The Conditional VS Creative Life

If there is anything I have learned in this life it is that we have an incredible creative power to make our lives what we want, regardless of any external conditions.

I’ll be honest, though.  It took me a long time to get to that place.

For most of my life, I thought life was kind of a toss up.  You win some, you lose some and for most people, life was a jumble of the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Sure, there were people telling us we could be whatever we wanted to be, but the reality I lived in was so powerful, I’m not sure I believed it.

You can probably relate to this idea of ‘conditional living’ right?

There have probably been times when you allowed your external circumstances to dictate how you think and feel.

Bank account dipping close to zero=really crappy feelings and constant worry.

Relationship woes=feeling badly about yourself and your romantic future.

Struggling your way through a sucky job=suck it up buttercup, that’s just life.

But is that TRUE?

Do we just have to suck it up and hope for a better tomorrow or is there something we can actually do to create a better life?

The truth is, there is another way.

There is the infinite, powerful, creative way of living that changes everything.

Believe me…it changed my life.

Once I realized that *I* had control over how I think and feel and that those very thoughts and feelings had the power to shift and change my outer reality…magic happened.

I did things I never thought possible like start my business and help my clients change their lives.

I made more money.

I met my soulmate.

I bought a dream house.

Now, if you would have asked 16 year old me if this would ever be my future, I would have laughed at you because at that time, I didn’t think very highly of myself and I was living, eating, and breathing a life of lack.

I was merely trying to survive life…never mind THRIVING in life.

It’s actually kind of sad to think of, but it’s true.

My default setting was “I can’t…” and it didn’t matter what followed those words.

I didn’t think I could do anything.  I didn’t think I was worthy of love, abundance, joy, or very much really.

BUT…that all changed, when I began shifting my mindset. 

It took a few years of searching for the key to happiness before I landed in the world of personal-development and began doing some of the internal work necessary to change my life.

If ever you’ve wanted to change your life for the better, I can tell you first hand it all starts with your mindset.

We all have thoughts, beliefs, and old programming that we carry with us about ourselves, our lives, and how we interact with the world.  Our mindset powers our beliefs which powers what we expect to experience.  From there our reality is created.

But, what if with a bit of awareness, reprogramming, and a commitment to your new life, you could create instant shifts that would make you happier?

Would you be interested?

A huge portion of the work I do with my clients is based around mindset and helping them get out of the stinkin’ thinkin’ that keeps them stuck and unfulfilled and into the empowered, enlightened, life-giving space that creates miraculous shifts in their lives.

It’s also what inspired me to create a transformational Miracle Mindset Immersion program for YOU.

This is a 4 week group journey that has the potential to change your life forever.  Mindset work is something we all need, especially if you aren’t exactly where you’d like to be in your life right now.

It all begins May 2nd and I’d love for you to join us!  Early Bird pricing expires Monday April 25th at 11:59pm EST so if you are interested, get signed up asap!  Click the button below for more details!

The Key to Your EVERY Desire is Closer than You Think…

If I had a magic wand and I could deliver your every desire right this second, what would you ask for?

More money?  A better job?  New opportunities?

To meet your soul mate and live happily ever after?  More wishes like this?

What if I asked you WHY you wanted all of those things to begin with, what would you say?

Is it because you’d have more freedom?  More joy?

More peace of mind?  More happiness?

I’ve got some truly magical news for you.  Are you ready?

The key to ALL of those things you desire and everything you could ever want for the rest of your life is so much closer than you think.

(It’s not in my magic wand either.)

The KEY is YOU.

That’s right.  The key to unlock every single opportunity, desire, want, wish, or big dream of yours lies WITH YOU.

And more importantly the joy, happiness, freedom, and peace you are ready to experience once all of your wishes come true BEGINS and ENDS with you.

The thing is most people don’t understand that.  They don’t know how to access the key nor do they know what to do with it.

The truth is, the key appears when you…

  • Stand in your power.
  • Own your truth and live it unapologetically.
  • Give yourself permission to be brilliantly, YOU.
  • Open yourself to endless opportunities in this life.

AND…When you get rid of all the stories, beliefs, sabotaging behaviors, and blocks that keep you from being the strong, unique, and powerful soul you came into this life to BE.

Isn’t it funny how quickly we forget how powerful and magnificent we truly are?  I mean, we came from the very thing that created the world.  We are made of this incredible, universal energy that allows the world to spin, the sun to rise, and the waves to ebb and flow.

