Impact For The Culture

To Whoever Needs It…  We suffer more often than we allow the world to see. It’s not easy to talk about and most people won’t understand what you are going through so you keep quiet and act like everything is okay… even when it’s not. I wanted to take the time to share that you aren’t alone and you don’t have to continue to suffer in silence. If you haven’t done this already, please take the time t...

I wanted to share my experience job hunting because it was an important reminder that I still have work to do. It’s okay to be talented and still want to progress.

I grew quickly because I was qualified but I was not qualified for the ini...

In this episode ‘Take Care of Yourself” I bring awareness to the challenge of balancing your goals and long to-do lists with the reality of how you feel and what you actually get done.

Not finishing everything you need to and not accomplishing all you hope to accomplish can be discou...

Keep working towards your goals. Continue to push the agenda forward. Don’...

In this episode I talk about the importance of continuing to push forward. “Keep Going!” Is an important message I have to tell myself daily. In the midst of storms, stress, life, blessings and burdens… it’s easy to get overwhelmed and lose track of what needs to be done to live our best lives. We can get distracted and retract. I am constantly battling myself and my bad habits. If you struggle to...

This episode is dedicated to all of the amazing, resilient, hard working, big dream having people that struggle and have experienced trauma throughout life.

A new year is a new opportunity to live your best life. It is an opportunity to...

How can we organize our life in a way where we are eliminating stress and...

This episode, ‘Didn’t Go According To Plan’ was motivated by an experience I had last week while attempting to record a new podcast episode.

I couldn’t focus and follow the outline. I abruptly stopped mid recording and said “I’...

“Resistance To Results” was motivated by a slow week I had recently. I was tired, unmotivated, not feeling well and emotionally drained. As I let the days pass without being as productive as I wanted to be, I began to get increasingly stressed and my productivity continued to decline.

Suffering looks different depending on where you’re at in life. I was reminded of that recently and wanted to share my perspective with you.
