Earn Your Happy

One of the most effective life hacks that I’ve discovered is this thing called Parkinson’s Law, which says, “work expands to fill the time available for its completion.” In other words, if you give yourself a month to do something, you’ll take every single day of that month to get it done. But, if you give yourself a week to do that same task, guess what? It will only take you seven days to finish...

Where are you skipping the opportunity to not only get better at something, but also find your edges? Chris and I have been exploring this question lately, especially as it relates to our workouts.

Listen in to hear more...

With all the traveling and events that I’ve had going on lately, my healthy routines and habits have fallen to the wayside. Instead of sitting in that discomfort, I decided to challenge myself to a week without sugar, which has given me the reset that I need to get back on track and finish this year super strong.  This experience has reinforced the idea for me that if you aren’t hitting your goals...

There’s something that you need to recommit to in order to take back control over your life. I know something popped into your head when you read that, so what is it?

One of the biggest shifts that we’ve gone through in our businesses is learning how to collapse time by collaborating with experts instead of trying to muscle through everything on our own.

One of the most common questions that I get in my DMs is how to get out of a rut when you’re feeling uninspired and burned out. My biggest piece of advice around that is to be intentional about seeking out inspiration and don’t be afraid to try out a different lane.  I always tune into music, watch a great comedian, or move my body in a way that gets me out of my same old routine. I soak in inspir...

There has been so much resistance in my life lately. I can’t lie, it can feel pretty uncomfortable sometimes. But, Chris and I have made a commitment to consistently step into resistance because we know that we’ll be rewarded for it in the long run.  It can be so tempting to choose the easier, more comfortable option, but once you start training yourself to push through the resistance, all of the...

When you look into the future, you're just inviting in anxiety over something that probably isn't going to happen or isn’t going to feel the way that you think it's going to feel. Instead, you could be living in the present and savoring the moment.

I’m in such a busy season right now and can’t afford to be distracted.

One of the most powerful monthly practices that I have is to sit down and really go through what’s bogging me down and taking up too much of my mental space. It’s the tiny things done consistently that get you closer to your goals. It doesn’t always have to be a giant, scary leap. So, what’s draining your energy? Do you have to schedule that appointment or send that email that you’ve been avoiding...
