COVID-19 And Moving Forward
As a world, we are currently in the “middle” of this pandemic. We don’t know how long it is going to last let alone what tomorrow’s stipulations may look like. The brain likes to go to panic or anxiety about things like this because it cannot solve for things that have not happened. It can […]
Why Inflammation Can Make Change Difficult
Some more pieces of the body puzzle recently came together for me as I listened to Drs. David and Austin Perlmutter being interviewed in a very enlightening podcast episode, “How to Detox Your Brain for Clearer Thinking, Deeper Relationships, and Lasting Happiness.” The Perlmutter’s explain how inflammation caused from sugar actually inhibits the function of […]
Your Value Does Not Change With Your Choices
I do a lot of Mental Wellness Life Coaching. The NUMBER ONE lie my clients believe about themselves is: “I’m not good enough.” And when we dig deep to find the root of this lie, it always has to do with some choices they have made and attaching their value to those choices. The truth […]
Perfection and Commitment
We hear the word “perfect” a lot. It can be so damaging because the message is, “I’m not good enough” because I didn’t do such and such without error. The truth is, you’re good enough. Period. You’re valuable because you are a human being on this planet. Period. Nothing you do or don’t do changes that. […]
How Do You Handle Negative Emotions?
I didn’t understand something during the first 22 years of being a mother. I didn’t understand how important–critical–it is to feel emotions. I didn’t understand that emotions are not something to fear. I didn’t understand how to allow myself to feel negative emotions let alone how to teach my children how to feel theirs. Now […]
Creating What You REALLY Want
Creation. It’s a word that maybe isn’t spoken enough. The fact is, we are constantly in creation mode–either positive or negative. When was the last time you created something you REALLY wanted? In Marianne Williamson’s book, “The Law of Divine Compensation,” she states: “It is not our circumstances, then, but rather our thoughts about our […]
Family Dysfunction
I know a lot of courageous people. People who are ready to face the dysfunction of generations. People who are willing to face the flames of the lies they have believed so long about their worth and their value. People who are willing to uncover and pull out the roots of the deep pain they […]
What Do Your Relationships Look Like?
I just read Rachel Hollis’ book, “Girl, Wash Your Face.” It is all about the lies we tell ourselves. She candidly shares how lies have shown up in her life and what she did to recognize them and eradicate them. She asks a very poignant question in chapter 5: “Imagine someone else describing your relationships […]
New Year–New Story So Trauma Loses Its Power
Stories…everyone has one. Everyone. What if this year you could write a new story and have a different life? What if?? What if the traumas of your past lost their power over you? What if, “Instead of obsessing about some traumatic or stressful event that you fear is in your future, based on your […]
You DO Have a Choice
A prevalent theme in my coaching is clients believing they do not have a choice– a choice in the direction their life is going; a choice about who they want in their circle; a choice about creating a different life; a choice about letting go of depression and anxiety. Each choice you and I make […]
