The Ali Creative

My name is Ali Thaden…

I often get asked how I have the energy to raise 3 amazing daughters who are just as active as I am, work full time as an appraiser, fly paragliders and hot air balloons, ride motorcycles, mountain bike, ski, backpack, remodel my house, grow plants, indulge in reef keeping, teach art classes, paint fine art… The list is a bit silly, but I love all these things. And, when I run out of energy- it’s a big deal. I work really hard at maintaining optimal energy levels because I like to do all these things, and I’m stubbornly unwilling to give up any of them. Plus, the list of things I still want to do is ridiculously long. So I need to have energy for the long haul. I do a LOT of research, and this blog is about passing on what I learned to you and to my girls. Enjoy creating.energy!
