Morning Harvest, Pea Shoots Going Down for the Win!

Posted on September 4, 2021September 3, 2021 by Drew Taddia

These tiny little stems are jam packed with nutrients, they are fresh and crispy, you can add them to just about anything and they are a fun little project to take me away from computer work or my desk which I’m experimenting with a stand up option. This is also really good for fine motor skills and did you know the color green is also beneficial to the eyes especially if you’re in front of a screen most of the day. I always suggest having a green plant in your workplace and takin...

No Plastic Bags

Posted on September 3, 2021September 3, 2021 by Drew Taddia

I was at the grocery store, loaded up the counter at the till and my phone rang. So I was only half paying attention when the clerk started filling my produce in plastic bags. I said, no plastic bags please. She must have thought I was talking to the person on the phone. So I went over and started taking my groceries out of the plastic bag (while still on the phone). She looked at me seemingly upset, I whispered with a smile, I don't need plastic bags thank you. Then she rolled her eye...

Being a Bad Mom

Posted on August 14, 2021August 11, 2021 by Drew Taddia

Dorothy talking about 'Being a Bad Mom!' Along with Toxic Thoughts! "He didn't sleep at all last night 😴 I am such a bad mom"I listened as a client that was very frustrated after a sleep-less night with her baby. I tried to help and offer advice but not being a mom myself I felt like I wouldn't be able to relate. I started thinking about self-talk and how very hard we are on ourselves. Most things we say to ourselves are so nasty we wouldn't even think about saying them to anyone e...

We’re Quick to Judge Aren’t We

Posted on August 12, 2021August 16, 2021 by Drew Taddia

We’re quick to judge aren’t we, we’re also quick to make assumptions. At least I am.Recently I had an appointment scheduled, a rather important one and I didn’t hear from the person. So I thought maybe they were blowing me off, maybe they forgot, maybe they didn’t consider it all that important. Which of course didn’t make me happy.Not long after I found out there was a family emergency and the appointment wasn’t possible or at least, certainly at that time, not a priority, which was clearl...

What happens when you search for something on the web

Posted on August 10, 2021August 10, 2021 by Drew Taddia

It's clear most people don't care, but I think even less may actually know about what happens when you search for something on the web. And at least to me, it comes down to choice.For example, most of us think we control our Facebook newsfeed - when in fact we don't. Maybe to a degree with what we click on. For example the more of something you click on the more you get. You click on a shoes page, guaranteed shoes ads will pop up along with more shoes posts (even if you don't want them).Goo...

We Really Do Care About the Products We Sell

Posted on June 15, 2021June 15, 2021 by Drew Taddia

I was just doing product research looking through dozens of products and reading feedback on Amazon and I couldn't help but take a step back and think, wow, people sure can be ugly can't they? We're not on Amazon, at least not yet. But to be honest with you, if that's what I have to look forward to, we may be by passing that option. I'd much rather sell our products to people we know, people that trust us, understand us, and even those we've known for years. People we hang out with, go to...
