Savoring It All

By Business Growth, Happiness, Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

I’ve spent the last 2 weeks slowing down. Coming down off the high of yet another successful transformational event. Facilitating people finding their voices, releasing old limiting beliefs and stepping into new possibilities for themselves. Inviting them to choose from love vs fear and desire vs obligation. I came to Jamaica to visit with family and sink my energetic roots deep into the country of my birth. I realized many moons ago this is necessary for me to do at…

It’s Not About Being “Careful”

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

A few weeks ago, as I stepped out of my house in the late evening to walk my dog, Sadie, I started to slide on the ice outside my front door. Whoa! I looked around and saw that a thin layer of ice was covering the entire sidewalk and road! I had to walk her, so I figured out pretty quickly that if I walked on the grass it was safer. I slowly made my way up the block, carefully…

The Power Of Changing Your Mind

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

Did you see the movie “Fences”? I loved it! It is based on a powerful play by August Wilson. I loved that even though it was a movie, I felt like I was watching a play. No cinematic fluff. I loved that the filmmaker chose to keep it simple and NOT to use all of the tools available through current technology. It was carried solely on the strength of the brilliant acting (Viola Davis won the academy award for Best…

Finally! The Baby’s Here!

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

If you’ve been following my journey over the last 8 months or so, you’ll know that I was journeying though what I called “The Void”. I surrendered fully to my Souls journey, letting go of much of what I was doing and how I was doing them and creating space for what was wanting to be birthed next through me. It’s has been a journey that has required: Developing greater levels of courage and trust – in myself and the…

Challenge or Opportunity?

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

Well, Donald Trump has been in office 11 days and chances are you are feeling A) The world has gone mad B) Incredibly stressed and angry C) Disconnected from the whole thing I spoke with a friend last night (who lives in another country) and she was feeling incredibly stressed out by what is happening here in America. I was curious as to why she felt so affected, since she doesn’t live here. I forgot that the world is more…

The Power of Disappointment

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

Ever just feel like you’re struggling? You know what you “should” be doing, yet you just can’t seem to muster up the motivation or inspiration to do it? You do just the bare minimum. The things that are already on your schedule. You show up for your commitments, but in the spaces around them, you collapse mindlessly in front of the tv or numb out watching movies on Netflix or Amazon prime. That was me last week. I felt exhausted! I’ve…

Are You Paying Attention?

By Personal Growth, Self Care, Success No Comments

Yesterday I was going to the restroom on a break at a seminar I was attending. I was checking my emails on my phone while I walked (even though I get annoyed at people who nearly run me over because they are looking at their phones instead of paying attention to where they are going! Lol!) My very full bladder was relieved to find there wasn’t the usual long line in the ladies rest room and I only put my…

The Ultimate Surrender

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success 5 Comments

Last week I got this cryptic text message from a friend: When I finally figured out it was not an email she was referring to (lol) I checked my mailbox outside and found a huge box that contained two boxes of a brand of Jamaican ginger tea (that I had enjoyed while visiting with her in Key West) and a beautiful piece of Coral that I had admired in a gift shop down by the pier as we were “doing…

Ensuring Your Success: Making Your Dream A Reality

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

  It’s August 2010 and I’m walking through the exhibitors hall at the EWomen’s conference in Dallas – having an epic meltdown. I’m crying my eyes out. Feeling totally overwhelmed, lost and alone. I’m confused and struggling with self doubt and fear. I’m surrounded by all these amazing women entrepreneurs and I’ve convinced myself they are all smarter, more savvy, more accomplished than me. I have completely forgotten the amazing accomplishments in my life up till that moment. (Which included…

Why Confidence Is Over-Rated

By Business Growth, Personal Growth, Success No Comments

Sure, confidence is very sexy. No doubt about it. It’s much easier to take action when you feel confident. The problem is that many people are waiting until they feel “confident” before they take action.  Big problem. If you’re waiting till you feel confident (safe, sure, bold) before you take action you’re slowing yourself down and holding yourself back.  Why?  Experience builds confidence. You learn as you do. You learn what you like and what you don’t. What works and what doesn’t. How to…
