Remember that Secret Lives episode where they brought their kids to a salt room? I had to see it for myself! Salt therapy helps clear congestion and support overall wellness—you can literally see it working. 🧂 It may sound gross with little ones and runny noses, but each family gets the room to themselves, and UV lights fully sanitize between sessions. Plus, there’s a room full of toys to make it extra fun! taken in The Salt Room-Coral Springs by @thesoflamom

20,000 of you. 🥹❤️ Three years ago, I made my very first post introducing myself as a Fort Lauderdale mom who loved sharing great food, fun places, and family adventures. I had absolutely no idea what this little page would become. What started as a fun passion project has grown into something that has brought me so much joy, so many incredible opportunities, and a community of 20,000 people who choose to follow along. You’ve watched our family grow, welcomed Brady into our adventures, followed me through motherhood and life as a NICU doctor, and trusted me with your date nights, family outings, and restaurant recommendations. And somewhere along the way, this little hobby became a business and something I am incredibly proud to call my own. To everyone who has followed, shared a reel, recommended my page to a friend, visited somewhere because of me, or simply cheered me on along the way — THANK YOU. 20K was always one of those big, faraway goals I dreamed of reaching. And last night, we made it. Here’s to dreaming big, starting small, and never knowing where a little idea might take you. ❤️ Love, Erica taken in Fort Lauderdale, Florida by @thesoflamom
