Do you ever feel like you are speaking yet not really being heard? We compete with so many things in our everyday lives. Technology, busy schedules, lots of multi-tasking to name a few! As it becomes harder to be heard and to engage in viable “audible and spoken” conversations with others it also becomes harder to authentically connect to our own inner voices. Having an honest conversation means being vulnerable. It entails letting down our guard just long enough to listen to

It’s almost Halloween! Time to dress up and masquerade as whomever we like! Rooted in ancient Celtic traditions, Halloween celebrated the end of the harvest as well as the belief that the spirits of the dead were being released into the living world. In order to protect themselves from harm the Celtics wore masks and costumes on All Hallows Eve to scare away the evil spirits and prevent demons from identifying them. They gave out treats as offerings so that these same spirit

“Life is short. Break the rules. Forgive quickly. Kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably and never regret anything that makes you smile.”—Mark Twain As children we are taught that breaking a window is haphazard, careless and costly and therefore is not something we should do. We are also taught to be mindful and careful of property, after all we would not want to be cut by the shards of glass from that broken window. We are also mindful of the 7 years of bad luck that

I honor all of you with 4 “love letters” for your continued success. We each measure and manifest success in different ways. The definition may be different, but the process is the same. From my heart to yours… L: Longest Love Affair The longest love affair that you will have in your lifetime will not be with your spouse, or your parent, or your daughter, or your best friend. The longest love affair you will ever have will be with yourself! To make sure that you are honoring

Have you ever gotten so caught up in someone else’s life events that you skipped out on your own? The magic of social media is a great catalyst to bringing everyone else’s story into our lives, and often this is a hard stop to our own personal growth. So captivated are we by the details of others that it can become easy to get side-tracked on showing up in our own lives and in our own successes. Comparison is not a friend to personal accomplishments. A new client came to me

Success is the cause behind a life well lived, not the result! Essentially, you get to choose and direct the achievements of your life so that they curate the legacy that you desire. Living your legacy is possible when you use the energy of the current moment as a catalyst for mindfully designing and harnessing accomplishments. One great trick to being able to do just that is to imagine that you are dating and flirting with your business and your life! Flirting with success i

Do you have an “IT?” I am sure you do. You may even have several. “IT” is typically the goals or dreams that most resonate with you right now. The ONE. The thing that if you could just grab hold of it, things would really shift and fall into place for you. You know what “IT” is and yet every time you get up close and personal with “IT” it seems to vanish or move just a bit further away. Sometimes you may even wonder if “IT” is even a reality…maybe it is just a bucket list ite

If you are called Mommy by anyone, congratulations…you are in the “club!” With your membership you get unconditional love and a life enriched beyond your imagination, but you also get the opportunity to be so focused on taking care of your children, your husband, your home and your job that you may seldom have time for the care and feeding of yourself. Even if you are not a Mom, more than likely you have been in situations, perhaps for years where you are in autopilot. Doing

Game changer right? There are multiple ways to get the same results that a spa visit offers without the spa. Alternative paths to the spa experience are available in your everyday life. While I am a big supporter of the actual spa experience, indulging everyday would not be something any o

We all know that breaking up is hard to do, especially if we are walking away from our relationship with ourselves! Wait…What? Yes, you read this correctly. Breaking up with who we know ourselves to be should be mandatory at least once a decade, maybe even more often! While I am not suggesting divorcing oneself, I am all in favor of a mini break from our minds, just enough of a journey to reconnect us to that which may now be important. That way, when we do get back together

I’m a Mom. I’m every Mom. We might not have the same circumstances, titles, roles, and lives, but we are all Moms. We all want the same things for our children. And although my day might be a little different than my friend up the street, we all can find extraordinary moments in our ordinary everyday lives. All we have to do is look. And when we get a chance to see it, it all becomes so clear. When “A Day in the Life,” came to fruition, I was hesitant to allow someone t
