Hello!

Hello!

I'm Mika, a wife, mother to 3, entrepreneur, and co-host of the podcast Good To Be Home. My hope is to help and encourage all the #girlbosses and #mombosses out there with inspiration for your home and lifestyle.

    Instagram post 2189367655924581855_212427744 Hello December - and goodbye! 👋🏼 I am going to be signing off of Instagram for the rest of the year 💕 Why?
•
Because you’ve seen enough gift guides I’m sure 😂, you don’t need to see my holiday decor, time is precious, Christmas is my favorite, and I want to turn my attention inward instead of outward as I recalibrate how I spend my time as we go into the new year. When time feels like it’s flying by, that means we’re skimming the surface and not really present in it. So I’m “gifting” myself and my family my presence this Christmas. It often just takes small actions to make a big difference in our lives 🎁
•
The Good To Be Home weekly podcast will still be going strong, my monthly “favorites” and “organizing tip” emails will still go out, and I’ll still be fully active over in my online group for the organizing course members. So if you’re subscribed to any of the above, we’ll still be connected over there 😉
•
As I thought of what to say in this post, the verses of “Silent Night” kept coming to mind. I am wishing you all a calm and bright holiday season this year 🌟
•
Thank YOU for all the love and friendship this year. Merry Christmas, and see you in 2020! 🎄🎊
•
Love, Mika #petitejoys #december #goodtobehome

•
I’ll also be sharing some good shopping deals on stories throughout the weekend, too (like our coffee maker.) I love Black Friday! 💚 #fridayfeeling
    Instagram post 2186602123102216450_212427744 Today’s gift guide is up and I saved the best for last : SMALL BUSINESSES 💚 Specifically, women-owned shops that I personally can vouch for. In a world of Amazon Prime shipping and massive Black Friday sales that are happening even before Thanksgiving 🙃 it’s easy to be pulled by a good, quick deal and forget the value, the quality, the heart that is available for us from the smaller shops that have some pretty awesome products.
•
I selected a handful of my favorites for you today, and encourage you to shop small for maybe not all of your gifting but at the very least a few items on your holiday gift list this year. I know your loved ones will appreciate these items, just as I have.

    Instagram post 2185073902636429612_212427744 Oh hi guys. It’s me, Paige. Do you ever feel like you’re stuck in a rut? Do you find it hard to stay motivated??
•
Well, I don’t. I’m a kid and my life is fabulous 🤣💯
•
But maybe you do! Adulting looks so hard, guys. Ugh. I feel for you, I really do. 😭
•
So today on my mom and dad’s super cool podcast, Good To Be Home, they are talking about how to get out of a RUT, beat life’s STRESSORS, and stay MOTIVATED.
•
I don’t really know what self improvement is but I think whatever helps makes you happier and less stressed out is a good thing. It’s important to have some helpful strategies and tools in your life’s toolkit, right?
•
Whoa. What did I just say? “Life’s toolkit??” I think this podcast is rubbing off on me.
•
Click “the link in bio” to listen to the episode, my mom is saying. So do that.

K bye! 👋🏼 xo #goodtobehomepodcast #mondaymotivation
    Instagram post 2183565160082064523_212427744 Good morning! Today’s gift guide is all about budget-friendly finds 💁🏻‍♀️
.
Not everything that looks expensive actually is expensive, and I’m all about that high-low mix and a good Amazon find 😉 Here are my top picks for tried-and-true items that will help you gift beautifully but stay within budget. We’re talking plush throw blankets, an amazing PJ set, this pink cookbook, silk pillowcases, my favorite makeup tool, even kids boots, and more!

    Instagram post 2183040122610299998_212427744 Today’s gift guide is all about TEENS!
.
Not sure what the kids are into these days? Don’t worry, me either 🤣. So I went straight to the source for this one…my stepdaughter Maddix.
•
This turned out to be my favorite gift guide this year because it came from conversations she and I had in the car as we drove around these past few weeks, and I really enjoyed that time with her asking for advice.
•
Maddix is on social media now (I don’t tag her, just for privacy) but I know she’ll see this so I want to publicly say : Maddix, you are an amazing human being and I love you so, so much. I can’t believe you are a teen because to me, you are still the little 2 year old scooting down the stairs calling me “Pika.” I’m really proud of who you are ❤️

