Ready to change your life? (Read this.)

by

If you’ve never had a session with me, you may not know that during my calls with clients I am totally in the zone.  I’m asking questions, taking notes, and sharing insights and nudges I get from my intuition.  (Of course if you asked me ‘how’ I do what I do, I wouldn’t have an answer for you.  I just do it.)

Many times, amazing gems fly out of my mouth before I ever realize just how profound it is and last week I happened to catch this amazing wisdom I’m going to share with you today.

I was having a chat with one of my clients who is making some massive shifts in her mindset, career, and life in general and last week she was bumping up against her fear of the unknown.

With questions popping up all over the place like: “What if it doesn’t work out?  How can I be sure? But what if I fail?” (and many more), I asked her a question that changed everything.

It may not be a question you’ve thought to ask yourself, but here it is:

Are you willing to give up the HOPE of what can be, in order to stay in the discomfort of what is?

Basically, are you willing to stay where you are (even if you are uncomfortable, frustrated, pissed off, and just down right tired), in order to avoid the fear and incidentally the hope of what may be?

If so, then I can tell you exactly what will happen for you in the next 6 months (and I don’t need any oracle cards for this one).  You will stay exactly where you are because you are allowing FEAR to lead the way.

You see….

CHANGE happens when you are willing to take the next step forward and ACT on the inspiration you receive.

CHANGE happens when you exchange your frustration, anger, and discomfort for HOPE & the knowing that YOU have the power to create the life you desire.

CHANGE does not happen by you staying the same, being the same, and refusing to take responsibility of your future to make change happen.

Ouch!  (That’s some tough stuff to swallow, but you need to hear this.)

Where you are today and what has happened in your past is not your FAULT, but it is your responsibility TODAY to make a change if you want to see a different future.

YOU (and only you) are responsible for making the decision to leap.
YOU (and only you) are responsible for taking the next step, seeking support, investing in yourself (when needed) and doing the work to make your life what you want it to be.
YOU (and only you) are responsible for shifting your mindset and setting the wheels in motion for magic to unfold in your life.
YOU (and only you) get to make that decision.  Today and forever more.

So what do you choose?

Are you more fond of the fear that has gotten you nothing but the same, uncomfortable results or are you willing to take the leap (whatever that looks like for you) and do something different?

The truth is, you know where fear will lead you, but do you know where HOPE will lead?  I’ll tell you where.  To an amazing world of possibilities, opportunities, and CHOICES.

Believe me when I say this..I’ve been on both sides of the tracks and the HOPE side is much more comfortable.

Sure, there are times when I am really afraid of moving forward and my ego tries to convince me to stay in the cozy comfort of sameness, but the expanded part of me knows better, so I leap.  Consistently.  I walk my talk and own up to the work I teach because this shit works!

I’m sharing all of this with you because I don’t want you to move into the new year (it’s coming up pretty fast and furious) doing the SAME things over and over again with zero results.  You deserve better than that, and it’s time to step into the KNOWING of what WILL be versus the “fear” of what has been.

If you are ready to step into CHANGE with purpose, vision, and hope here are a few things you can do to get you started.

  • Make a list of 20 things you can do NOW to move you forward out of sameness and into the life you want to live.
  • Set a goal to do at least 1-2 things from that list each week from not until the end of the year (and beyond)
  • Shake things up!  Do something that is totally out of the norm for you to shake up your creativity and inspiration.  You never know what may come from it.
  • Invest in your personal development (when appropriate) with a coach, course, program, or books that will stretch your thinking and being.
  • Get an accountability buddy.  In addition to the coach I just started working with, I have a few mindset and accountability buddies I connect with almost daily.  It makes a huge difference.
  • Above all else, make a commitment to YOURSELF that you are worthy and deserving of creating change in your life.  It’s so important and goes a long way!

Last, but not least-I encourage you to sign up for my 2017 Cards & Coaching offer that is available for another 24 hours.  This is an incredible opportunity for you to get the inside scoop on what you can do starting now to pave the way for 2017 being the best year yet for just $111!!

MindPower Collective: Join us!

mindpower_-the-combination-of-mindset-personal-power-to-create

 

I don’t know about you, but the last week or so has been tough.  I’m an empath so when I see so much hate, discrimination, and hate in the world, it literally hurts my soul and causes me to want to cocoon a bit.  (Which is exactly what I did this past weekend.)

Well, to be honest, I did a little more than cocoon.  I decided to take action and created the MindPower Collective movement.

MindPower to me is simply a combination of mindset and personal power to DECIDE how we will create change in our lives as opposed to allowing others to have power over us.  The truth is, regardless of what appears to be happening in “reality”, we always have the power to choose what we see, believe, and think.  ALWAYS.

