Do you fear change, or do you face it head on?  Change can be scary, but it is absolutely necessary for growth. Don’t let the idea of change give you anxiety.

It is a necessary part of our journey.    https://mooseletoe.wixsite.com/melissaoatman https://mooseletoe.wixsite...

Do you find it difficult to make decisions?  Do you doubt your decisions?  Today I give you some tips about how to make decisions without letting your emotions take over. 

Everyone falls sometimes in life.  When you fall, you have a choice.  You can either stay down and continue the negative self-talk, or you can rise up and speak your truth.  Everything that happens to us is a test or an opportunity to see how we will react.  It's much easier to give up and put yourself down. Your true strength lies in your reaction.  Will you stay down, or will you rise up?

The term soulmate can be very confusing.  What exactly is a soulmate, and what is his or her purpose.  Soulmates are usually souls that we have made an agreement with to come here and learn a lesson with.  They can reveal in us our shadow side or the things in us that we don't see that need to be healed.  I talk about this and more in today's episode.   https://mooseletoe.wixsite.com/melissaoatman...
