Make Schools Safe Again!
What has worked in the past with school safety is no longer working. We need to upgrade school safety with the times and make schools safe again for our children. I am not a person who gets into politics but I am a mother and have an invested interest in keeping my children safe. I'm all for everyone having their own beliefs as long as their beliefs do not affect the safety of those around them. Today that is NOT happening. I have three issues I am currently trying to fig
Gut Health and Probiotics
I think there is something more to eating whole real foods and fermented foods than what is actually on the label. My beliefs about consuming whole foods came about a few years ago when I had a horrible intestinal infection called clostridium difficile colitis aka c-diff.

Photos, shoots, and not looking pregnant
After having three kids, there is a good chance if you catch me at the pool on any given day you will think I look at least three months pregnant when I'm not flexing. If I'm flexing you will think," Wow, how does Emily have a six pack after three kids?" This literally can change in the matter of one second by just flexing. Keep that in mind when looking at any photo of me including the one below! On days I have photoshoots, I eat very little in the morning. During my most