    Instagram post 2182283994784060797_212427744 And now, heading over to my side of the closet today which was part of the inspiration for today's Holiday Gift Guide: for HER!
.
You might recognize some of these picks, because I wouldn't suggest anything that I don't absolutely love (or really want) for myself! I pulled items from my closet, bathroom, and even the kitchen to create a list of my top favorite things from this year and beyond.
.
Whether it's for your mom, wife, sister, daughter, or yourself (no judgement here 😉) this gift guide is for all the special ladies in your life. Ps most of these items are free shipping, too ! 📦

    Instagram post 2181564872966026133_212427744 When I started doing gift guides on the blog 3 years ago, I started with just one : a hostess gift guide. I was taught (especially being raised in the Japanese culture) to never arrive to a home empty handed, so this is a guide that is inspired by that belief (thanks, Mom 😉)
•
The holidays mean extra invites and events, so I like to stock up on a few favorite items each year to be prepared. That way I’m not scrambling last minute and I don’t have to think of something every time. Organization is about preparation, after all! ✔️

    Instagram post 2180851894167872866_212427744 On the blog - my gift guide for HIM 👔 This post actually turned out to be more than just a gift guide but also a little peek into @russperry and my marriage, what we’ve given each other as gifts over the last few years, and how we use these in our day-to-day. You can find 14 classic items that will fit any guys’ taste. Link in bio! 🖤 #giftguide #menstyleguide
    Instagram post 2179956589352292587_212427744 It’s Monday! And I am excited 🎉because :
•
ON THE PODCAST - you know my prayer journal from @valmariepaper that I just love, love, love? Today I have the creator, @valwoerner, on the podcast! I have wanted to interview Val for a while because I love finding out about the backstories of businesses. But I knew our conversation would be so much more than that. Listen in as we discuss the problem with perfection, the world’s “lies” about motherhood, how to be a less “grumpy” mom, and more. BONUS : we’re giving away a 2020 Prayer Journal! Listen to the podcast for entry details ✨

GIFT GUIDE WEEK - starts now! Each day this week I’m putting up a new gift guide on the blog. Today we’re kicking it off with what to get the KIDS 🎁

    Instagram post 2178484460043723279_212427744 Happy Weekend from the Perry girls! 💛🎀#goodtobehome
    Instagram post 2177849419056014077_212427744 Yesterday I sent out an email to my subscribers all about how to use Post-Its 📝 for holiday organization - including planning out traditions and activities, family brainstorming, how I use them to plan the following year, and even setting the table for Christmas dinner! 🎄
•
The week before that, I sent an email with additional sherpa zip-up finds, my Trader Joe’s must-haves, and a rare sale on an item I make sure to stock up during the holidays ✔️
•
I send one “Organizing Tip of the Month” email and one “Faves and Finds” email every month to all the ladies (and a few gentlemen!) in my community. That’s two simple emails with ideas, finds, and tips I purposefully keep off of social and the podcast so that I can save them for my emails 😉

    Instagram post 2177225490724961095_212427744 I always knew I wanted to be a mom, but had NO idea how much love I had to give until I gained each of these sweet girls as a daughter 💕
•
They’ll always have a piece of my heart- figuratively and literally. And now they have a little reminder of that 😉
•
These @itsgldn necklaces are soft, delicate and charming just like my girls! I love that I can personalize each necklace, right down to the chain length. (Paige has the 16” and the rest of us have the 18”, and my cross one is a 20”. My shorter necklace has all three of their initials. )These also make a beautiful and thoughtful gift to tell someone special in your life how much you care.

    Instagram post 2175806538531045353_212427744 On this week’s episode of the Good To Be Home podcast, @russperry and I are sharing what we would tell our 20yr old selves if we could go back and give ourselves advice ❤️
•
This was the decade we graduated college, got jobs, got married, had kids (including one daughter while in college, for Russ) got entangled in bad habits, and sure as heck learned a lot. It’s a fun but very open and reflective episode 💫
•
Hindsight is 20/20, so who knows what we’ll go through and learn in the years and decades to come - and what kind of reflecting we’ll do in the future. For now, I’m grateful for all that happened in our 20s, the good and the bad, the insecurities and overwhelm, because it’s planted us right where we are today🙏🏼
•
Oh, also if you’re curious we share our ages in the episode (if you don’t already know. I’m older than Russ 😉)
