As promised last week, here are the “antidotes” (if you will) to the Top Ten List of why we DO NOT step into our own greatness.
** Limiting beliefs- First it is important to know that everyone has experienced limiting beliefs. So if you are experiencing a few please know that you are not alone and there is definitely not something wrong with you.
A dear friend and colleague of mine once said to me that all beliefs, limiting or otherwise have a pay off. If they didn’t, we would not hold... Read Full Story
I was recently asked how I define greatness…and for me it has always been a feeling or a sense of empowerment and peace. But to put it into words, to me greatness is being who you need to be for you, getting clear on what you want and being willing to take action in order to bring the things you want into your life. (That is where the empowerment and peace comes into play.)
I truly love this topic because it is always really awesome when someone discovers something phenomenal about... Read Full Story
Each year hundreds upon thousands of us start the New Year off by making resolutions with great excitement and the feeling that this year’s going to be different from last. This year, we recommit to following through and we swear that we are going to stick with our resolutions. Well, that seems great in theory for most of us…Then life happens, we get back in to the day-to-day and our New Year’s resolutions often get cast aside like an old, dirty shirt. If this sounds familiar to you don’t be... Read Full Story

An idea was presented to me recently that has since become one of the most useful tools that I posess for dealing with everyday situations or problems that could otherwise throw my day into a tailspin. This idea can probably best be explained through the experience of a coach I know…(this is completely paraphrased, but true)…
“Recently, I had to make a decision as a business owner to fire an employee. The same week... Read Full Story
Scenario: You have been told that you need to find a cool pair of shoes to match a new suit you will be receiving. HOWEVER you have not been told what type of suit it is…could be a bathing suit, a three-piece suit, a warm-up suit. You have no clue, nor do you even know the color, and yet you have to find the right match. OK, I promise, I am not going to talk about how to find the perfect pair of shoes for any outfit or occasion. I will ask that you keep this little scenario in mind as you... Read Full Story
A dear friend came to me the other day with a concern, one that was spurred by The Secret . Trust me when I say that I am not wishing to beat a dead horse here, but her concern was an important one, one worth addressing. The concern was two-fold 1) If you have negative/bad thoughts, bad things will happen. and 2) If you don't manifest the things you want, you are not thinking about them in the right way. It saddens me to think that there could be many people, similar to my friend, who are... Read Full Story
Yesterday I was buying a birthday gift for a dear friend when I stumbled upon this sweet little book based on Lee Ann Womack's song "I Hope You Dance" . Sometimes there are lyrics that resonant and really hit you right where it counts most...in the heart. I hope you never lose your sense of wonder You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger May you never take one single breath for granted Be in a state of curiousity. It is in that state that we learn and see the potential... Read Full Story
Sometimes it is all too easy to blame what goes wrong in our lives on past events and people rather than take responsibility as the sole creator of our own reality.
I raise my hand and admit that I used to blame whatever went wrong in my world on my family, the way I was raised, and the experiences I had growing up. As a matter of fact, when something would go wrong I would say something along the lines of, “If only my mom…” or “If only my dad…” It was not until I was hit upside the... Read Full Story
