Back in 2015 I wrote this blog post sharing inspiring Universal Messages that I found hidden in some kid’s movies I had been watching with my son at the time. 

One quote in particular has always hit me right in the heart every time I hear it…

Movie:  The Croods:

Quote: (Dad)”Those rules. They kept us ALIVE.” (Daughter) “That wasn’t LIVING…That was just NOT dying!”

Can you relate?

I think while many of us have had a lot more time at home, we’ve also had a lot more time to truly think about our lives.  We’ve had time to really look at what’s working for us and what’s not.  We are seeing things in a new light and some are asking some really big, transformative questions. 

Things like…

Am I where we want to be in my life?

Is this all there is for me?

Am I truly living the life I desire?

What else is possible for me?

But the power of transformative questions isn’t in just asking them.  The power lies in answering them honestly and then *deciding* to do something different. 

I’ve been hearing a lot of people say that they are feeling stuck, stagnant and that they are just going through the motions of life, without truly living…and if that’s YOU, it’s time for a change.

It’s time to DECIDE to do something different.
It’s time to DECLARE what you truly want.
It’s time to COMMIT to the big, scary life you crave.

And for some…it’s time to get the support and guidance for your journey ahead.

The thing I’m realizing more and more is that we are capable of so much more than our current minds realize and if we are really honest about what *living* an amazing life means to us and we allowed ourselves to pursue it, we would see just how limitless we are. 

So let me ask you this..
 

Are you truly living right now or are you just going through the motions? 

Grab your journal and get really honest with yourself.  

Are you living your best life?
Are you living an inspired life?
Are you living a life you love?

If not, I encourage you to make a decision *today* to change it.  Decide, declare, and commit to going all in for your life because that is what we are here to do!

And if you find that it’s time for you to get some support for guidance, accountability and the tools to breakthrough the beliefs that are keeping you small, hit the link below and let’s chat.

Have you ever had one of those moments in your life where you look back and can almost pinpoint the exact moment when things shifted for you?  It’s like that decision, choice or moment in time was a pivotal moment where everything after, was changed forever more? 

I had one of those moments last week as I was hit with a HUGE (and in some ways surprising) realization that I was doing something that I am constantly coaching my clients through, just about every day.
 

I realized that for the past 2-3 years or so, I’ve been playing, thinking, & living in a very small way when it comes to my life & business. 

Now, to be fair, I’ve actually had a few mini-realizations like this in the past year or so and have made small shifts to step up, but none of them have been as big or hit me as hard as this one.  This realization literally brought me to my knees – ugly crying and all. 
 

After a conversation with my wife about our vision for the future, I was hit with the realization that somewhere along the line I’d allowed my big dreams to get clouded by what I *thought* were reasons I couldn’t or wasn’t ready to move to the next level in my business, income, & life.  It turns out those “reasons” they were indeed just excuses. 🤐

Excuses that I allowed myself to hide behind (for years) because they were “real”  and “true” in my life.

Yes, I’m a mother, wife, and entrepreneur and balancing those roles can often be challenging.  I guess over the years, I allowed the challenging seasons to evolve into an ever-lasting belief that maybe I can’t be, have and do it all. Maybe, I only get to be the best at one of those roles & I have to choose which one is most important.  

The truth is…that’s just a bunch of BS that I allowed myself to believe because it was *easy* and comfortable. (Yes, even coaches are continuing to learn along the way.)

So, what did I do? Well, after a big purge of some pretty shitty judgements and emotions, I reminded myself that with every upheaval comes an opportunity to up-level and I get to choose again.

I get to rewrite the story of my beliefs around who I am and how I show up in the world.  I’m not a one-trick pony who only gets to be good at one thing.  I actually *can* have it all and it’s about time I remember that and practice it on a daily basis. 

So, I’m getting back to the basics of what I teach.  I’m spending time each day digging into my next-level mindset and living, breathing and being from that place.  I’m also tapping back into what I know to be true for all of us and that is…

We get to be, have, and do whatever we desire & believe!

No more excuses.
No more “reasons”.
No more hiding.
No more limitations. 

That part of the story is over. 
 

