Do you get angry when people say certain things and lash out? Do you feel frustrated when things don’t go your way? Do you dwell on the negative emotions and struggle to find a way out?

I spoke with a young lady this week who has a habit of letting her emotions get in the way and who struggles with...

Last week I talked about determination being one of the 3 Ds to success. Today, I want to talk about discipline. Having discipline means working when you don't feel like it, doing the hard things you know will move the needle and acting not with your desire for immediate gratification in mind, but t...

Self-Care has never been more important than since the onset of COVID. In March of 2020, COVID started sweeping through the US and we found ourselves in a new, surreal world. Most of us working from home, many having to juggle homeschooling and work. The days got longer and longer, with people worki...

I never saw myself as a courageous person, but as I began writing this blog, I started reflecting on some of the things I’ve done over the course of the last few years and realized that I AM courageous. Funny enough, I seem to be more courageous in doing big things than little things. Some of the bi...

Self-confidence doesn’t always come easy, especially in this day and age. Trolls are everywhere and we are constantly bombarded with messages that tear down our self-esteem and tell us we're not good enough. But the truth of the matter is you are enough! You just need some more practice believing in...

Do you remember playing Blind Man’s Bluff when you were a kid? If not, let me refresh your memory. It’s a variation of Tag, where the person who is “It” is blindfolded and must find other players around the room...

“A man is but the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes” - Mahatma Gandhi

If thoughts create feelings, feelings drive behaviors, and behaviors determine outcomes then, isn't it time to pay attention to your thoughts? We have thoughts all the time; thoughts that we are aware of and tho...

They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but I disagree.

I moved to America in the mid 80’s after leaving a warm, Latin cultural background. This was in stark contrast to the more distant, Anglo-Saxon culture of boundaries and personal space and I felt lost, like I didn’t belong. Coming fro...

When I first struck out on my own, I found myself doing a lot to make sure my business would be successful. Over the course of the last month, I have been paying closer attention to the things that I do and came to a surprising realization. I’ve been busy, but I haven’t always been productive.

Last week, I shared 5 ways to manage our physical energy. Those were:

1. Getting 7-9 hours of sleep
2. Eating foods that are good for your body and your brain
3. Finding a workout that works for you and moving your butt!
4. Drinking 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water per day
5. Having a solid morning r

Do you have big dreams? Do you also have days when you feel tired because of a lack of sleep, or is your body just worn out from the day to day rigors and stresses that life throws at you? It can be hard to reach and maintain the levels of energy we need to make our dreams happen, or simply to get t...

It's hard for many women to think of progress in terms other than perfection. We're constantly striving for the perfect life: perfect body, perfect job, perfect kids. We’re told that we need to be the best, and if we don't measure up, we're worthless. This mentality has been drilled into us for cent...