I know it’s tough right now to go beyond our emotions of disbelief, anger, fury, and frustration, but if we can take a step up out of that for a moment and remember that WE ultimately have the power.  It’s a Universal Law for goodness sake!

Everything we think, feel, imagine, and believe becomes what we create.  Everything.  So, if we don’t like what we see (and believe me I don’t!) then we must tap into the wealth of wisdom and power within to change it.  And it all starts with US.

So, I’m taking action.  I’m using my talents, gifts, and wisdom and sharing it with the like-minded souls who feel moved to join me AND I’ll be hosting a LIVE training in the MindPower Collective group this Thursday at 8:30pm EST on 7 Tips to Harness Your MindPower & Create Meaningful Change.

Join us here!

74 Days and Counting

As of today, October 18th we have 74 days left in 2016!

How does that make you feel?

Excited? Terrified? Worried? Anxious? Feeling lost and left behind because all the things you wanted to accomplish for 2016 are still sitting on a dusty “To-Do” list that has never seen the light of day since you wrote it?

If that is you…RELAX.

74 days is PLENTY of time to make magic happen in your life and you are not behind at all.  In fact, what if you knew you were exactly where you were meant to be right this very moment?  What if everything that has happened in the last several months had to happen in order to deliver the most magical 74 days ahead?

This is 100% the truth.  Everything that has happened so far in 2016 no matter how tough, difficult, trying, and frustrating has molded who you are, what you think, and how you believe TODAY.  But, what you do moving forward doesn’t depend on the last several months at all.  What you do now depends on what you desire.

So, what is it?  How do you want to end 2016?

Do you want to end it the same way you entered with lots of dreams, ambition, desire, and motivation to finally change your life OR do you want to actually SEE those changes in your life before the clock strikes 12 and welcomes in 2017?

Chances are, you want to end this year with the massive BANG and BEAUTY that it deserves.  The excitement and expansion YOU deserve.  Am I right?

I’ll be honest, 2016 has not been the best year for me all the way around, but there have been a ton of high points and I’m determined to make the remaining 74 days high points as well and I’m inviting you to join me.

Here’s how:

For the rest of the week I am offering you the chance to work with me at a price YOU set.  So, if you’ve been thinking about working with me 1:1, but haven’t pulled the trigger for whatever reason, now is your chance!

Let me help you make the remaining 74 days of the year the best they can possibly be and set you up for success in 2017!

The best part is that I’ve created a no-brainer opportunity for you to get the coaching, practical support and mindset help in a way and at a price that YOU can afford.  But, I’m only able to offer this to 5 people total (and 1 of those spots is gone already!).

If you are ready to make the most of the remaining 74 days of the year and join forces with me to do so, all you have to do is apply for this crazy-brilliant opportunity by FRIDAY October 21st 2016.  Once your application is in, I’ll be reviewing everything and replying to your offer.

I’m calling this the Make Me An Offer offer!

All you have to do is click the button below and apply!  Easy-peasy!

Now, truth be told I’m not sure if I’ll ever do something like this again so, if this is something you are interested in, please put your offer in ASAP.  I promise I will get back to you as soon as possible!

Remember 74 days is PLENTY of time to create effective change in your life, so why wait until 2017? Let’s get started now.

7 Things I’m Afraid to Tell You…

by

A few years ago, I came across a blog post by another coach titled “Things I’m Afraid to Tell You”. 

At this point, I can’t remember who that was, but I was intrigued by the concept and shared a few things with my tribe that I too was afraid to share and today I’m doing it again.

It’s always incredibly important to me that I be 100% honest and real with you because after all, I am only human.  You may read some of these and find that I am no longer a coach you want to follow or find that I am exactly the kind of coach you want to be a part of your life.  Either way, I know it’s all for the best.

So, without further ado (and more procrastinating) here we go!

