Navigating Uncomfortable Conversations at the Holiday Dinner Table!!

Although the holidays are a time to be grateful for the people you’re bonded with for life, it can sometimes be difficult. The holidays bring together a lot…

Soft Feet OVERNIGHT!! #zimsusa
Flip flops are a way of life for me. I am barefoot or in flip-flops almost year around. It’s a great perk for living in Southern California! ‘Course it doesn’t even out the whole earthquake thing but it’s a great perk none the less.
