Believe it or not stress is necessary for growth, and if you’re anything like me and my clients you LOVE GROWTH.

Restlessness isn’t an easy feeling to deal with. Let's be real. In fact, when we DO feel it, most stressed successes constantly feel the need to fill their time. And when they can’t find anything to fill their time, this feeling of restlessness typically leads to feeling even more confused and ashamed about their life, overeating, pouring the extra glass of wine, scrolling their phone for someone to reach out to, or turning to work on miscellaneous, low priority tasks at work to pass the time. H...

Why is it that some people struggle to create the future they REALLY want, let alone believe it’s possible for them, while others continue to reach their dreams year after year? What is it that allows some to create loud and audacious goals, while others stick to what’s “realistically” possible for them?

What if you could be so calm during chaos that everything feels as if it were moving in slow motion? What if you could hit the pause button before reacting in stress and panic towards another high priority meeting, and responded with ease, confidence, and true power? Guess what? You ARE that powerful. So powerful that whether you know it or not, YOU are the one that created panic in the first place. And if you created it, you can also stop it, but it will require you to start thinking on PURPOSE...

In part two of the Relationship Stress series we’ll be discussing the second biggest reason why we’ve become so unsettled in our professional and personal relationships. I’ll be sharing how “1 way channeling” is leading to having a secondary relationship with people in our minds, and how this split of how we treat people in our minds vs. in real life is causing so much disconnect and stress. If you ever talk to yourself or negotiate with yourself about certain people in your mind but end up show...

There’s a reason why we feel stressed out when it comes to certain relationships, and it’s called - the Manual. Believe it or not you have what’s called a Manual for how you expect certain people in your life to behave. If you’ve ever felt frustrated when someone at work doesn’t speak to you with respect, is always late with their work, or perhaps you get upset when your partner doesn’t put away the dishes or takes out the garbage by a certain time - whether you know it or not, you have a Manual...

Email doesn’t cause your stress; if you think about it, email just sits in a virtual cloud and yet why do we let something such as email, bother us to the point where we can’t have a perfectly normal day without wondering, “I wonder what’s happened this time?”. The problem AND the answer is inside our brain. We’ve conditioned our brain to respond with stress - even before we’ve touched our phone to see WHO or WHAT the email is about. Crazy isn’t it? The good news, you can decondition your brain ...

You’d think with having more time and LESS physical obligations, LESS people to worry about, and LESS places to go, that naturally your stress would slightly follow suit and decrease as well. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case for many people around the world and that is because our brains never stop working and LOVES to solve problems. And just because there’s less to do, doesn’t mean there’s less for your brain to focus on. In fact, have you noticed that even the smallest things have got...

Do you ever tense up when you see notifications, bolded emails, or unanswered phone calls? And because you feel this way do you ever wonder to yourself, “What the heck is wrong with me?”. In this week’s episode I’m sharing why it’s so important to recognize when we have thoughts, feelings, and reactions that are simply based on circuitry, instead of making our reaction MEAN something negative about who we are or that something has gone terribly wrong. When we live in malfunction vs. recognizing ...

Unlike physical pain, so many high performers have a much higher tolerability to mental pain.

Listen in as I share my take on your questions around how to feel confident, meeting work expectations, how to tackle the fear of failure, and more! Some of the common themes I notice in many high performers is that it’s far too easy to change the circumstance or take more action in order to feel better because… well, we can! As a high performer it’s easy to do the work, even if it means taking more time to do so. However, what you’ll learn inside this episode is that just because you do the wor...

What do YOU do when you feel angry? Is it an emotion you feel often or rarely? For many people that I work with, anger isn’t a baseline emotion that my clients feel on a daily basis unlike worry and stress. So what happens when suddenly you feel anger like never before? How do you manage your thoughts and emotions that almost leave you feeling out of control, vulnerable, and completely unlike the old you? If you don’t often feel angry and don’t know what to do with yourself when you DO feel ange...

Are you unknowingly draining your mental and emotional energy throughout the day without even realizing it? Ever feel constantly scattered, unproductive, and unfocused throughout the day? Do you ever wonder to yourself, “Why am I so tired?” or “Why don’t I have enough energy at the end of the day to do the things I WANT to do?”. So many high performers THINK they are focused on the task at hand, when really their current energy is scattered because they are operating from worry or fear from the ...

When we aren’t managing our thoughts it’s easy to start wondering, “What’s wrong with me?”, especially when we KNOW, intellectually, that nothing is THAT bad. And we start searching for obscure articles on google trying to find the answer for why we feel terrible despite having a perfectly good life. Ironically, because this action presupposes that something is wrong, we end up perpetuating feeling terrible when the truth is, nothing is wrong and all we had to do was manage the thoughts in our b...

What if I told you that the reason why we seek approval is because we don’t approve of our own self first? Think about it, if you 100% believed in yourself, ideas, product, and services, it wouldn’t matter what anyone thinks because you believe in yourself first. On the other hand, if someone else’s thought is supporting YOUR THOUGHTS of disapproval or doubt of what you have to offer the world, then to the unmanaged brain, it becomes second nature to constantly seek the people who DO approve so ...

This one simple mindset shift might be the difference between staying STUCK in fear, worry, and doubt, to getting back into the ZONE and into alignment. Most people who remain struggling and stressed center their attention on the “Why” questions and thoughts. And once we overstay our welcome in the “Why”, we end up in massive resistance that holds us back from showing up as our future selves who ultimately holds the solution. Because let’s be honest, your future self isn’t wondering “why”, they ...

Holding space to have tough conversations is a beautiful skill to learn so that we can make it less about us talking and more about the importance of the content and the relationship itself.
