I’ve never even given this a thought; okay well I have. But it was more like “one day” instead of realizing how important it is to take care of yourself. Maybe it’s because I am always doing something or wanting to make sure everyone else’s needs around me are cared for. But I’m slowly realizing once you give give give, your tank will eventually get low and you won’t be able to give 110% anymore.

Four Reasons Local Moms Should Join Southern Oaks Athletic Club Before kids, my husband and I were very active. From triathlons to sand volleyball, we were always competing with one another. This active lifestyle was put on hold though with the birth of our first child as we learned the ropes of parenthood. After my twins were born though, I was ready to get active again. I bought a three-month subscription to Beachbody on Demand and stared at my TV for a few weeks while Amber told me “I got this.” What...
