About Tara

Hola!

I’m Tara, and I’m so glad you’re here. Whether you’re here to shop some random favorites of mine, chat about mental health, or just to be nosey (everybody creeps), welcome! I’m a doctorally prepared family nurse practitioner and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I genuinely love what I do so much. I also love being a mom – as corny as some people think that is. We fought like hell through 3 rounds of IVF to have the most perfect child I could never have imagined. I believe in Jesus and his resounding love.

The older I get the more I seem to detest social media. I enjoy this blog because it’s just that, a blog. Instagram was fun, but I’m never on it anymore. I deleted TikTok ages ago. There’s so much misinformation floating around out there with countless bullies and toxic comparisons. This blog has always been a way to get my thoughts out of my head without the hysteria of social media and pressures to like/comment/subscribe/follow/blah blah blah.

I don’t update often because mom life and work life keep me B-U-S-Y, but I’m hoping to pick it up a little bit more. Glad you’re here, and drop me a line if there’s anything you want to chat about šŸ™‚

What do I talk about?

You’ll find so many things here..

Home decor, beauty, a tiny bit of travel, health/mental health, and a few recipes… LOTS to browse!

Beauty

What I’m Shopping for my skin

My latest beauty/skincare purchase is this Augustus Bader rich cream that’s been hyped up all over social media. It was on sale at Sephora so I figured it was a good time to try the mini size (which is still a splurge). More thoughts to come.

What I’m Shopping for the house

I’ve been wanting to update our “battle station” organization wall and found this aesthetically pleasing trio from Pottery Barn. I love it! It now lives across from our personalized acrylic calendar I bought when we initially built the house.

What I’m Shopping for in my closet

Now that I work (mostly) from home, shout out to virtual healthcare, I pretty much live in comfort. Give me all the matching sets and jumpsuits! The beauty of Zoom is 100% being able to be in sweatpants unbeknownst to the other party. This jumpsuit is definitely a splurge, but I love the brand Varley. Compared to similar finds on Amazon, the fabric is luxe, softer, and just lasts so much longer! I shall be living in this garment all summer long.

Mental Health is everything!

Mental health is something I’m incredibly passionate about and the reason why I went into psychiatry!

For my own sanity, I stopped “influencing” a few years ago – and honestly it was the best decision. The pressure of constant content creation and the endless shilling of “mostly” unnecessary products was just a lot. Once the baby was born, my Instagram essentially went dark. Just not a priority anymore. Don’t even get me started on TikTok. But – if you want to explore things I’m shopping and/or find useful – here’s my Amazon storefront!
