Sippin with LaShawn

Tell me if this sounds familiar...

You are juggling work, responsibilities, a house that never stays clean, and a to-do list that somehow gets longer every day.

Some days you feel like you're getting things done, and other days it feels like you're running in place.

Something I've learned, especially this year, is that life gets a whole lot better when you find ONE thing that makes your day easier.

For me, that one thing lately has been going to the gym.

Not because I suddenly love exercising. 😆

But because it gives me an hour where I'm focused on myself instead of everything else that needs my attention.

I leave feeling less stressed, I sleep better, and even on the days I don't feel like going, I'm usually glad I did.

It's a small thing, but it's made a big difference in how I feel.

What is ONE thing that makes your day easier, even if it feels small? I want to try what you do.

3 things you might not know about me:

🌺 I love flowers, but I have no green thumb.

📺 I've been on TV.

🌊 I love the water, but I can't swim.

Now it's your turn! What's one thing I might be surprised to learn about you?

Beach day, pool day or stay inside where it's cool.
Which are you choosing?

After a long week, relaxing with a glass on a beautiful summer Friday night is priceless.

What's your Friday night vibe

You don’t need a huge house to host a memorable wine night 🍷

Just good friends, good wine, and a little space to make memories.

If you’re in CT and want details on hosting your own tasting, message me for details--
and if you’re outside CT, I offer virtual tastings too.

This week we’re raising a glass with purpose. 🍷🇺🇸

As caregivers, family members, and friends, many of us know someone who has served, sacrificed, or supported others through difficult times.

The Glory wine is especially meaningful because it supports veteran-related causes and reminds us that gathering together can make an impact.

Share a military connection, story, or someone you’d like to honor below. ❤️

And if you’d like to learn more while enjoying great wine and community, we’d love to have you join us for our AMW Wine Tasting on June 19th!

First outdoor walk toward this 5K done ✔️

Not gonna lie… outside walking is VERY different than the treadmill 😂

Now it’s time to get my feet up and relax for the evening 🍷

This is for the women who are always taking care of everyone else.

The women balancing work, family, caregiving, schedules, stress, and responsibilities — while still trying to find time for themselves somewhere in the middle of it all.

You don’t need to plan a huge event or complicated outing to reconnect with your friends and finally unwind.

Sometimes all you need is:
🍷 good wine
🧀 simple bites
💬 great conversation
😂 laughter
✨ and a reason to finally say “let’s do it.”

Private wine tastings are designed to make gathering together feel easy, relaxed, and memorable.

Because you deserve moments that are about YOU too.

You are not alone. 💕

Caregiving is heavy. This week reminded me just how important it is to allow ourselves those moments—crying, sitting still, sipping a glass of wine, or simply breathing.

It’s not selfish. It’s survival. Taking even five minutes for yourself makes you stronger, so you can keep showing up for the ones you love.

If you needed this reminder today: you’re not alone. 🕊️
