Welcome to My Blog!

Hi and thanks for stopping by! My name is Heather. I live outside of Boston, MA with my husband Bill, my 17-year old son Robbie, my 13-year old son Nicholas, my yellow lab Bauer, and our two cats, Tek and Oreo.  I am an attorney and online health and fitness coach.

For a while now, I have wanted to start a blog.  I have had a lot of change in the last six years.  At the age of 40, I started running.  I had always wanted run and finally took the plunge.  What started as running for exercise, soon became signing up for races and running for bling!  Two years later, I lost my 61 year old Mom  to cancer.  She went quickly and her death rocked me to my core.  She was the center of our family and the loss is felt each and every day.  Losing her in the way we did, made me realize how short this life truly is.  Her death has helped shape many of the decisions I have made over the last 4 years.  I have pushed past my comfort zone and have tried and done things I may not have had the courage to do, if not for losing her so young. I  became an online health and fitness coach. I ran my first marathon! I have traveled more places with my family. Speaking of family, I can hardly believe it, but I have one child almost done with high school and another one that will be there in no time. There has been so much going on over the last few years, and so much more to come, that I find myself growing and discovering who I am outside of motherhood.  I look forward to further self-discovery and sharing it with you all along the way.
