As I type this, we’re just hours away from another bout of snowfall here in the Tri-State area. I’m currently pulling an all-nighter and I have about 3 hours until I have to drop my little one off to school then head into the city for a series of client meetings, photoshoots and interviews. I’ll be lucky if I have a chance to breathe, let alone eat, during that aggressive timeframe. For a mompreneur like myself, life doesn’t stop when you’re not feeling well. I have absolutely NO time for sick days, even though the scenario mentioned above is a breeding ground for sickness.

One of the tips I can give you about living the #NoSickDays lifestyle is that hydration makes a big difference in your overall health. I may be up at 4AM but I do have a bottle of water by my side – that’s a non-negotiable. Drinking water daily is one small hack that has kept many a sick day at bay. When the coughs and sneezes and impending fever starts to set in, I take DayQuil. You can prevent it all day but sometimes it happens. Check out my video below for a quick glimpse into my busy day and how I incorporate water into my daily regimen:
