USA Health Children’s & Women’s Hospital Expands Pediatric Emergency Center
Last spring the healthcare community of Mobile, Alabama announced the opening of the new Pediatric Emergency Center at USA Health Children’s and Women’s Hospital. The University of South Alabama Health System has long since been a leading provider for pediatric services by offering advanced care within their multifaceted children’s department. While the hospital already had a pediatric emergency center, the expansion has more than doubled its size. It also offers new features for providing a more comprehensive and specialized level of care for individualized circumstances. We were lucky enough to get to tour the new facility and learn about the new program/attributes our city has gained in the healthcare world.…

What’s Next: A Retreat for Burnout Recovery
As mothers we have both experienced a burnout stage. While we have our unique stories, the walls we hit with full force seemed similar in that, we were both searching for the next step in our roles as moms, wives, business owners, and individuals.

While not seeking a full time job, this mom found some…

Or at least I did before I tried the Pura smart diffuser. With four boys in my house, the odors can be overwhelming. They play hard and are just pretty gross in general, as you can imagine. It is difficult to keep things clean and even after cleaning, sweaty little boys that play outside a lot just stink. The smelly socks/shoes, the great outdoors, and the obsession with tooting is quite difficult to mask. Thankfully, Pura came into my life…
