52 Healthy Habits to #Maximize YOUR Life
What is your definition of health? Mine is “Living a purpose driven life, happy and surrounded by family.” I bet mine is slightly different than yours and thats OK. Read the list below and if you want to learn more about each of these items and why they made my list, then stick around. Over the few months, I hope you join me as I will blog on the following 52 Habits to #Maximize your life. My mission is to empower 10,000 moms with the tools to #maximize her life, grow a profitable biz from home and life a life of freedom. I want to educate and coach women
