Here's to the criers. I had a bad day last week. Nothing significantly terrible happened... nothing that would leave any lasting scars... but nonetheless, it was a tougher day than usual. We all have them. I felt compelled to do a video journal of what I was feeling and before really knowing the reason behind my action, I posted it on Facebook. My "Ugly Cry" video generated quite a wide variety of responses. Some commented on my bravery, others made it known that the video made them uncomfortable. How do you react when you see someone else cry? ⬇︎Watch the video below and leave a comment⬇︎ "There is sacredness in tears. They are not a mark of weakness, but of power. They … [Read more...]
How to Think Like a Parent Powerhouse
Parents, you really are SUPER HUMAN! I have to keep reminding you of this because I don't think you QUITE GET IT. It seems every day I am talking with a mom or a dad who is feeling incompetent and insufficient. These same days I see resilient parents problem-solving and thinking creatively to make significant improvements in the world. Either there is a large divide between the exceptional and the inadequate, or there is still a large percentage of you who are still not giving yourself the credit that you deserve. It's all about the MINDSET. Being aware of your own mood is half the battle. Learning to adjust yourself and react in a positive manner is the other half. How self-aware are … [Read more...]
Tormentors Make the Best Mentors
The toughest moments are the ones that GROW YOU... You know what I am talking about. The growth moments... the ones that we appreciate more than anything once it's all over and we can look back with a good laugh and an "Aha!" --- but while you are still in it, you feel like clawing your own eyes out. My worst "mommy" moments are the teachable ones for me and my little guys. We are so totally in this together, and we make a great team...but we certainly have our fair share of dark times. Look for the lesson Without the dark times, we wouldn't strive for the good ones. Whenever you find yourself getting twitchy and tormented, open up your consciousness to received guidance from the … [Read more...]
Emotional Family Fitness
Power Up Your Inner Healing Potential! About 15 years ago I woke up with a crick in my neck. What I expected to be a small annoyance that would diminish in a few days lasted an incapacitating and excruciating long 4 years. Like a cancer, the pain spread to the other side of my neck and into both shoulders and became so unbearable that often I couldn't work or drive. Desperate for reprieve, I spent an ungodly amount of money on pain institutes, chiropractors, massage therapists and acupuncturists. Nothing worked. After 4 years, I began to forget what it was like to live in a pain-free body. The pain had BECOME me. I never would have believed it. Eventually the cure showed up … [Read more...]
Awaken Your Inner Rebel
Your Inner Rebel is BEGGING to come out and play! What does this mean? For some of you, being rebellious might mean saying "no" to overworking yourself and coming to everyone else's aid. It might mean looking internally and defining--- on your own terms --- what happiness means TO YOU. Finding that rebellious side might be just what you need to kick conformity to the curb and take ownership of your 2016! It's common for modern parents to become so engulfed in the tasks of parenthood that they forget to nurture themselves. This is not good a good thing. This is serious, people! Some parents, when asked what they are personally passionate about don't even remember how to answer the … [Read more...]

Earn the Cash without the Commute!
Escaping the Rat Race For many parents, home is where the heart is. If you have ever wondered about an easier way to bring home the bacon... one that didn't involve unbearable bosses, long commutes and expensive childcare...you've picked a great time to wonder. Now more than ever, the desire to work from home is a sign of the times. Parents are fed up with having little say in how they spend their time and they are no longer willing to sacrifice their precious family time for a paycheck. Trends have changed the way that we think about work and its effect on our lives. Corporations who were once skeptical of letting their employees have the freedom to work from a home office have since … [Read more...]
How to be Healthy AND Happy during the Holidays
The choice to DEPRIVE or DELIGHT yourself... It's the season of parties, eating yourself into a coma and cookie exchanges galore. Why does it feel like we have to choose between the either/or of torturing our physical bodies or denying them any fun during the most celebrated time of the year? For 10 months out of the year, I am committed to a very healthy lifestyle. During the last 2 months of the year, I am equally committed to the exact opposite. It's the only time that I eat and drink whatever I want without the worry of the carb, caloric or fat content. I usually pay for it with an extra 6 pounds... which is what I expect going in...but is it REALLY worth it? You can have it... but … [Read more...]
Parental Shagology… Let’s Get it On.
Are our kids... Obstructing our Couplehood? Before you blame those little intimacy interrupters for taking away your "just us" time, statistics show that the longer we are married, the less frequently we do it. So while finding yourself in bed next to your partner year after year is important, proximity isn’t everything. Even if you are getting it on several times a week, marital sex loses its heat over time. It's okay. EVERYTHING loses heat over time. As human beings we become ho-hum about just about everything in our lives. Anything that might be thrilling at first (new car, new job, new house, new toys) lessens as our nervous system adapts so that new thing isn’t so stimulating … [Read more...]
Are Distractions Derailing your life?
Shiny Objects ? Look away! Distractions can destroy your very best intentions and leave you wondering, “What the #%@& happened?” Over time, the impact on your business and your life can be disheartening…or devastating.