It’s time to step into that version of ourselves who knows how magical life can be.  The part of us that knows that we get to want what we want and we get to have it too.  It’s time. 

In just over a week that I’ve been really embracing this new level & getting back to basics, I’ve been hit with some pretty incredible inspiration for new things I’ll be creating & sharing with you in May so stay tuned for that. (I’m so excited because I promise it is *so* good!)

In the meantime, I am going to be sharing some of my next-level tips, tools and strategies in the MindPower Membership group on Facebook for the month of May in addition to the weekly journal prompts, group readings, live trainings, open coaching calls + access to all of the content/trainings from April and the best part is you get to *pay what you want* for the month of May.  Feel free to join us here. 

With that said, I hope you know that wherever you are on this journey, you always have a choice to change the story. As a coach, I choose to share the good, the bad, and the ugly with you because it’s a normal part of the process & I hope to inspire you to continue to choose again.  

As Abraham-Hicks says “You can’t get it wrong and you never get it done.”

Keep going friends.  This is just the beginning of an incredible new-level for us all and I can’t wait to see what unfolds in May. 

Questions/comments? Post them below!

What a week!  I don’t know about you but this week has been full of tons of lessons, realizations and opportunities to up-level and it reminded me of all the things I’ve been learning in the last 6 weeks or so. 

I started tracking some of the things I’ve learned about myself and life over the last few weeks and thought I’d share my top 20+ things I’ve learned.

In no particular order I’ve learned that…

• Dark chocolate Oreos are worth every calorie
• Netflix is a genius invention & I love it
• Showing up for others changes everything, so do it intentionally & do it often
• Homeschool is not my jam (and I’m ok with that)
• Sunshine is soul medicine & cures almost any mood
• Moving my body daily is a mood/game/life changer
• Crying is more than ok & is expected during times like these
• My mental bandwidth isn’t what it used to be
• Yoga is life right now
• Quiet time is critical for creative ideas to emerge (aka I need more quiet)
• Books are currently saving my sanity
• Structure/routine goes a long way, especially now
• I miss people
• There’s no “right” way to get through a pandemic, you’re doing just fine
• A hot shower has magical powers to clear the mind
• There is so much to be grateful for right now
• My inner power still works even and especially now
• The Universe has my back, no matter what
• Some days are really hard, but I can do hard things
• There’s no going back to what was normal before this
• I get to decide the new normal that I am creating right now & so do you
• There’s always room for more grace
• I’ve been playing, living, & believing way too small for where I’m headed (more on that soon!)

While there are plenty of potential frustrations that come from everything that is happening (and not happening) right now, there is also so much to be grateful for. 

I’m seeing a feeling a massive shift happening in my own life and the lives of my clients and I can’t wait to see what lies on the other side of all this.

With that said, I want to invite you to think a bit about what you’ve learned in the last few weeks and how that is shaping you now and in the future.

Despite how it might feel, you do have an opportunity to create, transform, and expand your life even with everything going on. 

So, if you’re ready to make a change to shift, create and cultivate a new reality for your life and you KNOW the time is now to begin, hit the link below and let’s chat.

I am opening 3 spots in May for custom 1:1 coaching program to help you do just that & I have one with your name on it. 

I wanted to jump in here quickly and share a message I received last week that I believe applies to us all.  In fact, I know it does and I have this funny feeling that while this message feels a bit “delayed” in writing, it’s actually all in perfect timing…just like everything else is at the moment <—or so I’m choosing to trust and believe.

As I was working my way through some (we’ll just call it “interesting”) tech issues with my computer last week, I was getting pretty frustrated and got a bit lost in my emotions. 

Truth be told, I haven’t done my mindset work properly in weeks and I could tell that was part of the reason I fell down the rabbit hole of emotions.

At one point during the computer debacle, I decided to take the rest of the day off and tried to give myself a mental break from the “problem”. 

When I did, I received the most perfect download that I needed more than anything in that moment and it was that little wise voice inside that often speaks to me when I get in one of those “rabbit hole moments” and it said…

“Your inner power always works, no matter what conditions you are experiencing.  You just have to remember to tap into it.”

