When asked to describe themselves, most women immediately rattle off their roles and who they are to other people - mom, wife, daughter, sister, job title. Followed by their accomplishments: degrees, businesses, certifications. We are so much more than that. Favorite quote: “Who were you before the world told you who you should be?” -Charles Bukowski
I am: adventure, free, wild, spirited, heart,
light, philanthropic, potential, awaken, truth, stubborn, naive, gullible, selfish. My main rolls are wife and mom of 3 teens (so difficult!). I love my husband with my whole heart. My kids… well, it depends on the day. We are a blended family, so that’s added strife. I have an incredible group of friends. I couldn’t do life without them. We meet weekly for a bible/book/wine study. Gosh I love these girls. The accomplishment I am most proud of is founding a 501(c)3 nonprofit rescuing abused, neglected, and unwanted farm animals. So many people search their entire lives for their purpose. I have never questioned mine. It is saving animals. Sadly, the pandemic hit us hard and we were forced to restructure. This left me heartbroken and searching for my next endeavor. I guess I have an entrepreneurial spirit. Enter CFC…
When I was forced to close our 10 acre, 38 stall facility, I brought my chickens to our little one-acre piece of land. Behind our back garage is a heavily wooded treeline. My husband cleared some of this and converted a shed into a chicken coop. There is a little creek running through the chicken yard. Hence the name Chicken Feet Creek. My life coach/mentor is big on goals. Write them down and you are 300% more likely to achieve them. Since 2019, I have been using her system to discover and organize my goals. Each year since then, you will see “Get in touch with my “witchy” self” written in. In the beginning of 2022, I wrote “herbs before pharmaceuticals.” This is a story in itself. Save for another time. And thus, Chicken Feet Creek was born. All my offerings are hand-made in small batches. Ingredients are organic and grown by me as much as I can. All are non-toxic, pronounceable, and natural. Oils are infused for a minimum of 6 weeks. Products are tested by family and friends first. If essential oils are used, they are high quality. You can be confident about what you are putting on your body and in your home. Oh, my name is Megan. I got so carried away sharing myself I forgot to share my name!
“Your diet is not only what you ear. It’s what you watch, what you listen to, what you read, the people you hang around… Be mindful of the things you put into your body emotionally, spiritually, and physically.” -I’m not sure who to credit here. I would like to add energetically, though.
Creators pour their energy and intentions into their creations. Don’t you want to know a little about them? I feel many women struggle with who they are.
