What would you tell someone if they asked you “I’m struggling in my life…any advice on what I can do to make it better?” Obviously, it depends on the severity of the issue. In this episode, I share very personal stories of times when I was struggling and the steps I took to climb out of that mindset and step into a more empowering one.

I used to judge myself constantly. After a conversation with a co-worker, I’d think about the good things or bad things I said. After a date, I would replay the date in my head and judge my actions/conversation. I judged my weight, hair, clothing, attitude, and most anything else you can think of. What I didn’t realize was…the more I judged myself, the more I judged OTHERS too. It is nearly impossible to not judge others if you judge yourself harshly. And vice versa. A change was necessary and I...

I’ve been very blessed to not get Covid until June 2022. I avoided it long enough and I guess my time came. I’m a very social person so quarantining for 5 days made me originally believe that that could feel like 5 MONTHS. I missed a salsa dancing night, a dinner, time with family, and workouts in the gym. That’s one way to look at it. The other way to look at it is… what could I LEARN thru this experience? I’m very lucky that my symptoms were mostly mild and I know not everyone is that fortunat...
