You probably can't remember the very first thing you learned to do when you were born, but I'm willing to bet it was this!

During the first couple decades of your life you learned to do everything from how to feed yourself, walk unassisted, and use a toilet, to stay home alone, drive unsupervised, and, eventually, move out on your own - Independent.

Not only is independence a life goal, applauded and admired, but it can also be a repellant - for abundance.

Stay with me. I’ll explain.

… still here?!

Like REALLY here? in this very moment?

There’s a lot of talk about ‘being present’, but what’s it all about?

Could you be at your worst & don’t even know it?

You may be thinking..

Hey.. I’ve survived so far. It’s not that bad..
I can probably keep pushing through.
I don’t want anyone to know I’m struggling.
People will judge me & think I’m not capable/strong or have my shit together.

BUT WAIT!!!
Stop. Right. There.
This is SO SUPER IMPORTANT.
You may be in survival mode & don’t even know it.

The #1 thing you need to do is find out if you are.

Do this with me. Please. It just takes a few minutes & could CHANGE YOUR LIFE.

When you go through life looking for silver linings and your personal superpower is positivity, not everyone appreciates it. At least that’s what I’ve found. Some people even get downright pissy about it.

Have you ever been accused of being uninformed, unrealistic and naïve? How did that make you feel? Like an idiot? Did you dial back the warm sunshine of your personality and let some shady clouds of doubt cover your light? Here’s some tips

You are more like a river than you may have considered.. and there is much wisdom for you in those waters too..

Similar to people, rivers can be shallow or deep, clear or dark, refreshing or dangerous, calm or raging. Often what lies beneath the surface is unknown - until you start exploring – and, more often than not, what you discover can be shocking, even within yourself. What kind of rivers (internal and external) are impacting your life right now?

Does January bring you down? Every. Damn. Year?

Everyone is talking about resolutions & goals, but you’re feeling like a colossal failure just thinking of how last year went.
You didn’t accomplish what you wanted to. You gained weight, wasted money & time, drank too much, (insert all the failures you’re beating yourself up about).

You feel pressured to declare your resolutions, but already know you’ll break most of them .. again..

So what does this have to do with vampires?

Listen up! Your future self is reaching back to kick your ass into gear. Get it together woman! Grab those dreams by the tail. You are not going to disappoint her. You are not going to look back with any more regrets. The choices are yours to make.

So, how the hell are you supposed to figure out which is the right path?

I am not just over here manifesting unicorns and glittery rainbows.. every so often, I've got some shitty situations that really harsh my mellow. Just because I'm a mindset coach that encourages and guides my clients to choose a positive, optimistic response to whatever crosses their path, doesn't mean I'm immune to crappy deals and letting someone flip my switch .. like when I’m reeling from a bitch attack and need to figure out some serious boundaries..

There I was, stuck in perfection paralysis, spinning in circles, chasing so many passions, with no idea which path would lead to ‘my purpose’.

There was so much I wanted to share with the world! But which one(s) and how? Here are my 3 secret weapons for getting shit done..

We were still enjoying the last days of a beautiful summer, with most of our freedoms returned to pre-pandemic standards, when yet another wave hit us broadside…

You would expect that having been through this before, we would have been better prepared to face it again, to resign to the inevitable course needed for this thing to run itself out, but

🙋‍♀️ Where are my Over-Givers & People-Pleasers?

How exhausted are you? 🥱

Frustrated?

Resentful?

Does your to-do list keep getting longer & your days shorter?

Are you trying to be everything for everybody & not drop any balls?

Does the thought of taking some ‘me time’ fill you with guilt?

Well, I’m happy to tell you that there is a better way.

There is a place to escape!

Has THIS ever happened to YOU?!…

Where were you when you got your first period?

We remember getting our first period as vividly as our first kiss or the birth of our first baby.

If you were fortunate enough to have been prepared, it probably wasn’t too traumatic.

Women have managed this spontaneous cyclical physical programming since the dawn of time. Some feel it’s a blessing, most, a curse.

Is our culture to blame?

Here’s how:

July 7, 2021 was Global Forgiveness Day.

Yes, Forgiveness… that enigmatic concept of letting something go that has hurt you. Some words, or action, or omission, by another person, intentional, or not.

Forgiveness… for most of us, is a really, really, tough pill to swallow..

I had a huge aha moment recently about forgiveness.

✨ Have you heard of them?

✨ Have you tried them?

✨ Have you experienced positive results? but..

✨ Are still skeptical of their effectiveness? or..

June roses, wild & free, resilient, beautiful, with their delicate sweet fragrance, always take me back home, to the hills where I was raised and to memories of my father's strong, scarred, hard-working hands, presenting a freshly-picked bundle from the bushes in our pasture, where they faithfully bloomed every year, in time for my birthday.

So much of this memory parallels life…

I used to identify as Christian.

But now, I believe there is so much more than what that concept and practice could hold.

So much more than we have ever tapped into.

More that is abundantly available and accessible.

To ANYONE and EVERYONE!

There is a strong spiritual movement that has been picking up speed in the last few years.

What used to be thought of as pretty woo-woo, is now mainstream.