Do you think the Sun ever wonders if it’s GOOD enough, WORTHY enough, or even STRONG enough to shine bright and provide the powerful energy for all its living inhabitants?

Do you think Mother Earth ever questions her ability to go through the cycles of growth, death, and rebirth throughout the seasons?

Do you think the Ocean ever once worries about what we think of it as it does its thing?

Hell no!

All of the above simply ARE what they are.  No worries.  No fear.  No stories. No sabotage.

They are strong, powerful, beautiful, and they have a PURPOSE…as do YOU.

So why do we allow the past stories and what others think get in the way of what we are put here to do?

Why do we question ourselves in what we are capable of?

Why aren’t we JUST DOING IT already?

It’s because many of us have forgotten that we have the key to unlock incredible power, potential, and creative force that knows NO bounds and it all begins within your mind.

How you think and feel about yourself, your abilities, and the world all contribute to whether or not you use the key.

And depending on how you were raised, it’s safe to say you may not have been brought up with the proper tools to manage this incredible creative power you wield.

Let’s be honest…you want to be happy.  We all do. But the source, the fuel, the power that makes all things possible and your every desire worth creating LIES WITHIN YOU.

Your job is to…

  • Simply learn to tap into that creative power so you can BE, HAVE, & DO anything your heart desires.
  • Rid yourself of the stories, the drama, and the drudgery that creeps up when you set out to accomplish the BIG things you desire.
  • Build a belief system that KNOWS and never questions your ability to make magic happen in your life.

It’s that simple.

And contrary to popular belief, mindset work isn’t just for the entrepreneurial world, it’s for anyone who wants to stretch themselves outside their comfort zone and make their dreams come true.

Mindset work is for YOU and it will change your life…guaranteed.

So, if you don’t have a mindset practice or you don’t even know where to begin, I invite you to join me TODAY for my Miracle Mindset: Creating Your New Normal call.  It starts at 2pm EST and you can get all the details about how to join us by signing up to my VIP list.

Don’t worry if you can’t make it live for the call, it will be recorded and I’ll be sending out some awesome tools right after the call so you don’t want to miss this!

Do you want to be truly happy? Do this!

For far too many people ‘happiness’ is an ever-elusive future possibility.

With more money, love, success, adventure, ____(fill in the blank) we think we will have more joy and happiness in our lives, but I don’t believe that to be true.

What I now know, from many years of going against the grain of my own soul is that happiness is not only an inside job, but it requires a few key components…none of which you have to wait for.

You want to be truly happy?  Follow these simple steps.

  • Speak your truth.  Stop allowing others to stifle your essence as they tell you who to be and how to act.  Lean into your natural flow of living, breathing, and being and give yourself permission to speak your truth.  Know what you want out of life and go get it, unapologetically.  Stop following the herd and doing all the things everyone else is doing because you think you’re supposed to.  Find your truth and then live it, every.single.day.
  • Find your flow. I talk about this all the time with my clients and it’s SO important when it comes to being happy.  Finding your flow is all about leaning into what works for you.  Stepping into the path that while it might be a challenge is exciting, invigorating, and inspires you.  It’s about finding what you do naturally instead of following all the ‘traditional’ how-to guides.  Oh and one more thing…stop judging yourself for NOT ‘fitting in’ with the status quo.  You weren’t meant to fit in my dear…you were meant to find what works for you and do it beautifully.
  • Know what you want…then go get it.  Sounds simple enough right?  Unfortunately there are far too many people not willing to be honest with themselves about what it is they truly want out of life.  Speak it into reality.  Know it. Own it. Live it. Love it. And while you are at it…love YOURSELF.  

Without these 3 things, happiness will always feel just outside your reach.  The reality is that only YOU have the power to make yourself happy.  Don’t play victim to your circumstance any longer and allow yourself to be FREE knowing that you deserve to think, feel, and experience happiness every day.

And one more thing….

If the steps above feel a bit too difficult or you are rolling your eyes say ‘yeah right, that’s all you have to do!?’, hit the button below and let’s chat.

Your happiness is priceless and you shouldn’t be spending another minute living in uncertainty wondering when and if you will ever be happy.  Helping clients find it within themselves is my specialty, so let’s talk.

When Life Gives You Lemons, Make Mindset Lemonade

by

Mindset has been on my mind over the last month or so and it’s probably because I’ve had to do some MAJOR reframing in my own mind to deal with a massive life move I am currently going through.

