How long do you stay hiding after you've had an accident on the carpet? 🤷‍♀️

In this day and age of customer service, customer surveys, accountability, and owning your stuff.....how long are you waiting to clean up, or clear up "a hair on a deal" or just a plain old good fashioned screw-up, or screw-over?

“You have so much. Why are you complaining?”

“You have more than we ever had.”

“Honey, there are people who want what you have.”

“What do you want?”

I was not allowed to complain. I was not allowed to feel overwhelmed. (I would deny I was, because I didn’t know the name of the word for the emotion I was feeling)

I just love these kids!

Lots of days whether they like it or not. 🫶🏻

I started the mom journey at 18 years old. I’m 45 now, & it never ends even when they think it does. 😂

This kid was the second little pea, out of three, harvested out of my pod on July 26th, 2007!

Isabella Kathryn, was supposed to be the third, out of three, born that day, but....she had other ideas. That week, she climbed over her brother, Michael, and took his spot. Yes...the fight that has lasted 15 years, actually started in-utero. They are ALL still EXACTLY the same!

I had a consultation about the SEO on my websites. I was told I needed to tell my story in order for people to believe and understand I could help them, and what gives me the wisdom to do so.

The very short version of the story is:

My biological father died two years ago.

Them: Tanja, what was it like having Triplets?

Me: Do not recommend 😉

I love every single one of my children. Without a doubt, AND, human beings were not intended to have litters. 🤷‍♀️ Just sayin.

Back in my early twenties, when I was a single mom with my oldest daughter, Rebecca, I ran gyms, and personal trained at Bally Total Fitness and Fitness Connection.

I hate this picture so much! It was a fantastic moment in my life, and a picture anyone in Keller Williams would frame. I hate the way I look, and it's one of the worst versions of my physical appearance I've ever been in. The irony is, the orange letters in the background say, "Empower Yourself."

"Tanja, you might be an 8...that's just the way I see it." said someone I was in a committed relationship with a few years back.

On August 12th, 2021, my daughter Olivia was admitted for acute liver failure to Memorial Herman Children's hospital downtown Houston.