  • I just pulled the plug on the 60-Day Momentum Mastermind.  – You know that new blended program I put together and announced last week that was supposed to begin on Monday?  Yep, I pulled the plug.  The truth is, it was something I have been wanting to do for a long time (create a blended program), but something didn’t feel quite right about it.  So, instead of trying to revive it in some way, I’m pulling the plug.  There is a part of me that is slightly embarrassed, yet also incredibly relieved about it because it frees up a bit more time for me to do something else. (More on that soon.)
  • I’m afraid of what you think of me.  There are times when I really overthink what I want to say to you because my intention is never to offend you or rock the boat.  There are times when I wonder if I’m “selling” too much and creating too many offers and I wonder what you might think of me because of it.  (On a deep level, I guess I just want to be liked.)  But, then I remember why I am in business to begin with.  I love what I do (most of the time) and if I am creating offers (or pulling the plug) there is a very good reason for it and who am I to keep that from YOU, especially if it’s something that could help you?  This is also the reason I was hesitant to share an article I wrote on race that was recently published on ElephantJournal.
  • Sometimes I get bored with my business.  Now let me be clear, I am NEVER bored with the people I work with…ever.  But, there have been times (ahem-recently) when I have felt a bit bored with myself and my business.  I am the type of person that likes to shake things up and get really excited about new things I am offering in general and if it’s feeling a bit stagnant, my inspiration goes down the tubes and I have to regroup and reset myself.  The truth is, I’ve been feeling that way for a bit now and I’m just itching to bring in some fresh new energy to shake things up.  (Again, more on that later.) To be clear, I LOVE what I do, I love who I work with, but sometimes I don’t love the way I do things, so I have a need to switch it up.
  • Sometimes I don’t feel like “enough”.  When my mind-gremlins start kicking up, I get so stuck in my head about things that I start believing the crappy thoughts that come up and I feel like I’m not enough.  Not smart enough, strong enough, clear enough, good enough, blah, blah, blah.  Most recently, I felt like I wasn’t a good enough mother.  I’m human.  Sometimes these are quiet thoughts in the back of my mind and other times they can take me to my knees and make me cry uncle, but I always come out the other side stronger, because I know that this is just another part of the up-leveling process for me.
  • I am a lesbian.  I realize that many of you know this about me already and it shouldn’t even be a “thing”.  I get that, but I’d be lying to you if I told you that even after being ‘out’ for close to 15 years now (plus being married to the woman of my dreams and having a family too) that there isn’t a part of me that worries what other people might think of me because of this fact.  I also realize that for some people, this is an utter and total deal-breaker.  (There is an unsubscribe button at the bottom of this email, should this be a deal-breaker for you.  No hard feelings at all and I wish you all the love in the world.) Moving on…
  • I am a card-carrying (not really) woo-woo coach & intuitive.  All this means is that I am deeply in touch with my intuition (something we all have) and I am able to feel into the circumstances, energy, and “stuff” that clients have going on pretty easily.  It’s my super-power an while it’s not something I try to explain (and to be honest, most of my clients don’t really ask) it’s 100% how I work.  I also often use oracle cards with clients and occasionally will offer to do readings for people if that’s something they are into.  (If that’s something you’re interested in let me know because I LOVE doing them.). The truth is, all of this spiritual and “woo-woo” stuff makes me the coach I am and it helps me, help you.
  • Sometimes, life gets the best of me.  Basically what that means is that there are times when I need to retreat, regroup, rehash, revive, and refresh my mind so I can show up and be the best for you.  It is often accompanied by general shit going on in my personal world (like this past month my wife had surgery, Mercury Retro gave me a run for my money, and I was totally off of my mindset practice.) that takes me off track.  For the most part, I don’t like to share too much of that with you because, well-who likes to talk about that stuff?  I mean, it’s the stuff that makes me relate-able, and human I suppose, but it’s just not fun to share.  That, and part of me doesn’t want you to think less of me because of it.  (I’m also a recovering, perfectionist.)

So, I guess that’s it for this round and honestly it wasn’t as bad as I thought it might be.  I expect there may be some people who leave my tribe because of one or more of what I listed above and to you I wish you all the best.

For those of you who are sticking around-I’m so happy for you to be here!  Stay tuned because the next email you receive from me is SO exciting and you don’t want to miss it!!!

P.P.S. If you LOVE being a part of my tribe and you’ve been wanting to work with me 1:1 (and you aren’t currently), hit reply to this email OR sign up for a free 30-minute consultation and I’ll give you the inside scoop on this very-super-secret-squirrel-crazy thing I’m cooking up that I’ll be announcing to the public in a few days.

Why I ditched my gratitude practice…

Gratitude is the new black, or so it seems.

No matter what it is that you want to create in your life, it seems like gratitude is the answer.

Do you want to live a happier more fulfilling life? Be grateful.

Do you want to manifest the life of your dreams? Be grateful.

Do you want to create an unshakeable mindset that leads to success for years to come? Be grateful.

Gratitude is no doubt, one of the most powerful practices you can use to transform your life. It’s a practice that has been around for ages and everyone from Oprah to Deepak Chopra recommend developing a regular daily practice to turn what you have into more than enough.

Unfortunately, the whole gratitude thing has never really worked for me (and believe me, it’s not from a lack of trying).

I’m generally a very grateful person and when it comes to gratitude, I’ve done it all. I’ve tried everything from writing 3-5 things I’m grateful for each night in a dedicated gratitude journal to creating a list of 100 things I’m grateful for each day as part of a 30 day challenge. Unfortunately each time I tried, I only managed to keep the practice going for a few days. No matter what I tried, I just couldn’t get the practice to stick and I felt like something was wrong with me.
