Ashley Merrill created her luxury sleepwear line, Lunya, when she couldn't find anything she loved on the market, and realized there was an opportunity to create something great. Follow along her winding journey from dream to fruition, learn practical business acumen, and see how developing a business process is the key to long-lasting success. Connect with Ashley at Lunya.co and Instagram.com/lunya  More at motherhoodunstressed.com  I walked by my bedroom mirror and marveled at my outfit – I was wearing my husband’s old frat t-shirt and rolled up boxer briefs. In the pursuit of comfort, I had let the wheels fall off. This realization sent me on a journey to find comfortable, flattering sleepwear, but the options available didn’t match the modern woman I was or wanted to be. I realized that even though you spend over one-third of your life in bed, sleepwear tends to be the most undervalued part of your wardrobe. It became my mission to make sure that women could feel both comfortable and confident.  Ashley Merrill, Founder + CEO

30+ year Stage 4 Cancer Survivor, James Templeton, reveals how he used an alternative approach to treatment, and why a cancer diagnosis doesn’t have to be a death sentence. Resources: https://templetonwellness.com https://iusedtohavecancer.com  Purchase his book, "I Used to Have Cancer" here If you or a loved one has cancer, there’s reason for hope: More than three decades ago, when I was just 32 years old, I was diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma. Doctors offered me few treatment options. And even less chance for survival. That was the beginning of the fight for my life. I pored over stacks of books and medical papers. I dove into alternative health approaches. I met with cancer survivors to hear their stories. I turned the world upside down looking for something, anything, that would give me an edge over cancer. And you know what? I found it. The thing is though… none of what I found came from traditional medical books or doctors. Instead, my discoveries were rooted in natural approaches and therapies. I’ve since named these discoveries “The Universal Keys to Health”. And if you or a loved one are living with cancer, or you want to cancer-proof your life, then I want to share these “Universal Keys to Health” with you. I’ve created the Templeton Wellness Foundation to bring you breakthrough strategies, tools, and inspiration to help you beat and prevent cancer. I’m living proof that cancer does not have to be a death sentence. And I’m honored to walk with you on your own healing journey.

In a world where money weighs so heavily on our choices, it's strange that nobody feels able to talk about it. Enter Julien and Kiersten Saunders: Founders of the popular financial blog, Rich & REGULAR. Their intention is to change the perception of black wealth in this country, provide a positive example on how to have a successful relationship with money, and offer strategic ways to make your money successfully work for you rather than you working for it.  Connect with Julien + Kiersten @ richandregular.com  Their new program, "Eating Better on a Budget" is out now! More at motherhoodunstressed.com Resources https://richandregular.com rich & REGULAR is a lot of things. It’s a blog, a mindset, a voice and a wake up call to name a few.  You might even say it’s our love story but if we’re really lucky—it’ll be a movement.  One that reverses trends, empowers families and changes lives for the better.   Born out of a bottle of wine overlooking nature’s beauty, the idea for rich & REGULAR came to us in 2015, but the real work started years earlier. We met as co-workers in 2012 and clicked immediately.  When we weren’t working, we traveled, had tons of fun and slowly began to build a life together. With no blueprint to follow, we somehow gained the courage to tackle some really difficult conversations about money.  The outcome was a multi-year plan to eliminate debt from our lives and to build real sustainable wealth.   Between 2013 and 2018, we paid off $200K in debt,boosted our net worth and learned a lifetime of lessons along the way. So here we are, ready to share and to serve as an example of two regular a$$ people living good…on the low.  Thanks for visiting our site.  The best is yet to come. Julien & Kiersten aka Mr. and Mrs. r&R
