – taking accountability for my inaction(s).

    #onesmallchange

    I’m very excited to be partnering with the good folks over at Puritan’s Pride in accepting their One Small Change challenge: to make one very personal (yet simple) change toward healthier living and then committing myself to remain accountable by posting my progress in a three-part blog series, throughout the month.

    The Brain Dump

    Now that it’s October, the beginning of cold and flu season (a.k.a. creeping crud) here in Jersey, I’m very excited to be partnering with the good folks over at Puritans Pride in accepting their One Small Change challenge: to make one very personal (yet simple) change toward healthier living and then committing myself to remain accountable by posting my progress in a three-part blog series, throughout the month.

    Okay, that’s great, but why?!?

    That’s a very fair question and I am MORE than happy to tell you EXACTLY why, thanks:  because I’m hoping to help encourage other folks to slow down, take a few minutes out of every day, to think about simple ways you can take good care of YOU, too!
