I created this space in order to make sure I practice what I preach and take time each day to reflect and give thanks and gratitude for the very special moments in life. I decided I’d have some fun doing it and share content my readers can connect with and embrace. I have two blogs 1. www.thesocialbeing721.com (Mindfulness, Recipes, Fitness, Articles and Daily Affirmations) 2. www.thesocialbeing721lifestyle.com (Home and Lifestyle Blog. This blog contains home improvement tips, tricks and articles for homeowners. I also discuss products and resources that are related to mindfulness and living a healthy lifestyle.) I hope you enjoy! I live in Chicago and am a seasoned professional with skills in education, training, event planning, social media, technology, marketing and customer service. I love soccer, golf, running, cooking, volunteering, reading, traveling, dinner with friends, being creative, writing, engaging conversations, the beach and sunshine. Inspiration, laughter and human connections keep me grounded and motivated. I'm always hungry to learn and grow! I would love to connect with you! - Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1vf9DYY - Twitter: @kjcarlson312 - Instagram: @thesocialbeing721 - Follow my blogs: http://thesocialbeing721.com & http://www.thesocialbeing721lifestyle.com/ - 'm also on Pinterest and Google+
