Something I heard almost all of 2024 was the viewpoint that starting something new was equal to starting over, and starting over from zero. As we move into the new year can we be done with this limiting belief??

I once heard someone say “Who you are will set you free” and I fully believe that. It has taken me a while to come to terms with this, but when you stop running from what sets you apart and instead embrace it, so much good can come into your life. Your unique advantage is what sets you apart. Chances are good your unique advantage has followed you throughout your life. We are the sum of our experiences, who we are now is because of what we experienced yesterday. This episode is all about finding...

It was in the audio recording The Strangest Secret from Earl Nightingale I first heard the following phrase; “People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are.

The concept that we have the p...

Time blocking your day is definitely nothing new, in entrepreneurship or in your personal life. This is, however, a new approach to time blocking that involves being double-intentional with that time frame.

Kicking off the year with a super creative weekend! In October of 2023 I made the decision to "attend the events" in 2024 which led to purchasing a 2-day ticket for the LA Fit Expo. Fast forward to the week of the expo and I have 3 separate events scheduled for the weekend, all of which are in the areas I want to be in and with people doing the things I want to do. This was a prime example of making a decision, walking in it, and seeing the universe bring your decision to you in droves. I had mu...
