About

Most of us feel like there aren’t enough hours in a day.  We are constantly rushing from one activity to the next, trying to maximize productivity and “get stuff done”.  Sometimes we need to take a step back and occupy our time with things we WANT to do versus things we feel we NEED to do, to focus on reducing stress, having fun, and enjoying life as it presents itself.

Too Busy Livin’ will help you achieve this by teaching you how to be more organized and more prepared in your day-to-day tasks so you can have more free time to do what YOU want, when you want and so that you can wing it without feeling guilty.

Too Busy Livin’ is a one-woman show, written and conceived by me, a working mom of four kids and high-school teacher by day.

Hi! I’m Shawna and I’m passionate about cooking, organization, and the many roles that food play in our everyday lives.

  • to sustain
  • to indulge
  • to develop habits
  • to socialize
  • to explore
  • to take risks
  • to be adventurous
  • to learn new skills
  • to ease awkward situations
  • to relax
  • to entertain
  • to cope

Regardless of the role it plays, we all bond over food in one way or another. That is why Too Busy Livin’ is food with a side of family and functionality.

Guy Fieri once said: “Cooking is all about people. Food is maybe the only universal thing that really has the power to bring everyone together. No matter what culture, everywhere around the world, people get together to eat.”

And I couldn’t agree more!
