Happy Health

Hustle, hustle, hustle.  It’s a work used a LOT these days.  Like if you aren’t hustling, you are doing it wrong.   What if that hustle all the time mentality leads to you feeling burnt out, starts affecting your health and causes you crash? What’s the alternative? Not doing anything? Nope.  It’s still working hard and moving forward.  But there’s a BIG difference bet...

Have you ever had that feeling that things just need to change?  That you just need to shed what you are doing and do something else? We’ve all felt that.  I felt that when I was an accountant.  My friend, Brenda, felt that after years in the HR industry.  And we both were moved to make a change.  In this episode, we discuss how to follow through with that feeling, use the...

I used to be messy as hell. My room as a kid used to drive my mom crazy.  And one of my college roommates would cringe at the ginormous pile of laundry that accumulated by my bed.  I would lose things all the time.  I would drive myself crazy digging through my mess to find something I needed.  It was the worst.  I finally said F this…I don’t want to be a messy person anym...

Can positivity be toxic? Short answer..yes.  Anything can work against you if used in a way that doesn't lead to growth.  Or if it's used to avoid or make an excuse.  Positivity is no different.  In this episode, we discuss what toxic positivity is, how to avoid it and more! 

Want to know what's keeping you from building lasting habits? Jumping from bubble to bubble.  We wait until the "perfect condition" and THEN start.  And yes...this can and usually does bring us a result.  Yet for many it can hold us back as during those conditions, we don't learn to handle the obstacles...so when we are hit with them later, it throws us off track.  In this epis...

 “You just have to do what you love” Have you ever heard someone say that and think, “cool story bro…but I still don’t know what to do! You want to move to the next step…yet you are unclear on what that next step is.  You want to have a career or business that ignites you and fills you with passion but you are clueless about how to figure it out.  I have definitely been there. ...

 You ever get stuck between listening to your gut versus listening to your mind? It can be a tough situation.  I know I have been there a million times…and here’s what I know…when I follow my gut, it’s the right path every time...when I follow my mind…things can get hairy.  Your intuition is a powerful thing. It’s there for a reason.  Trouble is sometimes that gut feeling makes...

I should be doing that.  You ever say that to yourself? Or to someone else.  You are working towards a goal or wanting to accomplish something and you find yourself stuck between what you SHOULD be doing and you just flat out not doing it.  Now on top of not doing the damn thing, you feel guilty.  What a great place to be right?? 😵‍💫 And what ends up happening most times is w...

Want to know my secret to a happy, strong 23-year-old relationship with my husband? We work on it just like we do our businesses, our health and wellness and anything else that we want to grow and progress in.  Do we have ups and downs? Damn straight.  But we're known each other for almost 30 years and we can STILL talk for hours on end and love being with each other.  Well, I'm giv...

You know why progress not perfection is a great motto...despite how cliche it is? Because as you progress, as you grow, as you learn, as you get better, the "perfection" line moves. And if you focus on reaching a point that is constantly moving, you will drive yourself crazy. However, if you embrace the fact that the line is moving as you evolve, you will come to LOVE the progress you make every d...

You finally got your act together and then BOOM! You don't.  Now you feel overwhelmed and like you can barely keep your head above water.  Yup...I know how that feels!  First and foremost you are certainly not alone.  It may feel like everyone around you is just skipping along and you are over here just like WTF? Trust me...others are feeling it too!  Second, in this episo...

Do you need more stuff or less stuff? On one hand, a ton of stuff can cause clutter...which for most is STRESSFUL. Who the hell wants that? However, on the other hand, I can make a strong case why having MORE of the SAME exact item can make your less stressful. So how the hell do you tell the difference.  Well you listen to my latest podcast! 🤣

"I wish I had learned this earlier" Have you ever learned something that completely changes the game for you? Yet you have regrets, frustrations, anger at yourself for NOT learning it years ago? Yup. I know I've been there! 😬 😬 😬 It's common. It will happen. And we can't exactly STOP the thoughts from popping up. But you can control how you react to it. You can't hop into a time machine and go...

Do you ever pay actual attention to your immune system? I know I didn't for YEARS...until I was always getting sick.  And even after I made major changes in my life, it's something I definitely took for granted until I was smacked in the face with it and HAD to pay attention.  Now, it's ALWAYS at the top of my list of priorities!  My daily habits are in line with keeping my immune s...

You've set your goals. You've set your intentions and targets. But maybe that little voice in your head is already talking crap... It's telling you who you are to think THIS year will be any different from last year when you didn't make much progress. Or maybe you don't have that voice but you are feeling alone in all you want to accomplish. Either way...the answer is you DON'T have to go it alone...

"Don't let  the  concept of change scare you as much as the concept of staying unhappy." Change is what moves us forward.  Change also scares the bejeezus about of many of us.  And that fear keeps up stuck.  It keeps us in a loop that we don't know how to remove ourselves from.  But it's not the change that most people fear, it's the CONCEPT of it.  And once you...

Have you ever sat and really thought about what Happiness means to you? Like legit, sat down and wrote it out.  Not what it should be, not what others want for you but what you truly want? Most people haven't.  It's thought of as this far-off thing that only happens when everything is perfectly aligned.  But what if things are never perfect? What if they are never aligned just right...

It may sound like an oxymoron but in order to do more, you have to make things easy... We all have routines that we follow day in and day out...even if you don't realize it, you have a routine.  Now when you want to add something to your life...maybe learning a new skill, taking a class, etc., it makes sense that you have to find the time AND energy to do it.  Well how do you do that if...

So you have your goals written down.  You are all excited for the new year so you can start crushing them.  But do you have a way to TRACK them? Will you be able to see where you are each week? Each month? I set my goals yearly but  I didn't have a great system for EASILY tracking them....until now.  In this episode, I go through the importance of not just setting goals but tak...

Relentless What do you think when you hear that word? Do you think harsh, cruel, severe? Or do you think consistent, constant, persevering? It actually can be either...it just depends on the person. In this episode, I share a story about a time I wasn't relentless and it led to me losing something very important to me...and how it changed everything for me.        

Are you competitive? My husband and I were discussing this the other day and we were going back and forth on it. Here was the issue...he was saying I am competitive and I disagreed...lol... As I thought more about it, I disagreed because when I hear the word "competitive", I think of being a sore loser or not enjoying the thing you are competing in unless you win. And that's not me. BUT I do like...

It used to be at the bottom of my list. I would get to it when I "had time". But here's what happened... I would rarely find the time to actually get it done. Or I would work myself into a ball of stress and overwhelm and be forced to take a break. Neither of those options was ideal. And it needed to change. In this episode, I go through I make sure to make time for the most important person in my...

Does the early bird get the worm? Or are night owls more productive? I used to wake up super early because I HAD to and even though I am super chipper in the morning when I didn't have to wake up early in the morning anymore, I started to test some things out... What I found was that I actually do my best work from mid-morning to late afternoon and often get a burst of more brain energy around 7 p...
