The effects of being in an industry and a social network that is full in content can be daunting and wrought with disappointment and push back. For anyone in the blogging world, it can be all-consuming to try to set your mark. We live in a space that seems to already have everything. Full to the brim, it can be overwhelming, bleak, and mountainous. However, I believe this is true for many industries now. It seems acquisitions and platforms need to be so big to do anything of

The is a list. Podcasts are all the rage right now. They are the new platform to get a message out. It is also one of the best ways to get inspiration and free therapy. Literally. I love podcasts because they are such a great resource. I listen to many different people and many diffrent ideas but they all have the same befit for me. They make me better. When you can feed your soul and be pumped by others (and for free!) you should do it!! This is none negotiable for those tha

“There’s a billion people on the planet. I mean what does any one life really mean?” – Quote from the movie, Shall We Dance For many of us the struggle and feelings of creating ripples and impact in our world with so many faces and so many things can be haunting and a driving force for why we do the things that we do. It can also create space for incapacitating people from ever even trying. This is where I find many of my clients. The fact that so many of us don’t ever get to

Some people have a Mantra. Other people have many mantra’s and some have never really thought about it. Getting your thoughts down and even up on a prominent wall is helpful for the focus of what you deem successful and important in life. It can change things dramatically! There are many slogans, quotes, and phrases out there. You can take and use them, or change them up to fit your personal definition. I have taken bits and pieces of many to create my own personal thoughts o

As a lifestyle coach and someone who is passionate about positive change I hear about “High Performance” all the time! I use to love this phrase. Now I feel it is over used, watered down, and mis-interrupted. People can be a high performer and still be a bully. They can make massive career moves and success but not care at all about the charity being organized for joe’s family in crisis down the hall. They can run marathons but still be out of shape because they eat garbage a

This summer I have failed miserably. My focus on my kids has been too much. Can you actually do this? My answer: Yes. What I mean is that I have almost smothered them with focused time. Its back fired in the way that you just need a break (all the time) from the people you want to focus on. I believe its very important to give your present moments to the individuals in front of you. Yet, there is such a thing where it becomes overboard. I have personally done this. I also hav

My work is truly one of my passions in life and so it makes it easy to love and do. I am an overachiever, so when it comes to people’s personal development I am all about giving you excellence.

The new year! Here is a sheet I love to use as a fresh start to everything. This is a sheet I use for myself. You have more natural energy when you are clear with your environment, health and emotional balance, money and relationships. An Oraganized life gives you greater potential for the things ahead! “The Checklist to Organized” consists of 100 items which, when completed, give you the vitality, strength, and peace you are desiring. The original sheets I started with were

The New Year…it’s when I kick-start my health by doing a cleanse and upping my workouts. It’s when I organize like mad my closets and put up all the christmas decor. It’s when I map out our financials and our travels for the remainder of the year. The start of something new has always been a great calibration for me. I really hit serious momentum. I eat it up. I love the season of fall and new books… and pencils! Despite the fact I have been out of school for a decade! Every

I took my daughter to school the other day and as I walked in there was someone slouched in a chair waiting on their phone. I realized it was one of the moms only after she stood up! She was sitting so sloped and hunched I missed it completely that she was an adult citizen. Straighten up!! There is an epidemic today on really bad posture! Its awful! People either don’t care or have never been taught the benefits of standing and sitting tall. Plain and simple it makes you look

Spring evokes cleaning spree’s, shopping for my kids new shoes, and color shifts! All of a sudden the grey and black and muted hues of winter are gone and color pops up everywhere! It can make things seem very fresh and energizing! What colors energize you? A colorful world is a world of meaning because people have always used color as symbol of feelings, energy, motivation, and branding. It is even proven to influence our behavior I love color. My sister-in-law and her fami

I was at a conference last weekend where one of the speakers asked us what our values were? What do we want them to be? immediately I had my husband forward me my typed out framed family values we have on our front table and I started thinking about my personal list in my journal and everything else but as thought out as I had been on this I realized that I still felt like I was missing something in the “Value’s”department. In our world there are so many things you can value.

I had a real big scare recently. Big. BIG! I mean really enormous. To not bore people with the details I’ll just say this. After an amazing hangout time with my little sister over a long week-end I sent her home to find out that night she rushed to the ER having a heart-attack. She is 20 years old. My sister is my best friend. She is also my only sister, (I have three brothers too). She is the one that introduced my husband into my life and the one who came up and took care o

I am learning what it means to Brand. Recently, I have been working on a business venture/opportunity. I have become a health and lifestyle coach. As a former ballet dancer turned mom, with a passion for helping equip people to live exceptionally, this has been an awesome journey. I have loved expanding myself in this field. I have however, had difficulty figuring out website designs and programs and logo’s. I have come to learn and see that I am not creating the company Coac