There was a split second where my ego wanted to argue with that little voice because surely she didn’t understand that my computer was having issues at the worst possible time and there was virtually no way to fix it..or so I thought at the time.  

Luckily I’ve done this work long enough to know better than to argue with that little voice, so instead I sat with that thought for a moment and allowed its meaning to wash over me. What I found was…it was right (and it usually is.)

Part of the challenge I was having had to do with my attention and focus being on the “conditions” (aka the computer screen that wasn’t working properly) and the story I was telling about it.  

The other part of the challenge had to do with the fact that I had been so disconnected from that inner power for the past few weeks because I wasn’t doing the stuff that works.  

I wasn’t meditating, journaling & taking specific time for my mindset each day.  I wasn’t choosing to respond versus react to the uncertainty of life each day.  And if I’m honest, I wasn’t doing enough self-care.  

So, in addition to learning this much-needed lesson, I believe it’s come up because it’s a reminder for us all. 

YOUR inner power works…no matter what the conditions are.  The question is…are you connected to it? 

If not, maybe this is the message you needed to hear to tap back into it. 

However you choose to do that is up to you, but I encourage you to carve out some specific time each day to connect to that place within you that knows all is well. 

The part of you that is calm and at peace as change is constantly unfolding around us and whispers exactly what you need to hear in the moment. 

While it’s unlikely for us to “always” be connected & never fall down the rabbit hole, being intentional about that connection is key especially now. 

If you’re not sure where to begin, journaling is a good place to start.  In fact, I put together a 21-Day Guidebook with everything you need to get started.  

However, if you’re looking for a bit more support and 1:1 guidance through the process & you’d like to chat about how we can work together, feel free to book a free consultation here.

I’m not gonna lie..the past few weeks have been a bit of a roller coaster to say the least.

My energy has been up and down, my focus has been scattered, and my anxiety has been creeping back in more than I’d like it to.

I’ve cried more times than I can count out of frustration and while I have so much to be grateful for right now…it’s been tough to stay in that mindset every single day.

I want to tell you I have it all figured out and that I have the master plan for getting through the uncertainty we are all dealing with right now…but I can’t.

We are wading through the moments, dealing with our “stuff” as best we can and learning as we go.

What I *can* tell you are the few things I am continuing to do…even when I don’t feel like it that have helped me pull myself up by the bootstraps when I need it the most.

–> Moving my body…EVERY.DAMN.DAY. Truth be told I don’t want to workout most days. I’m not even moving at the same time everyday like I typically do and that’s been ok for the moment. BUT, I can tell you that every day I do it, I feel 100% better than I did before. Truthbomb: *Movement is magic and if you currently aren’t moving your body get to it. * 

–>Feeling the feels. Everyday is different. Some days I feel good…maybe even great. Other days I feel totally flat and just sad all the way around. I try my best to allow myself to feel the feels and *be* with my emotions as much as I can. It helps me process them a bit and be kind to myself. Truthbomb: Feelings just want to be recognized & now is the time to do just that.

–> Give myself the gift of grace. Some days I do little more than get the absolute necessities done around the house and in my business and I’m trying really hard to give myself grace during those times. I am an achiever and I like to get shit done and feel productive, so when I’m not in that space I can often feel frustrated and anxious. The gift of grace has saved me immensely recently. Truthbomb: We all deserve the gift of grace, especially right now. 

–> Showing up to serve. While my days (and nights) have been a bit more scattered than usual, one thing that helps keep me going is to show up and serve. I do this work because it’s my calling and I absolutely LOVE it.  It’s also the very thing that instantly puts me into flow and helps me rise above all of the worry and doubt that might otherwise creep in.  My client calls, video messaging & oracle readings I’ve been doing have been a key part of me navigating this space we are in.  Truthbomb: When you open your hear to give, you also open your heart to receive far beyond your wildest imagination.

I guess the moral of the story is that we are all dealing with things in our own way and depending on how long this lasts, we may all be going through a variety of emotions and coping mechanisms. So, be kind to yourself and give yourself the gift of grace…it’s a game-changer.
