Who am I?

Hey! I am Melea Brown and I started my blog to reach out to women who want simple ideas and encouragement for a better way of living. This is an open and honest journey-no perfection here! 

I am a teacher by trade.  I have a teaching degree and taught in a classroom for a couple of years and have been homeschooling for 15 years.  As I transition out of this role, I am finding other outlets to share what I have learned. 

My goal is to delve into lifestyle topics such as:
  • family time
  • easy organizing tips
  • sharing simple recipes
  • how to stay on budget 
  • wellness topics
I am a proud mom to three amazing kids and I get to share my life with my husband and best friend of 23 years!  All of us and our sweet cat hail from Washington state. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit!

The medicine caused my face to get red and peel. I looked forward to getting older, because I mistakenly believed that my face would improve.  It did somewhat, but I had a weird combination of breakouts and dry flaky patches, which continued into my forties. To top it all off, I was diagnosed with rosacea in my late thirties. I never thought my skin looked nice. I would wish that I could have smooth, clear skin, but I didn’t think that would ever happen. Then I learned about essential oil...