Between balancing my business, the move, selling a house, and dealing with what feels like 100 other things at once, I have to admit, my mindset has not been the greatest.

The Universe so kindly reminded me of this and provided impeccable inspiration to write not one but two pieces on the importance of mindset work that I’m sharing with you today.

If life is currently giving you more “lemons” than you feel you can handle right now, some teachers will tell you to “think happy thoughts”, and while I would tend to agree under normal circumstances, I’m learning that that just doesn’t cut it sometimes.  Instead, I’ve found 5 other ways of handling these moments that are far more productive.

I even wrote a piece about it on The Huffington Post.  You can check out “Why “Thinking Happy Thoughts” Isn’t Enough: 5 Things You Should Do Instead here.

If instead, you are feeling a bit sick of your ‘lemon’ reality and are ready to fast-track your mindset and life, then you need this incredibly powerful mindset hack that changes lives.  I know it sounds dramatic, but I promise this is amazing.

Check out my article on MindBodyGreen: The Mindset-Shifting Hack That Gets You What You Really Want In Life

Rest assured knowing that if you are going through some lemon-like times, you’re not alone.  Many of us are going through incredible transformations right now and part of that means turning said lemons into mindset lemonade.

Remember this won’t last forever and that you have the power to shift anything in your life.

Onward and upward friends!!!

Cookie-cutter, one size fits all coaching. I call bullshit.

It’s time for me to share this message with you and while it might not be very popular and you may decide to unsubscribe, but it’s something that has to be said.

Today, I’m owning my essence and sharing it with you today.

No more hiding or being afraid that I might offend someone.

Today I’m calling bullshit on all the cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all, do it MY way and succeed methods of coaching and teaching (and anything else for that matter).

Yeah, it sounds good and many of us want guarantees that specific methods and modalities are going to be surefire ways to transform our lives and make us rich forever more, but that only holds true if we are all the SAME, which we aren’t.

YOU are a beautiful mixture of cells, soul, and energy combined with your many experiences from this lifetime and beyond.

YOU have amazing gifts, thoughts, skills, and natural talents that make you the incredible being that you are.

YOU are not cookie cutter and neither am I, so why is it that there are so many strategies that speak to ‘the one’ thing that will change your life forever more?

Why aren’t there more people, strategies, teachers, healers, and the like teaching us how to tap into the all-knowing, ever-growing, incredible force that we all have inside of us to make our lives amazing?

Why aren’t more people teaching us to tap into our intuitive gifts so that we may be empowered now and forever more?

In the last 2.5 years as my business and coaching have evolved, I’ve come to realize many of the traditional things didn’t work for me no matter how hard I tried.  I tried to do business the “right” way, even when it didn’t resonate for me on the deepest level.

I tried. I listened. I pushed. I forced, and I tried again.

For an entire year I thought something was wrong with ME because the strategies the “pros” were telling me to use just weren’t resonating and I was losing faith in my inner compass.

I was losing myself.

It wasn’t until I finally stepped away from the formulas, the strategies, and the sure-fire-ways to success that I found myself again and what I was really meant to do in my work.  It was something I had to learn to do for myself first.

Sure my work is helping you to create a life of your dreams and give yourself permission to live an amazing life, but it’s more than that.

My work is more along the lines of empowerment and teaching you to listen to your soul and do what is right for you!  It’s teaching you to blaze a trail for your life that fits YOU…not the life someone else set forth for you.

I am here to teach you what I have learned the hard way and that is to find your way back to yourself so you can live and experience life the way your soul intended.  I’m here to help guide you back to YOU so you can stand in your truth fully, happily, and unapologetically because you don’t fit any cookie cutter approach and that’s ok.

Today, I call bullshit on the one-size-fits-all approach to life and the pursuit of happiness and instead I’m embracing the beautiful, sometimes topsy-turvy, journey of discovery. 

I am accepting and embodying my flow and I’m asking you to do the same.

Listen. Respond. Act. And when you need assistance, reach out, but make sure you are connecting with teachers, healers and the like who are helping you find your way back to YOU.

The truth is, there is no magic pill or path to happiness, money, success, or anything else.  There’s only YOUR way and you have to stand strong in your power and be willing to find your flow.

My purpose is to help you do just that. 

If you want to join me on this self-discovery journey in finding your flow and embracing your essence, I’d love to chat with you (simply hit the button below).

May you always embrace the calling of your soul!
