When you’re stuck in a relationship you don’t want to be in, a job you dislike, a health issue you didn’t ask for, or a bad financial situation, it can feel like you’re helpless. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by your environment, like everything is out of your hands, and you can’t do anything to [...]
Hello February! The month of love!! February is the month I typically hit the RESET button. Ten years ago, grief and self-doubt unconsciously controlled my life. This Valentine's Day is the 19th Anniversary of my father's death and not a day goes by that I do not think of him. What has changed is that [...]
Life is full of fun and adventures; it is also full of sadness and hardships. Sometimes you feel knocked down and deflated. Sometimes the only answer is to cry. Over the last few years, I’ve learned: How to love the hard choices. It is human nature to control. We want to grip onto our lives [...]

Happy Summer! We are beginning the second half of 2014…Can you believe it?! Have you set up a date with yourself to reflect on the last six months? I have found the last six months to be some of the most incredible and challenging times in my life. As I continue to follow my heart [...]
Last month I headed to Guatemala for the experience of a lifetime. Every day I help individuals connect to their most authentic self and create what they desire in life. That day, I witnessed an entire school system on a mission to teach children this way of living--to find their true calling and explore heart-centered [...]
Seventeen years ago today, I lost the man who brought me into this world and in that moment, a part of me died with him. Surprisingly, I didn’t even know it. The meaning of Valentine's Day seemed forever lost and like most of us who are “doers”, I picked myself up and carried on. My [...]
Happy New Year! I love the energy of a new year. With the new cycle, it symbolizes a collective rebirth and opportunity to create what you most desire.
