We recently had a written Q & A with TJ of the Shark Tank Podcast.  I enjoy these opportunities to reflect on all that has happened over the past year.  Life is so busy that it is nice to have the chance to step back and realize all that has changed and shifted.  It is amazing that a year has gone by since we aired on Shark Tank on Halloween.  Check out the update on the link below! http://www.sharktankpodcast.net/myself-belts-update-1-year-after-the-shark-tank/

One of my favorite things about summer is how the whole family dives into summer reading.  There just seems to be more time to enjoy a good book.  I love walking into a room and seeing my kids reading away!  Trips to the library are a common occurrence, and it's amazing how many times we have gone to the library so far this summer.  Everyone is more relaxed (including me!) and we all have a more time to "smell the roses" and get into a good book.  Favorites around our house are the Divergent series for older kids, Chris Colfer's...

Anyone who watched Myself Belts on Shark Tank on Halloween knows what happened.  It was intense.  Or should I capitalize it and say INTENSE!  It truly was rough, and although I know it was a reality television show, I did feel like I had been in a fight and was definitely bruised.  It is complicated emotionally though because the story has a happy ending, a Daymond John partnership. Going In The Tank My decision to apply for Shark Tank didn't have anything to do with money.  The "ask" was kind of arbitrary to me because I was there for a...

As the crazy week of our Shark Tank airing approaches, I have been reflecting on how all of this came to be...It truly is something that I never thought would actually happen.  Of course I hoped that I would have the opportunity to pitch to the sharks, introduce the world to Myself Belts, and hopefully have a new strategic partner.  These were just wishes though, crazy pipe dreams that we all have when we fantasize about exciting wild ideas.   Shark Tank Isn't For Me...Or is it? I started watching Shark Tank a few years ago when a business consultant mentioned...
