Follow my journey as I learn how to juggle employee schedules (so I don’t have to work all the time!) and making sure we have enough inventory to sell vs. not overstocking those products that are not moving as fast.  Wow… what a ride!  Business school?  Not needed.  I’m in my own boot camp right now.

This week I vlog about the craziness of being a new mom and opening a holiday shop for Om Aroma in Manhattan.  I also talk about how to learn from others who are doing what you want to be doing.

I vlog about opening up a shop at Bryant Park for the holiday season for Om Aroma.  I will be chronicling my journey and sharing the lessons learned about sales, PR, marketing, managing employees, balancing life as a new mom, and so much more.

I have a story to tell you about the day that I gave birth to our baby daughter, Sienna Lucy Stedman. It's not about being in labor for what seemed like three days. It's not about the epidural wearing off and the horrible pains that emerged right before Sienna came into this world. It's about remembering an important vow to myself. I had to pinch myself in the middle of the night at the hospital... it felt like Christmas only this was so much bigger. There she was in her own tiny little crib next to my hospital bed. My baby girl! I was...

Our baby daughter has arrived and already I’m learning so much from her! I feel more energetic, focused and have clarity even though I’m sleep deprived.  How?  One thing at a time…

So what do you if you have spent thousands of dollars on a business decision only to realize that it is not the right path? Do you continue on or do you back up and start from ground zero again? Watch as I weigh out my dilemma.

I love berries... blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries. In this blog post, I focus in on why I am officially obsessed with the Red Raspberry. With its vibrant red color and melt-in-your-mouth texture, it's hard not to adore Red Raspberries. The slightly-tart taste mixed with a bit of natural sweetness makes this a perfect fruit to savor on a hot summer's day. On top of it all, it's packed with anti-oxidants for both skin care and health benefits. What's not to love about the Red Raspberry?

Who knew that eating whole and organic meals would not only nourish me but also help to save us money? It's true what they say: Less is More. This was me then: My problem is that I'm busy; I eat to savor, but mostly with my crazy schedule, I eat to survive the day. I don't plan our meals and decide on a whim what to eat. And when I get hungry, I don't care what I put in my body. I'll stuff muffins, bagels, crackers, cookies.... whatever, get some food in me NOW!  Since I don't plan my meals in advance,...

Recently I was asked to be a guest on various TV segments on throwing an Eco-Chic Baby Shower. Finding unique earth-friendly gifts was challenging but a lot of fun! After hours of research and mulling over the best gifts and resources out there, here are some of my favorite finds: 1. Organic Monkey Gift Set - $59.99 Conventional cotton is grown with pesticides that can be toxic for your baby.  When it comes to plush stuffed animals, babies love to put those cute things in their mouths so make sure it's toxic-free!  Book Bouquet pairs this sweet orange monkey with an organic cotton...

I just had my very first live TV segment as a Green Lifestyle Expert. I've always been the one who pitched the press for Om Aroma so it was an eye-opening experience to be on the other side of the fence of being pitched. I tried to observe as much as I could in order to share with you what works and what doesn't. This vlog is about what you can do to get your product on TV through gift guide experts. On a side note, I had an extremely stressful situation getting to the TV station.  We were caught in some massive traffic getting there,...
