What does "self love" really mean? Self love conversations are ubiquitous these days. Everyone's talking about.

I Fasted For 3 Days. Here Are 3 Things I Learned That Can Transform Your Life! 11.05.2021

No matter what your thoughts are on fasting, one thing that's undeniable is that you currently have some sort of relationship with food, with eating and with your emotions, and they are doing a dance together that's either raising your health or lowering it! For me, I love fasting as a tool for healing (physically as well as emotionally, mentally and spiritually). I've been turning to fasting on a...

How To Stop Emotional Manipulation In Relationships 20.04.2021

In what ways do you manipulate in relationships? I asked the question in that way because manipulation is something we can all easily do in relationships. It's not always overt and easy to spot. Sometimes it's very subtle and may not even be something you're consciously aware of. Yet, no matter the type of manipulation, it's evidence of deeply unhealthy feelings and beliefs about ourselves. In tod...

The Morning And Nighttime Routines That Help Me Win At Life (Rebroadcast) 30.03.2021

How intentional are you with the way you start and end your day? For years I completely neglected the importance of my morning and nighttime routines.

What thoughts, feelings and emotions come up for you when you think about your MONEY?

We either feel abundant about money, or scarce...

What Do You Need To Have In Common With Your Partner To Make It Work? 16.02.2021

What makes a relationship work? "Common interests" is a typical answer, and for good reason. It makes sense that we need to have things in common with our partners if we want relationship success.

Monthly Habit Focus: Getting Grounded 02.02.2021

How do you handle the stressors of everyday life? Each one of us encounters stress in life, it's part of the agreement. But not everyone handles it in the same way.
