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/

  I try to go through the world with a feeling of kindness and gratitude, greeting others that I pass during the day with a smile, having a little banter, and trying to connect.  We try to infuse our Facebook page with positive messages and quote, something that will make you smile, and just bringing some humanity to the crazy world of parenting. One of my favorite aspects of Myself Belts is providing excellent customer service.  We love talking with customers via phone and email, speaking with stores who carry Myself Belts, and answering questions about our innovative belt.  We all get such energy from...

We are all in back to school mode, whether you are a month into school already or starting next week.  There are so many mixed emotions about heading back to school.  Missing the laziness of summer, eager for structure, disbelief that the kids are a year older, nostalgic about how fast time moves.  All of this is rolled together and makes us all excited, tired, and maybe a little confused!  We wish your kids a great start to school and hope you enjoy a few extra minutes of peace and quiet once you hustle them out the door.

So much has happened in my life and in the life of Myself Belts over the past few months.  I reflected about my lessons learned from my experiences on Shark Tank for a local website and the article was picked up by Entrepreneur.com and Fortune.com.  So exciting! Check it out if you have a chance! Talia  

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...

So the holiday season has ended, whew, tiring but fun!  I love giving gifts and seeing if I got it right.  The challenge is trying to think of fun gifts that will be long-lasting, and that they won't tire of after a few weeks.  I thought that I would share the winners from this holiday season.  The gifts that brought the biggest smiles from the kids in my life.   The first is Buckyballs.  These are tiny, strong magnets that have occupied many hours of fun in my house.  Definitely a choking hazard so I wouldn't recommend them for kids under...
