Today’s post is a little different but extra special because it features my long-time friend from Atlanta, Georgia, Sharmin Lakhani. Having known her for quite some time, I already knew she was an amazing daughter, friend and teacher. It turns out, she also happens to be an extremely talented writer, and loving wife and mother. She has recently taken the plunge into the world of blogging and decided to share her story of discovering her passion and making some serious changes to pursue a different lifestyle.

Many of us seem to have busy and chaotic lifestyles in which it can be easy to lose sight of what truly matters to us. In her blog, Sharmin speaks of her challenges during the transition from a full-time career woman to a full-time stay-at-home Mom- a brave and beautiful decision to make in today’s pressure-filled society. I know from personal experience the courage it takes to bare your blog to the world, but I also know the relief that follows when people show their support- so check out her site at simplyblessedmama.com to follow her journey and get inspired!
