Hi there, I’m Alice!

GRAB A CUP OF COFFEE OR TEA AND LET’S CHAT.

Here I am doing one of my favorite things…hiking! We were camping in the north Georgia mountains. This was the day we hiked the 5 mile trail from our campsite to Helen, GA…a funky little town designed to look like it belongs somewhere in Bavaria. This trip was just what I needed.

But it didn’t start out that way!   

Going into this trip I was full of anxiety and sliding into depression. My mom had just been given a terrible diagnosis. My husband and I were still repairing a marriage which almost ended in divorce. Our sons were both struggling with big life changes as they reached adulthood. The nest was emptying…and it felt like my life was, too. And yet this smile looks like everything is just fine. Do you have times like this, too?

And that’s exactly what Three Quarters Full is all about.

Years of putting on a happy face took their toll on me mentally and physically. If you know the feeling, this space is for you. This will be a place to push back on negativity and stress with new habits and optimism. Oh, it will also include plenty of goofiness and fun…because that’s how our family rolls.

Trust me. Positive thinking and optimistic living will get you a long way. Life will still be hard, but with a few new habits, your mental and physical well-being will become more resilient. I hope you’ll come along as we approach this one, precious life by learning to see it three quarters full.
