Hi there! thanks for stopping by and I hope you found something you like or something that helped you in some way! I just wanted to write a little about Collier Creations, so you know who you’re supporting when you use one of my links. It’s important to know where your money is going. when you buy something through me you’ll be supporting a mom who wanted to stay home with her kids. I am a Massage therapist and nearly all of my tips went to paying for daycare or a babysitter. so when we had our third baby there was just no way we could afford daycare. And to be honest i didn’t really like leaving my kids for someone else to raise.
New Mom and Pandemic
We had our third baby at the beginning of the pandemic when everything shut down for about 5 months. I was kinda elated that I was a new mom again and had a reason to be off work. Was it a bit scary? yes! I had a newborn and the news was telling me there was a virus that they didn’t know how it would affect me. But it was going to be BAD if i caught it, and very likely would end up hospitalized. So que PPD and anxiety to just roll in and make themselves at home. It’s hard being a new mom in general, add on a freaking pandemic and it was like my personal hell. WE did what we could to get through it although I couldn’t wait for summer break!
Back to work
So fast forward a little my place of employment at the time was opening back up and they wanted to know when or IF I was coming back. I decide I’m gonna try it and I go back to work. We have all these stipulations to being open again so why not ill be safe right? on que my anxiety kicks in, and lets my beautiful mind wander about all the things my clients would bring up during the session. I would never have thought of these things while in my perfect little mommy bubble I kept myself in. I started having panic attacks while at work. Needless to say, I was beyond happy when that professional relationship was ended and so was my husband. I didn’t realize it but my mood was a little sour on the days I had to work lol
Whats Next?
Well now that I had all this free time with my kids again, I was actually able to make it to my son’s baseball games and he’s pretty darn good! I did yard work and took the kids on walks. WE went to the playground a lot and the zoo. I felt like something was missing but I was making the most of my time, I knew eventually i would want to bring in a paycheck again. I wanted time with my baby, she’s only going to be this little once and I worked way too much with my first two.
Now don’t get me wrong I love being a massage therapist. It brings me so much joy to help others and to see the difference in them when they left. But being a mom is a part of your life you don’t want to give up for anything. there’s a guarantee every time you leave, you are 100% going to miss something cute or a FIRST, and that cuts deep because you will never get that moment back.
When I needed to I started looking for remote jobs and a few things stood out Affiliate Marketing and Blogging. Why not tell the world what products are worth their time? It’s pretty simple and I could do it while the baby naps. So I came up with Collier Creations as my page and started writing about what I know!
my pages have products that are all really good for a healthy lifestyle, or some of them are just for fun! My favorite product has to be the velovita brand that I sell, check it out here! It changed my life the most within the first few days that I was using it!
