Fearless Friday!

YOU DON’T NEED TO BE PERFECT TO BE POWERFUL!!! Perfectionism is not proof of high standards. It’s a disguise for FEAR.

It whispers that “maybe later” is saferContinue reading “Fearless Friday!”

Wisdom Wednesday

We’re all carrying stories we didn’t write and that aren’t true. “People won’t like me if we show my true self.” “I’m not very creative.” “I can’t do __ anymore because I’m over 50.” “I shouldn’t want more.

Yes, Your Mother Told You to Stand Straight For A Reason

One of the best things we can do to feel good about ourselves is pay attention to our posture.

It’s notifyingContinue reading “Yes, Your Mother Told You to Stand Straight For A Reason”

Just like how getting into shape is a process, learning to feel more confident and love ourselves works the same way. I’m not going to lie. I spent about the first 40 years of my life in a state of self-frustration. For lack of better words, I just felt icky in my skin- a lot.Continue reading

CHOOSE BETTER

If we’re not careful, life can start to seem a bit grey. If we are not intentional about the way we look and feel, the environments we hang out and the stimuli we feed our brains, it’s easy to go down the slippery slope of feeling hopeless, sad, even disillusioned. We might find ourselves losingContinue reading “CHOOSE BETTER”

Life is all about taking chances.

Life is all about taking chances. When we take a chance on love, we run the risk of getting our hearts broken. When we set out to try a new business venture, we run the risk of failing. When we set out into uncharted territory, we run the risk of getting lost. But, what isContinue reading “Life is all about taking chances.”
