I’d spent eight years working in the corporate world, and I was finally in a place where I felt I had climbed the ladder to the top of my company. Along with a great job, I was dating a chiropractor who my girlfriends all thought was my perfect match, and I was in the best [...]
“I wish I could paint like you do.” Women say this to me all the time after they see my vivid, abstract paintings. They say they’d love to have a creative outlet, but they just don’t have it in them. I’m going to let you in on a little secret: a few years ago, if [...]
If I were to write a “How to….” on anything personal growth related, I would say: Step 1: Turn it back to you Step 2: Turn it back to you Step 3: Turn it back to you Whatever it is you want to know, turn to you. Whatever it is you want to judge, turn [...]
There are few things more fun and encouraging than creating a vision board. You gather some magazines, a pair of scissors, a poster board, and some tape or glue. Flipping through each periodical, you then cut out images of what you would like to manifest in your future—a promotion, car, dream house, ideal spouse, the [...]

Just stepping along feeling free, clear and fully open to life. I thought to myself how we often feel the need to hold [...]
We are always guided and supported. Do you believe it? One week ago I came across a social media post and connected with my dear friend, Christine Hassler. She was set to be in Costa Rica (for the exact same dates that I would be there!) to lead her adventure-filled, self-love retreat. Fast forward to the [...]
No. (Insert deep breath). I can remember the first time I said it out loud. I didn't realize I had been holding the word "No" hostage inside for so long. As I said it, I felt like my world was about to crumble beneath me. I thought, "Is it ok to say No?" For those [...]
For so much of my life, I've had deep heartfelt emotions for others. Always seeing the potential in others, in life and in myself, yet also feeling a void at the same time.
