Hello fabulous friends! Buckle up your seatbelts (or should I say your most fashionable belts) because we're about to dive into the wisdom pool with none other than Judge Stephanie Boyd.
Judge Boyd kicks things off with a nostalgic trip down memory lane, back to her roots in Shreveport, Louisiana. Apparently, this judge was once a little hustler, earning her keep with good old-fashioned chores. Who knew yard work could lead to the bench? I can barely get my petunias to bloom on time. Boyd's escapades were all about a carefree childhood and the kind of positive vibes that we all wish we could bottle up and spritz on during those less-than-stellar days.
We also didn't shy away from getting deep, pondering the big ideas like positive influence, positive parenting, and the art of not messing up your kids. It's all about drawing the line between oops-a-daisy and 'I meant to do that'—like remembering (or forgetting) your umbrella when the forecast screams rain.
Speaking of forecasts, Judge Boyd and I have weathered our own personal storms, with their houses turning into indoor pools (I mean, floods, not the fun kind). Boyd's been camping out in a hotel since October and spilled the tea on hose maintenance (every 10 years, folks—put it in your calendars now).
And because no chat is complete without some self-love, we talk about aging like fine wine and learning to say no more than a toddler. Hydration with fancy cups and straws? Check. Skincare routines that would make a K-beauty guru bow down? Double-check. Judge Boyd's even got a flower-and-purse ritual to remind us to treat ourselves, because let's face it, we deserve it.
Now, let's get real for a sec. The world's not all rainbows and bookfests, and Judge Boyd's career reminds us of that. She's worn the defense attorney hat, represented kiddos in CPS cases, and is a huge advocate for treating everyone with kindness in the courtroom. She's not just there to lay down the law; she's there to listen, to understand, and to treat people as, well, people.
Our fabulousJudge Boyd also drops some knowledge about transparency in the courts and utilizing platforms like YouTube to let people have a peek into the legal system.
In conclusion, kids need boundaries, fiestas need medals, and we all need a little Paris in our lives (apparently, it's not as pricey as one would think!). As we usher out Judge Boyd from this enlightening episode, we're left with a gentle reminder: life's about the choices we make, the umbrellas we forget, and the wisdom to know when to grab a cup of water or a fancy straw.
