I think I am writing this post because I feel a little guilty. I have been the number one advocate of mornings.

December 16, 2014 by Rebekah in ETC. OMG, WTF I can’t believe it is December! Where did the year go?! Part of the reason for my December Denial has to be the weather. Thanksgiving weekend was the 70’s and it hasn’t gotten much colder since.
This year has been a whirlwind. When I think back to where I was in January to where I am now, it is crazy. I am a nostalgic person, so when I sat down to write this blog post about all that has happened I got a little teary eyed.

November 21, 2014 by Rebekah in ETC. This summer Glamtrepreneur was pushing full steam ahead with 12 “BizGlam” workshops in a very short amount of time. It was exhilarating and made me feel like I was doing something towards reaching my ultimate goal. And while lately life and work have caused Glam to take a more passive role, it has not been forgotten.
