By Awareness, Clarity, experiences, Focus, Happiness, perspective, SHIFT No Comments

I’m here in California snuggling with my 3 month old grand daughter, Emilia. As I sink my nose into her neck, deeply inhaling that oh-so-sweet baby smell, I am deeply grateful to finally hold her in my arms. My heart is filled with joy! It was a 5 hour plane ride to get here.

The Power of Owning Your Story and Standing in Your Truth

By Power No Comments

“When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we get to write a brave new ending.” ~ Brene Brown Sharing my story publicly is not the easiest thing I’ve ever done.

What’s Your Fear Of Confrontation Costing You?

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

I used to HATE confrontation. I would avoid it like the plague because I was raised to believe it’s “not nice” and I placed a high value on being “nice”.  Is that true for you too? It’s one of the driving forces behind what I call “TOXIC NICENESS”  (where we hold back from expressing how we really feel for fear of hurting someones feelings or to avoid them thinking badly of us.) Fear of confronting (looking at or speaking the…
