    #MondayMantra Ready!

    May 15, 2017 - By 

    Today’s mantra is a positive affirmation and powerful reminder that we are ready for the next experience, the next adventure, the next lesson, the next step, whenever it is presented to us.  Even when we feel unprepared. Even when we feel nervous. Even when we feel afraid. Why? Because even when we “fail” at that next whatever, we are still learning, still growing, still awakening to the discovery of who we are and the strength within. That is where the healing happens. That is what we are ready for! Mantra: Yes, I am Ready for This!

    You may or may not be a Mother. (Hint: Giving birth is not the only qualification.) You may or may not always have a positive relationship with the woman, or women, who play/played the role of Mother in your own life. (Hint: Humans are notoriously flawed and complex beings.) You may be missing your Mom, or celebrating your Mom, or avoiding your Mom. You may be desperately wishing you were someone’s Mom, or wishing for just a moment that you weren’t. You may be wishing you were better equipped, better prepared, better suited, just better at this Mom thing. I know…

    #FridayFeels New!

    May 12, 2017 - By 

    I love the energy shift in the first few days following a full moon. It’s as though there’s a collective release of negative thoughts and emotions and after getting a big hug from the universe, it is easier to set your sights on the possibilities ahead.  Set your intentions now for what you want to create, open up to, or reveal in the weeks to come, and get ready to embrace the start of something new!

    #FridayFeels Majestic Journey

    May 5, 2017 - By 

    It’s Friday, and I’m in Norway. (Norway! I am still giddy saying that.) I’ve been able to travel around the world, always awestruck by the incredible sights and natural wonders. This tour of the fjords, though- I haven’t been able to wrap my head around how utterly, stunningly beautiful it is.  As we were sailing into Geiranger yesterday flanked by mile high granite cliffs topped with snow and accented by 5000 ft waterfalls, I was completely overcome with emotion and drops of pure gratitude fell from my eyes in the stillness of the great fjord. This place is what the…

    Mindset Shifts and Deep Healing

    May 3, 2017 - By 

    Being a mindset coach can seem like a frivolous and fluffy profession; a joke, a sham, a hoax. Kind of like when I tell people that I’m a writer and they respond incredulously with, “You can make a living doing that?” After the stinging slap to my face has dissipated, I smile and say as sweetly as I can muster, “Yes, and I am grateful for the opportunity to use my gifts in this way.” But it isn’t easy. The lessons I am learning about myself and the battles I continue to face in struggling with my own inner critic,…

    #FridayFeels Explore & Expand!

    April 28, 2017 - By 

    Bags packed, checked in, cleared security, and got a front row seat to watch our ride pull in to the gate. Traveling the world has been a lifelong passion of mine, and I drink up each and every experience. I love it! There is always another place to explore, a new horizon to expand.  Today I’m setting off for a new adventure- Norway! Whaaaat?! Live the Life You Love! Explore & Expand, Embrace & Enrich… DO the things that excite you, that fulfill you, that scare you, that challenge you.  Oh, and about that Big, Scary Dream that you are…

    Stretch Yourself

    April 26, 2017 - By 

    Stretch Yourself! Stretch the muscles in your body; Stretch the limits of your imagination; Yes Love, S t r e t c h   Y o u r s e l f, and see how far you can grow. Reach a little farther if you can. Stretch the boundaries of all that you think is possible for you to achieve, and in so stretching you will elevate yourself out of your small space of comfort, where you can harness your furthest goals and ride your wildest dreams!

    #MondayMantra Seek the Best

    April 24, 2017 - By 

    Even as I write this, I am dealing with a personal situation that is seriously trying my patience and causing me to question the motives of the other parties involved. It is disappointing and disheartening, but I will still hold on to hope because I believe it is a misunderstanding. I will still offer space for the people involved to make things right- because in so doing, it allows them to rise to the occasion.  Hoping and activating for the best outcome also keeps me from becoming bitter and cynical. However this one plays out, it is teaching me to…
