We had a constant buzz about the Dodgers and Mookie Betts “robbing” balls. The boys both became obsessed super fans sporting their matching hats and jerseys daily. Their appetites for learning about teams, the players and the rules were insatiable. Again, especially Dominic as he tends to become consumed with whatever he’s currently passionate about. He has used his technical mind to learn everything there is about every baseball pitch possible and he proceeds to explain them to us repeatedly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1631306134393-ZL6Y7ZLIWA5R2X43O33M/get_body+%281%29.jpg Blog - Curveballs - Part 1 - I should have known this baseball theme was foretelling the major curveball life was about to hand us. https://www.oxygenfirst.com/blog/curveballs-part-2-the-dark-tunnel monthly 0.5 2022-04-08 https://www.oxygenfirst.com/blog/sleep-ritual monthly 0.5 2022-09-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/388242d7-aab7-4073-8c84-ea6a4c66251f/IMG_6345.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662227293985-5TXFIQ3EK5F694X7MIC4/71opwC7aqaS._AC_SL1500_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662149421102-H0VNY4FA9D3EMHI713XB/71CNPsPPU7L._AC_SL1500_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662149318812-BTFINHL0TBBB0IDL22MW/813Cvu3dggL._AC_SL1500_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662227312212-9DP67MRRJEHSZ96UJVLT/61N7ssVZ6hL._AC_SL1189_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662227115160-0EU0KFC1G4PHAAQJFE5B/41Bt7xxXayL._SL1200_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662149318126-F810SJRZFGZZO4493833/710IoQTdJML._SX679_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662149317566-KTZDC8YZNF7O18N4H4DL/61ICfAgKBSL._AC_SL1500_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1662149317609-Z73AMTUCBOJBLUTN5MVK/817KaW3QVTL._AC_SL1500_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/dba91eac-77ff-4f88-a384-fde04da9ddd4/IMG_2389.JPG Blog - Sleep Ritual - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/bb731b7a-e482-40a6-aeb8-c3eab074a37a/515xKThki6S._AC_SL1500_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/b7d71611-fe48-4271-88e5-a492d195ba54/413cAh3xCfL._SX329_BO1%2C204%2C203%2C200_.jpg Blog - Sleep Ritual - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.oxygenfirst.com/blog/giving-up-nightshades-for-now monthly 0.5 2022-09-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/7bdf4615-95a4-4a2a-8c9d-9c3f8b5cb8b9/29551+%281%29.jpg Blog - Giving up Nightshades - For Now - Make it stand out Steak with fresh (& delish) vegetables https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/6f17d402-d99c-4dad-bef2-92ffa5ccc0fc/43376.jpg Blog - Giving up Nightshades - For Now - Make it stand out Gluten free toast with almond butter, strawberries, and cinnamon.

Do you feel like motherhood is a survival skill? Guess what? It’s not! It’s a THRIVING skill! And I can help you learn how. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1594825921626-DGUJSC7YFYO0JSON182P/Dotsample.jpg Home - Hi, I’m Dot! And I’m the mom behind Oxygen First. I believe that in order to be the best version of ourselves that we must put on our oxygen masks first. We must take care of our bodies, our desires and our dreams FIRST, not last as society tells us to do. Being a mom, a partner, and a person should not mean sacrificing who you are. That is backwards thinking and I am here to help shift that belief. When we truly step into our desires and take care of ourselves, first, that’s where the magic lies. Our joy creates a ripple effect that bleeds into the lives of everyone around us - our kids, our pets, our families, our friends and our coworkers! I am here to share my tips and tricks of how I put on my oxygen mask first. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f0bc27556da8257b114f4ff/1604424681746-BV9D05GZ1O3VV37H11JJ/OCaWz57qQjuopFR%2B56rmog_thumb_711f.jpg Home 1.

I’m Dot. Hi and welcome! My name is Dot and I am the mom behind Oxygen First. My journey to becoming a mom and truly stepping into my role was a challenging one. I am here to share my truths, my path, my wins and my losses, recipes, and to simply share the tips and tricks that have worked for me… and even the ones that have epically failed. I feel like I was born to write and to share my journey with you; I have no idea where this will go, but I do know with great conviction that writing and connecting set my soul on fire. Who am I? I am a mom and entrepreneur that is fueled by adventure, curiosity, CrossFit and LOVE. I started this journey as a solo parent working on healing my body, my heart and my mind. I wanted to create a magical, safe haven of a world for me and my son where we could learn to live a life filled with joy and adventures. Like most of us, I am actively and daily healing from trauma and learning to unapologetically live by my convictions, my passions and desires, and to STOP hustling. I am learning to put my own oxygen mask on first. I am learning to allow myself to follow my instincts and to ask for support. I have recently left the corporate world of hustle and I am running a consulting practice from home that I am passionate about - Dot Rock Consulting https://www.dotrockconsulting.com/. I help small businesses and solopreneurs implement and streamline their HR, Accounting and Operations systems so that they can scale and return to the passion of their business. I LOVE it and these days I can be seen picking my son, and my bonus son, up from school and I am truly present. It is a dream come true. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847318774-JS502KT9XE3KPJHQQ6E3/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847318080-B9F72DEHK9FXZN08KRIP/Large%2BJPG-20140228_Trade%2B151_0046.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847317621-5SEXVL3M0LSMZVYRL6PC/Large%2BJPG-Aro%2BHa_0428.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847317308-TDOFWH9YJEOMMRVEO7D9/Large%2BJPG-Aro%2BHa_0010.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847316926-7EAMTNMIVN6J7Y8IJQEJ/Large%2BJPG-Aro%2BHa_0393.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847316328-ZCDAOUA1PY1R3CA7PD1K/Large%2BJPG-Aro%2BHa_0380.jpg About https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847315857-HXSHJG4PKSDRYVEJLCHD/Large%2BJPG-Aro%2BHa_0387.jpg About https://www.oxygenfirst.com/privacypolicy daily 0.75 2021-04-17 https://www.oxygenfirst.com/termsandconditions daily 0.75 2021-04-17 https://www.oxygenfirst.com/disclaimer daily 0.75 2021-04-17 https://www.oxygenfirst.com/book-club daily 0.75 2021-05-29 https://www.oxygenfirst.com/favorite-things daily 0.75 2021-05-29
