Quotes:
"I've been down that road before where I have been up late after my husband's gone to sleep, working on my website or my blog post and creating content and that sort of thing in the past. And I know I cannot go down that road again."

"You can only do so much, and you need to learn your limits, and you need to put boundaries in place."
