Today is part one of a 2 part conversation. I recently spent 4 days in Dallas with Amanda Gibby Peters. She's a feng shui expert and the creator of Simple Shui©, a modern-day, mission-driven, love-based practice of feng shui. Also, my bff and someone who's work has changed my life. We were having such amazing conversations about energy and clutter and WHY it really really REALLY matters to get clutter out of your space and we spontaneously decided to grab a microphone and record the conversation...

Today I'm talking all about the feminine energy. What it is, why it matters SO much right now that we connect with it and HOW to tap into it.

Today I want to help you turn that idea on it's head. Why tapping into the feminine energy is SO important right now and I'll give you 10 different ways to start. Book a ...

If you want your life to feel less heavy...if you want to NOT be triggered every day all day...if you want to feel FREE and LIGHT...you've GOT to learn to calm yourself.

I've been writing love letters...quick little poems...to the women in my membership community for 5 years and SO often I hear back from them, "THIS is exactly what I needed to hear today".

Ready for your AHA moment today? You one have one life. One big go around this planet. How are you gonna spend it? If you’re like most people, you’re spending time thinking your circumstances need to change before you can be happier: wishing things were different…a smaller waist, a lovey dovey partner, kids that can take care of themselves. I get it. But here’s the thing: your circumstances don’t create your feelings. Your THOUGHTS do. How you think about the size of your body, the way you think...

The scale is at a standstill no matter how much you exercise, couple’s counseling is causing more blow-ups than resolutions, spring cleaning has created a bigger mess than when you started… Before you throw in the towel, listen to this.

Why is making decisions SO hard for some people? Well…if you’re like my son Parker, you are terrified of making the wrong decision. You take everyone’s feelings into consideration and let that fear of disappointing people get in the way of what you really want. As a mom, I push Parker to lean into his intuition… and as your life coach bestie I’m gonna do the same with you. Change happens one little decision at a time. I know this because I transformed my life by making better decisions. Toda...

If I had a dollar for every time I said "I'm great at STARTING things...just not finishing them" I'd be a gazillionaire. For real. I was the queen of starting and not finishing, of getting excited to start a new habit and giving up a few days later, of telling myself I'm going to DO it this time and never following through. I believed that's just who I was always going to be. Until I had enough and learned how to FOLLOW THROUGH. I learned how to change my mindset so that I became a woman who alm...

You’ve survived 100% of your bad days. The problem is that you can’t handle things. The problem is that you THINK you can’t handle things. The problem is that yo...

Hello, friend! This is a bonus episode...just a bite sized nugget of inspiration that I want you to hear...something my heart really wanted to tell you. I had a FB memory pop up that swooshed me back 8 years to the day my dad went into the hospital for the last time. He lived for 11 more days and in those days, I was reminded AGAIN of why we're on this planet. It's not just to crawl through life in survival mode. It's not to just get through the days hoping someone or something will change and m...

You’re gonna need a strong cup of coffee for this episode. This is a really really big topic that I’m excited to talk to you about today. I’ve struggled with this. Every single person who's ever been a client of mine has struggled with this belief about themselves too: “I never follow through.” “I start things and never finish them.” “I always end up giving up.” Are you a chronic giver upper? Is your goal collecting dust in your mind? Do you have trouble keeping focused on, interested in, or eve...

The science is simple. Our habits, good or bad, rewire our brains. When we repeat a behavior, like complaining, over and over again it charges those neurological connections to make complaining easier and automatic. The more you complain, the more your brain rewires itself for negativity. Complaining takes us out of our strongest energy and it doesn’t lead us to answers….only more things to complain about. Complaining doesn’t solve problems, it’s just an attempt by our egos to get some validatio...

Three lies we tell ourselves about our dream life: I don’t know what my dream life looks like, I’ve tried that before and failed, I don’t have the time or money to pursue this. As soon as we even think about changing our mind comes ups with all these reasons why we can’t. Why is it so hard for us to dream big? Because our negative thoughts are in the driver’s seat. We’re scared. Scared of failing, scared of reaching for something we’ll never achieve. We don’t think we deserve spending money on o...

This episode is proof that you just never know when inspiration is gonna hit. The inspiration for this week: a toilet paper roll in a bathroom stall in a hotel in Louisville, Kentucky. Listen to the episode for the full story, but here's the gist: there are two paths you can take to transformation...the HARD path or the EASY path. And as humans, we are naturally wired to focus on the HARD way. Our brains are designed that way on purpose. The problem is that when we believe what we want to achiev...

Scientists argue that humans have between 20,000 to 60,000 thoughts per day. How many of those thoughts do you think are mindful? Hardly any of them, right? We collect thoughts. Hoard them and replay them over and over again. Just like those jeans in your closet, they don't fit but maybe they will someday. If there are thoughts that are not serving you that don't represent who you are becoming, don't put them back in your mind. You can change them. Yes, yes, you can change your thoughts! But how...

“One of the only things I wished I did was take care of myself sooner. I felt like it was never the right time to take care of myself mentally.” These are the words of my former client who passed away from pancreatic cancer.

We have these thoughts in our heads, “I can do it on my own or I don’t have time.” In today’s episode, I’m sharing the top 5 reasons why we don’t invest in ourselves.

I spent most of my adult life setting goals that never made it past a week. I always got super excited to sit down on New Years Eve to create new goals, but I just never followed through. But over the years I've been tweaking my process. Using a combination of traditional goal writing and feeling-driven goals to come up with a process that really works. I've transformed my entire life because I know how to follow through on my goals and because I know how to manage my thoughts. In today's episod...

Until I found the way that works for me and for my clients. In today's episode I want to share with you 7 of the main reasons you've been setting goals without achieving them. I want you to und...
