Learn about how we try to balance all aspects of our lives.
Hello, We Are Perfecting The Balance
We want you to get to know us, here on our blog, Instagram, and Pinterest - we want to share with you what we like, what we don't; our favorite recipes, Bible verses, workouts, hair products, Birchbox finds, things about our kids, teaching tips, travel recommendations, finance advice, and favorite tips from every other corner of our lives.
Here at Perfecting the Balance (PTB), we each travel different life paths- but we all have things in common and we think you will have some in common with us too, so we want to share! We are moms, wives, girlfriends, widows, teachers, 9-5 workers, dog parents, fitness freaks, autoimmune disease fighters, foodies, Jesus lovers, clean eaters, gardeners, cosmetologists, stylists, party planners, students, penny pinchers, and much more.
