ALERT: You are an adult. You no longer need someone else’s permission. You can give yourself permission. Stop waiting for someone else to give you permission to DO, to BE, to HAVE what you want. As an adult you get to do that. Give yourself permission to: Ask for what you want. Make a mistake. […]
What do you want? One of the biggest problems that my new clients struggle with is that they have no idea what they want. Or they make the answer to that question above too vague. I want to make as much money as possible. I want to be living the dream. I want to […]
I’m blown away at the life I’ve created for myself. If you don’t know my story, I was a girl who once believed “she was a loser born on loser street.” I grew up poor in an alcoholic home. My parents really loved us … however there was just a lot, a whole lot, of […]

I was heading to sleep when in my inbox I received an invitation. I signed up. I spent the next hour on my iPad surfing around a bunch of boards. I still would not commit to post anything. [My perfectionism can get in the way at the silliest times]. Finally at 11:14 pm I turned […]
Many of my clients are overachievers who have an “all or nothing” mindset. They want to do things perfectly. And if they can not do it pefectly they decide not to do it at all. Doing it all is NOT sustainable. You will NOT be able to do it ALL, all of the time. If […]
