Just Average
Here on Just Average, I talk about career, being a parent, an amateur athlete and caring for ones self through sport, friends, and relationships.
My name is Lydia Holmes. I’m a mother, a driven and successful professional. I’m a fiancé and a wannabe athlete. I love food, friends, outdoor sports, and I’m here to talk about how we have it all. Not in a fluffy “wouldn’t that be cool but that’s not realistic” kind of way. But truly creating balance and happiness at the same time and in REAL ways. I talk to people, like you and me, to find out how they do it. Just Average, regular, every day Joe's and Jane’s making it happen!
