Podcasts, Dreams, and Fears.

Podcasts, Dreams, and Fears.

Okay I have some pretty big news (well it feels like big news to me) I HAVE STARTED A PODCAST!!! Holy scary. My inner mean voice is going NUTS with things like “who the hell do you think you are? NO one is going to listen to you ramble for 30 minutes each week. What do you even have to say anyways.” And I would consider that the nice version of her…

How Do You Talk ABOUT Yourself?

How Do You Talk ABOUT Yourself?

A couple of weeks ago, I was at a conference with coworkers. While there I was meeting a lot of our partners and clients for the first time. Basically, I found myself trying to make and keep conversations constantly. A few days into the conference, I realized something about myself that I had never realized before - the way I talked about myself to others - especially around new folks. While I am constantly working on my inner self talk and the way I talk to me, I never really stopped to notice how I represented myself in a conversation. And that weekend, I learned that I tend to outwardly make fun of me.

What It Really Means to Listen to Your Body

What It Really Means to Listen to Your Body

Learning to listen to my body has allowed me to make the kinds of decisions that are right for me in the exact moment I am living in as well as create a deeper connection to my intuition. This lesson is the reason I have decided to shift my brand and my message because it is one of the most important and life altering lessons in my life thus far. If I can help just one person learn how to listen and trust their body again, then holy moly that is all I could ever ask for.

Dealing With Rock Bottom Doesn't Have to be Pretty or Perfect

Dealing With Rock Bottom Doesn't Have to be Pretty or Perfect

While working on Eric's birthday gift last week (a photo album of our past year), I was forced to reflect on this past summer and all of the hardship and growth behind the beauty of the some of those photos. And I thought now that the dust has settled and I have had some time to reflect, it would be a good time to talk about everything that went down and why I am now so, so thankful for all of it.

Last Weekend, I Put Fear in the Drivers Seat..

Last Weekend, I Put Fear in the Drivers Seat..

I’ve been discussing these topics of love vs fear based decisions along with worthiness/ approval, and how to navigate our feelings to find those things internally. I wanted to talk about an experience from the weekend that challenged me when it came to all of the above and to remind you that this is a constant practice, that it is something I work on every single day. And while it may not always be easy, it is always worth it.

I Am Enough

I Am Enough

The single concept that I alone choose my worthiness and self approval was one of the most drastic, ah hah, life changing realizations I have ever experienced. I’ve touched on this in the past but I wanted to make it a focus today because it is so important in our journey to discovering who we are and what truly makes us happy. And until we realize that we choose how we feel about ourselves, we will be forever be searching externally for some of the most important pieces of us, those pieces that we can only find within.

The Decision Making Process: Love vs Fear

The Decision Making Process: Love vs Fear

Making a decision out of fear is choosing to listen to the part of you that is always pulling on your fear strings. Most often than not, we make this choice because we are, obviously, afraid of something. Whether it be saying yes to take on another task even though you are completely maxed out but you don't want to hurt the other person's feelings by saying no. Or you decide to spend extra hours in the gym and cut back calories because you are feeling guilty about something you ate last night, or you deny a promotion because you are afraid you will fail.

Recovering ControlFreak : Part 2 (Mountain Lion Edition)

Recovering ControlFreak : Part 2 (Mountain Lion Edition)

The only thing I actually can control are my reactions.

Since we are on this topic of control I thought I would talk about a situation that occurred this past weekend for Part 2 of my Control Series. One of those situations where truly the only thing I had in my control was how I reacted to each situation I was presented with. Saturday night some deep fears became reality and I had a choice to either let them win or take a different path.
