What it means to be a M.O.M.

Do you know those little books you can grab in the checkout line at Barnes and Noble? Well, my mom left me one on the table when I got back from my Portland trip. It has all sorts of sayings that we hear every day, but I have to tell you, it doesn’t hurt to read them again.  Better yet, hear them from someone else. So whether you are a mom, or have a mom, to me, we all M.O.M.S.  When I first named the studio, I was pregnant with Liza and motherhood was on the brain. So when MIND OVER MATTER spelt MOM, I thought it was brilliant. Unfortunately, i learned that the name excluded people and potential customers didn’t know what we did or who we were. So i changed the name but M.O.M is still with us in our method. We are MIND OVER MATTER women.

So what is a “M.O.M” or a “mother”? Here is my list of who we are as a studio and as women:

We are friends. We give advice and support. We love and laugh.  We provide sanity and safety. We inspire and include. We are never judge or criticize.  We encourage and motivate. We are a house and your home. So whether you look at “MOM” as your mom, a female figure in your house , yourself or our studio, we are all powerful women in this world and each one of us is someone special. You are all special to me and each one of you is my MIND OVER MATTER Barre Beauty. So continue to be who you are and enjoy your Mother’s Day Weekend with your loved ones.

Sharing Barre Love,
