How many of us spend our time complaining that the dads don't do enough ? Have you ever thought that you are the very reason for that ? If we go back to when our babies are born, we, as the moms, always think we can do better. By us insisting that we can do it better, we are forever making ourselves needed. This sounds lovely but what we are actually doing is pushing our husbands out and creating a space for them to not believe in their capabilities as the dad. It's in this very moment that they take a step back and go "mom does it better" - thus making themselves incompetent. What they then do is leave us to take on the entire load and when our beautiful babies turn into toddlers - well boy is that not when we need the dads the most. Join us for this enlightening episode of releasing control and allowing the dads to step up and own the show. Follow us @zestlylife for all our upcoming workshops

This week we touch base on where we have been and why we have been so quiet.
Our Co-Founder Aimee has been going through a great life change. When we think we have things under our control, life really throws us with curve ball and we are made to STOP, THINK and REASSESS.
The biggest lesson learnt here is to be compassionate with ourselves and others, we don't know what people are going through so we encourage everyone to compassionate kind and caring with others and yourselves.
We touch on the importance of support and your relationship with those around you and how being grounded and connected is so important during this turbulent time.

In this episode, we had the privilege of meeting and chatting to Sara Wainwright, who is extremely passionate about clean beauty products.
After a being diagnosed with cancer in her 20's she made the decision to live a more clean and toxic free life. This meant that she had to take a deeper look into what was serving her and what was not. All these areas included food, people and beauty products.
Her passion for clean beauty products grew and her vision to have these products easily accessible for all woman came to light when she opened Calla Lane, a beautiful company that stands by their promise in sourcing clean beauty products that fit your value systems.
Every woman deserves to feel beautiful both inside and out, and this is exactly what Sara offers you at Calla Lane, have a listen and better yet call Calla Lane for your face mapping and chat about skin products that fit your needs and values.
