I am taking this opportunity to tell you something very personal and actually very scary for me. I have started a blog and all my posts will be to that end.
If you know me well, you know that I am an introvert – an extreme introvert. (Sounds like a confession of sorts, doesn’t it?!) What that means for me is that my energy comes from within. Interaction with others has always been on a surface level until I get to know you very well. Even then, I don’t share a great deal of myself on a personal level. Therefore, this blog is a huge leap of faith for me!
My blog is H.E.R. Life Hacks at https://herlifehacks.com. H.E.R. stands for Home Economics Reimagined. As you may know, my career began as a home economics teacher. Currently, the term Home Economics is no longer used. It is now Family and Consumer Sciences (FACS). However, since I was a home economics teacher, I chose to keep that terminology and add the term “reimagined”, because the skills I learned throughout my education and career have continued to grow and evolve with changing times. And at this point in my life, I believe I have something to offer to others who are doing their best to juggle personal lives and careers, manage family responsibilities and live their lives with intention in an increasingly noisy and complicated world.
Home economics (or Family and Consumer Sciences) is so broad and encompasses so many facets of life that it is difficult to narrow the focus of my blog. On H.E.R. Life Hacks website, blog posts are categorized as Home Style, Lifestyle and Food. My goal is to address topics and tips that help you save time, money and energy.
I am looking to you, my readers, to help me narrow the focus to specific topics that meet your needs. That will help me write and share posts that will eventually define H.E.R. Life Hacks. Your continual feedback is needed to get to that point. If something doesn’t hit the mark for you, I’m asking you to share your thoughts with me. In addition, if a post addresses your needs, let me know if you’d like to see more of a specific topic.
