Greetings from Chaton's World in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! My days often start with laundry, early-morning emails, and making my kids a hot breakfast. They often end with late-night homework checks, making Instagram reels, and appearing on Celebrity Court of Public Opinion.

Here, you’ll find honest reflections, hard-earned lessons, and practical strategies for creating an authentic life that you enjoy. If you’re trying to do it all without losing yourself in the process, you have found your sister in the struggle!  Continue reading to discover some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world.

Wordless Wednesday: The Beauty of Flower #PGHGoesRed

on
Nothing beats Free Flowers




Last Friday I was honored to attend the Pittsburgh Go Red for Women Luncheon. It is a great event for a great cause. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the United States. It kills nearly half a million women each year at the rate of about one per minute.  For that reason, fundraisers like the Go Red for Women Luncheon matter.  

Because of the nature of my work, I am pulled into a lot of matters unexpectedly. One of those matters pulled me out of the Go Red for Women Luncheon. I missed the majority of the event,
including the keynote speaker, Muriel Hemingway. Indeed, I was not done with my call until they had cleared the tables. I was disappointed because I had planned on attending and because I missed the awesome looking dessert, which was angel food cake topped with chocolate sauce and berries. It was a treat I would have enjoyed!

Before I could feel sorry for myself, someone offered me a couple of the centerpieces. The flowers in the above photo were in there. Just like that, I felt better!
