Not feeling conviction in some of the things you are doing? Perhaps you have too many cooks in your kitchen and that is leaving you confused and full of uncertainty.    Its time to...

For much of my life I didn’t create boundaries and express what I needed, and what I didn’t need.  This led to resentment. Not just of others, but of myself! When I realized that my resentment was me abandoning myself, I knew that I wanted to work on this area of my life and take ownership of my feelings and learn to create boundaries. Thanks to the work of Nicole LePera - @the.holistic.psychologi...

Of all the questions I get on social media, two of the most common ones lately are all about my cold showers and why I do fasting days.    I once heard Tom Bilyeu speak on the point that in order for confidence to truly grow, we not only must keep our word to ourselves, but those must be with the things we value and that deem as challenging. This is when I knew I needed to step up my game and lean...

It's time to do some assessing when it comes to decisions you are making. Most keep themselves open with too many options and never really decide on something.  They think they have, but then when in a situation, they actually cave and choose something else.

Ever meet someone that just blows you away with their incredible attitude? What’s even more powerful is that I was blown away by Jasna before I even heard her story.

After almost 21 years of rarely speaking about my adoption, and dealing with a lot of shame, here is the follow up to part 1, and the years following the adoption placement.    “Shame hates it when we reach out and tell our story.
