This holiday season I have the privilege of being single. I call it that because I have the rare chance to focus entirely on myself, my friends, my family, and really find quality time to enjoy ME. And I freakin' love it! I've decided to take a positive approach and so should you…

Note: I refer to the voices in our head as our ego. My interpretation of the ego is that voice that warns us when we could potentially face harm, humiliation, disappointment, or any other form of…

I believe everyone knows what they want to do in their life. This includes you! However, you may not be consciously aware of your purpose because of the little voice in your head: your "ego". Your ego suppresses your ability to fulfill your purpose because it fuels…

Yes, you. ‘Forgive myself for what’, you might…

Play pretend with me and fast-forward to the day you are on your deathbed (morbid I know, but humor me here!). You look back on your life and ask yourself these three questions: Did I live? Did I love? Did I matter? Would you be able to give a resounding YES!to each of…

Have you ever had a big dream that you were so insanely passionate about that you just knew you would regret not going after it?

Affirmations are the most effective way I know to increase your confidence and self image / esteem.  You repeat them daily, in really just a minute or two or three.  It's an easy thing to add to your daily routine.  I personally tend to do them while driving to/from home.
