Parenting during the pandemic; 7 parents, 7 perspectives.

February 9, 2021 by Maya Fitz

I was recently speaking to a friend of mine who asked me how I was ‘doing it all’ during the pandemic. My reply? I’m not… I’m drowning and my head is barely above water.

December 9, 2020 by Maya Fitz

The holiday season is upon us! In our house we celebrate both Hanukkah and Christmas. That means twice the fun, twice the food, and twice the gifts (for my kids). The thing is, when it comes to gift giving for the holidays, it’s always been about the kids. Both my own and for my nieces […]

My new workout routine includes the all new Orangetheory Live

December 4, 2020 by Maya Fitz

Just before COVID, I was strong and healthy; probably in the best shape of my life. A few months earlier, I completed my first marathon and then started working out at Orangetheory Fitness.

November 20, 2020 by Maya Fitz

This year I’m celebrating a birthday milestone. Well, I wouldn’t exactly say ‘celebrating’ since we’re in the middle of a pandemic. My original hopes included a trip to Japan with John and throwing a small bash at home with our closest friends. However, I was still determined to make the most of the situation. Since […]

40 things I learned in 40 years

November 19, 2020 by Maya Fitz

I guess it’s official… I’m 40. It both feels like a privilège (to age), but it also hit me like a ton of bricks. I’m grateful, but I’m also not happy about it. With that I guess, comes some life lessons. Mostly that the more I learn, the less I know. However, I have picked […]
