Be Earth's Hero

Other countries refer to it as “International Mother Earth Day.” That's the name it was given by the United Nations in 2009. Here in the United States we simply call it “Earth Day”. Either way, we are fortunate to call Earth home and we need to respect her. Earth Day was created in 1970 by Wisconsin senator Gaylord Nelson and is celebrated yearly on April 22 with the intention of raising awareness about pollution and the need to take care of our environment by reducing, reusing, and recycling resources. There is no Planet B. This year’s Earth Day theme is Restore Our Earth, which reminds us that because we require a healthy Earth to support our lives, our health and our survival, each of us must...

Riding the Wave...

It’s been building for some time and all I needed was a gentle push. So it is with sheer excitement that I am introducing my new online store SURGE boutique!   Starting something new wasn’t easy. There were road blocks, negativity and intimidation. I was fortunate to connect with inspiring, talented mentors and advisors – all who helped me persevere and who continue to guide me.I love this quote from an unknown author:“Friends are like walls. Sometimes you lean on them, and sometimes it’s good just knowing they are there”.I knew at some point in my life, I wanted to be surrounded by fashion and share it with friends. You know that saying “when you feel good, you look good”? It’s...
