Carla Young, terrarenewables.ca Publisher If there’s living proof that women can have it all – and then some – it’s Carla Young. Building her multiple businesses on a virtual work-at-home model, Carla is an inspiration to other mothers who want to start a lifestyle business. During her early days as a mom entrepreneur, Carla made every single mistake in the book (and a few new ones for good measure). Realizing that “doing it all” was unhealthy and unsustainable, Carla started by getting organized to the extreme, developing support systems for both her work and family. After other mothers started asking how they too could enjoy her lifestyle, Carla launched terrarenewables.ca to support moms at work, at home and at play (because every mommy deserves a little me-time)!

Everyday items like building materials, cleaning products, toys, and plastics contribute to indoor air pollution, which can lead to headaches, dizziness, fatigue and itchy eyes, respiratory diseases, and asthma while lack of sunlight can trigger SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), disrupt sleep patterns and negatively affect your mood.

Running isn’t something I do (almost) every day because I love it (because trust me, I don’t). It’s something I do because I know if I stop I will have a hard time starting again and for me, that’s not acceptable. Let me explain. When I was younger, I could take an entire season off of exercise and then just jump back into sports with no trouble at all. And then the 4-0 hit and everything changed (boo-hiss) and suddenly, even taking a week off of activity put me back at square one. With an active daughter and a lot…
