I wake up each morning and make my schedule, and when I do, I plan the work around when I'll be able to handle it best.
— Rachel Hollis
Some of the best dishes I can remember are from my childhood. Sometimes, whenever I want to feel like a kid again, I just whip them up for the family.
'The Power of Habit' is the exact kind of non-fiction I love. It's smart and interesting, and it changes your perception how you do what you do or why you are who you are.
Ever since I was little, I loved soup! Whether I was sick or had a bad day, my momma would always make me soup!
I have been a working mom as long as I've been a mom.
I love breakfast! Not only is it the most important meal of the day, but I loved waking up to - the smell of bacon in the morning was my favorite thing as a kid!
You have to attach some sort of emotional reason to any big goal you're after, or you will give up.
I can't even count the number of times I've obliterated my diet with a binge session. One second, I'm floating along just fine, four days into a successful low-carb lifestyle. The next? I'm standing alone in a dark kitchen, eating a sleeve of Ritz crackers and cream cheese with a spoon.
Being a boss takes guts and tenacity. Being a boss takes hustle and strength. Getting to the level of boss takes hard work - often times, harder than our male counterpoint because in many industries, we're fighting our way into a boys' club.
My husband is a high-level executive at one of the largest media companies on the planet. He leads a worldwide team of more people than I can keep track of. He worked his way up from an assistant with drive and determination.
Every single day I'm alive or you're alive, we're choosing this life and this persona. We choose to be the stay-at-home mom who loves baking and Pilates. We choose to be a hipster who loves coffee shops and artisan goods. We choose to be a lawyer who runs marathons and only eats organic.
We all know you can't have a Fourth of July barbecue without the fixings that go with it.
Avocados are not just for guacamole! You can just about add it to anything for a little more flavor!
I am one of the most organized people I have ever met, and even with all my planning, I still feel like I'm constantly forgetting things.

We love pasta at the Hollis home! It's super easy, and there's so many different recipes we can make that the boys never get tired of having it.
Cooking with a cast iron skillet is great because it can also be used for presentation! Simply prepare a delicious meal within it and display it on the table for all to enjoy.
I never thought I would be cool enough to pull off a leather jacket. But then I found the perfect one, and it's so versatile!
When it comes to business, diets, working out, writing, or any other dream, success isn't about how high you fly. Success is about how high you bounce.
There's nothing better on Christmas morning than waking up to the smell of breakfast!
Being a boss has been one of the greatest privileges and challenges of my life.
Was there ever a better invention in the cookie world than the Oreo?
For years, I've admired wrist tattoos, but I was always afraid that they would hurt - I'm kind of a weenie about pain. In fact, it's why I wear so many bracelets on my left wrist. The bracelets represented the words or phrases I'd want to get tattooed but didn't have the courage to.
Summer at the Hollis household is all about us getting together and enjoying the pool, and Fourth of July is probably one of my favorite holidays to do just that.
Dips are the perfect appetizer for any outdoor party! They are super easy to make and equally delicious!
Having kids in school feels stressful for me.
I love slow cooker recipes - especially during the fall.
I've tried digital planners and fancy planners and date books galore, but my tried and true is actually just a large spiral-bound notebook.
Let's be honest: you can't celebrate fall without it's leading role - pumpkin! You can incorporate this flavor of the season in so many ways, from candles to lattes, pies to decorations.
I pretty much live in my denim jacket. The best thing about this piece is that I can wear it for every season.
Falling down doesn't matter, even if you do it a hundred times. All that matters is that you get up again.
The best way to celebrate the holidays is with some delicious food.
To qualify the term 'boss' by adding 'girl' or 'babe' or 'honey' or 'pink' or whatever other ridiculous, antiquated-gender role assignment the media thinks is cute this month, is, at the least, disrespectful and at the worst, damaging to the way young women view themselves and our fight for equality in the business world.
Every single part of our persona, no matter how long we've rocked it, is a choice we make every day.
There's no better way to treat your Valentine then with a delicious meal.
