A Big Milestone for Me
I Am Officially Four Years Without a Cigarette
Two days ago, I hit four years without a cigarette! I quit during a very stressful time in my life and continued to stay smoke free during the next year, which would somehow be even more stressful.
My cousin’s husband told me he was able to quit when he had his daughter, and I quit just a few months before my son was born. Thinking about my future and my health was a big factor in helping me quit.
It wasn’t easy, but I pulled it off. Cold turkey, too.
If you are looking to quit, try switching out a cigarette for things like flavoured toothpicks, floss picks, mints, other things like that. Play with a fidget spinner. Of course, I know it isn’t that easy.
I know people who have also used Chantix and it has eliminated the want or need to ever smoke another cigarette.
Here’s to another four years without that nasty habbit!

Another New Avenue
I recently finished recording my first course. It is called How to Make Your LinkedIn Profile Stand Out and it is geared towards jobseekers who are looking to update their LinkedIn profile to make it stand out more to recruiters. You can learn more about it below.
I also entered another new avenue, publishing my first children’s book! It is called Everything Else Inside of My House and it teaches kids about the different rooms in their house and how to behave in them.
You can pick up a paperback or Kindle copy of the book here!
