Seasoned Not Salty

About Seasoned Not Salty

Two educators. Two Moms. Two wives. Two bosses. We are two women reuniting at the intersection of growth, fully seasoned by life, but never salty! We’ve each been through it (haven’t we all?), and while our journeys are different, we won't let each other go at life alone. From teacher besties to IRL besties, we talk love and loss, growth and grit, savvy and sassy… always honest, always real. People often tell us our authenticity is refreshing, so we’re bringing our once private conversations to the masses. Life may season you… But you don’t have to let it make you salty!
