Bee is for Babywearing | Meet your Consultant!

That’s when I met Bee from ‘Bee is for Babywearing’. A Certified babywearing consultant, small shop owner & all-around badass mama of 3 wild bees!

We’ve partnered up to give you the gift of her hands-on experience & resources in this guest post & if you hang in there till’ the end, there’s a link below for a chance to buy a custom toddler wrap conversion! (and with every entry, you’ll instantly get a coupon to her shop!) Continue reading

I am worth fighting for.

“The best we can do, then, in response to our incomprehensible and dangerous world, is to practice holding equilibrium internally–no matter what insanity is transpiring out there.” Continue reading
