I may be The Blessings Butterfly and love to share the bright side of things, but even I get scared sometimes. Yesterday I was overwhelmed by a nasty case of fear and self-doubt. My ego was so scared, so intimidated by the BIG goals that I’ve set that it became downright ugly. I felt that old familiar panic rising in my chest, my eyes wide and filled with tears, my speech jumbled and angry and peppered with swear words. Oh, did I forget to mention that I was sitting in a restaurant at dinner with my boyfriend at the time…

Permission Slip – Do What You Gotta Do “Do what you gotta do!” Grammar aside, this simple phrase has taken me through more rough places throughout my life than I care to count. It has been both humbling and empowering; it has seen tears upon tears, and it has felt true grit. Most of all, it has been my permission slip to myself to do whatever I needed to do in each situation whenever I’ve called on it. It has given me permission to be my own superhero and to push through horrible anxiety, depression and quite literally, fear for…

The quickest way I know how to get myself out of negative thinking and raise my vibes to a higher state of Love & Light is to speak in positive affirmations. We believe what we tell ourselves, so let’s make it good! It is the tool I use daily to get back into my sunny, happy place- especially after going through tough emotions that can leave me feeling otherwise drained, or scared, or insecure. Today, I encourage you to pour yourself a big glass of positivity and drink it in! You deserve to feel good!

In a world that seems to be going crazy, now more than ever we need to shine a bright light of hope. Hope for better days. Hope for peaceful resolutions. Hope for justice. Hope for goodness, civility, and understanding to be valued and upheld. With Hope, we can become the Hero that our childhood self needed, and still needs today. With Hope, we can overcome the ugliest evils of hatred, ignorance and apathy by bringing them to light. With Hope, we can rise up in Love and Light and Strength that shines brightly. Remember this: Darkness is only overcome…

I’m choosing today to get myself back into a positive groove, to let go of negativity and fears and focus instead on what I want. Our lives are too precious to waste hiding ourselves away. Don’t settle for existing, LIVE! Follow those dreams! Challenge yourself! Step out boldly! My mantra for today is a reminder of the three things that allow me to succeed and reach my goals. Such an empowering affirmation: I am strong. I am fearless. I am ready for good things.

Can we all please just STOP with the constant killing each other? Bad cops killing citizens, Bad citizens killing cops, and round and round we go. Bad citizens killing innocent citizens in mass shootings. People being profiled & violently targeted for their skin color, religious beliefs or sexual identity. Terrorist militants killing innocent civilians. ENOUGH ALREADY I don’t know all the facts, but I do know this: It’s NOT ok. It has to STOP. Can we please create a space of peace and love for life? Can we build bridges of tolerance and understanding instead of walls of fear? Some…

In this special Liberty Edition (it is Independence Day here in the US) it seems fitting to me to focus once again on gratitude. I am more than grateful, actually. I love my life and I want more & more of it! I want to enjoy and feel and dream, explore and create and love. And the magical thing is this: the happier I am with who I am, the more I truly enjoy where I’m at in life. I’m grateful for where I am and despite any disappointment or pain, I Love My Life!

My water bottle shared great wisdom with me this morning. I am reminded that when we create peace within, we can then live it out and share with those around us. If the troubles around the world are weighing heavily on you, take heart. There is hope. Affirm with me: I won’t be overcome by the doom and gloom. I will create peace in my head and my heart. I will create peace wherever I am. ❤️
