I received a lovely message about spending, and it inspired me to remember this teaching I received from one of my mentors. As we move into the season where lots of “spending” typically occurs, I thought this would be a timely share to inspire YOU as well. When we “spend” it typically feels like we are losing what we spend… We “spend” our money, now it’s gone.We “spend” our time, now it’s gone.We “spend” our ...

It’s too cold to go in my writing studio. I’m hungry. I have other things to do. I’ll do it tomorrow. I’m not sure if I’m feeling inspired enough right now. Resistance. All of the reasons to not pursue my dream, my want, my desire, my soul calling. These reasons, thoughts, chatter… seem to creep in to distract and challenge us as we move in our desired direction. Have you ever wanted something and then find yourself hearing the excuses as to why it’s ...

I might need that, or want that someday. That sentence right there has had me hold on to a lot of stuff. See, I’ve gotten rid of stuff before, then later regretted it. That jacket I never wore? Well, as soon as I donated it, it was suddenly the jacket that would have complimented every outfit. That story, and others like it, have me hanging on to a lot of stuff, just in case of some day… We all have stories that can keep us where we are, doing what we are doing, and holding on to ...

“Wait until the morning.” I heard a quiet voice within me say as I was finishing up an email to send. My reasonable side argued, “That doesn’t give them enough time to plan.” as the email included an invite to a Pop-Up Coaching call. Yet, from experience I knew to honor that quiet voice.  When I thought about pushing through and just sending it to do as one “should” do, it didn’t feel right. When I thought about waiting, a peace ...

Big exciting stuff,and at the same time,big hard stuff.How does one allow the opportunity to unfoldand still sacredly hold their heart?How does one continue to step forwardand deeply pause to be with what is all happening? A moment at a time,honoring the energy.Tapping it when the moment allowsand then sinking into it when it calls.They say life is a dance.Sometimes the music is a melodythat makes you cry,and sometimes it gets you moving,and you clumsily dance to both.The slow songs, the fast ...

You hire a coach. You read a book. You receive feedback. You discover a new tool… All great things! Life is a journey of learning and evolving. The key in it all is to know YOU and stay true to YOU. The question to ask as you apply something new… “Is this amplifying me, or altering me?” You will FEEL the answer. If it amplifies you, it expands you, enhances, enlightens, brightens… If it alters, something feels off, there’s struggle, falseness, ...

Ever feel like you’re living in the movie Groundhog’s Day? Day in, day out… same ‘ol routine. Have you ever tried to make a shift, yet after a little while, find yourself right back where you were? Why does this happen? How can we create the life or business we desire, if we’re not able to get out of our rut? That’s what this week’s episode is about! Dive in here: What action are you committed to consistently taking to create that new neural pathway? ...

Many times we can hold back on taking an action, questioning “What if…?” What if I get it wrong? What if I make a mistake? What if I’m not ready? What if it doesn’t work? What if….. (That’s what today’s episode dives into! Click below to watch.) Do you remember finger paints as a child? The freedom of letting it be messy? The joy of creativity and playing and simply doing what the paints call you to do…. dig your fingers in and put them ...

Why do we like to complicate things? Often we make things seem to be unreachable, difficult, or to require far more effort than they really do. Take writing a book for example. Most times the thought of this makes people feel it will take years and that it requires it to be a big, thick, best-selling novel. I used to think my dream of becoming an author was far off. Therefore, I put it off. I set it on the back burner of dreams for “someday” when I had more time, more focus, was ...

6 years ago today, I attended a Celebrate Your Life event in Chicago and took this picture. It was right before one of the speakers was about to take the stage. See, I felt an inner calling to be a speaker like I was seeing at this event. I had the desire to make an impact by inspiring others from the stage as they were doing. I printed this picture and placed it on my vision board. It’s been there ever since. Just recently I was Divinely guided to the Speakers Program being offered by ...
