Your reality does indeed come from your perception. And your perception IS a complex bundle of your thoughts, feelings, emotions, past experiences, and expectations – basically, it’s YOU in any given moment.

And depending on which YOU shows up will determine your own reality..

There is a fine line between being polite and adopting a fake persona of pretense and the latter? Yeah, that can become habitual to the point of self-harm. Even worse? Adopting that fake you for too long means you will not only become disconnected from your true (and best) self, but you’ll start to lose what you put that mask on for to begin with: credibility.

According to quantum physics, our thoughts are the source of reality. Everything that we see and experience is a product of thought energy. We are all connected through an energy field called the collective consciousness, which responds to our thoughts and emotions by creating reality. Each person’s mind gives rise to its own dimension within which they experience different forms of matter and energy; this is how we end up with subjective experience in an objective world.

None of us want to admit feeling afraid, but the truth is that fear is a very real obstacle when it comes to having the confidence we need to achieve our goals.

I’m not talking about dark-basement-steps-fear. I’m talking about the things that make you feel scared, anxious, stressed, and uncertain. You know, normal things, like being scared that you didn't do an excellent job on your last presentation…

Deeply embedded belief systems can’t be helped with self-help-platitudes.

Regarding the experiences we have in life, whether work-related or personal, we always have 2 basic choices:

1. We can let our preconceived assumptions, notions, knee-jerk reactions, and emotions control what we think, feel, and say; or

2. We can gain control over ourselves, our minds, and all of those -tions and choose happiness and positivity.

Without forgiveness, there can be no trust. Without trust, there can be no leadership.

You know that old saying, heavy is the head that wears the crown? There is a direct relationship between effective leadership and responsibility that can easily be overlooked in a corporate structure of titles, management, and business hierarchy.

What are you waiting for? To make that big change, to take action to follow your dreams, to finally start taking steps to Make It (whatever “IT” is for you) Happen?

Mel Robbins says almost everything in our lives can change for the better if and when we start taking action…

TikTok is the latest tech giant to be taken to task by its employees for what is being described as toxic workplace culture and an emphasis on “relentless productivity.” According to The Independent, TikTok staff claim to be suffering burnout and severe mental distress due to its punishing workplace culture. Exhausting hours and sleep deprivation are common amongst staff, while some employees said they averaged 85 hours of meetings per week!

For some people, Mother’s Day can be a painful reminder of loss. And for those who haven’t lost their mom or access to their children, it could still be a difficult time – memories of disconnection, instability, dysfunction, and more can certainly be brought to the surface. For the rarest – those women who have managed to reach the age of motherhood themselves without a) losing their own moms and b) a past better left undisturbed – this can STILL be a tough season fraught with disappointment, unmet desires, and additional stress.

If you’ve been around here long, you know I’m a big fan of flipping the script, rewriting the narrative, taking control of the story (you get the idea), so it shouldn’t surprise you that when it comes to discouragement… I’m all about using it and then leaving it behind.

News flash: we’ve all been existing in a state of heightened stress and anxiety – yes, even in this post-pandemic “new” world where everything was supposed to go back to normal. In fact, the should and supposed-to aspect of our day-to-day realities make it even harder: if you feel like you should be back to normal even though you don’t feel back to normal, you just pile guilt on top of the stress and anxiety you’re already feeling.

I’ve written about hustle culture here before and its insidious way of glamorizing too-little-sleep, never-getting-away, over-working, and never, ever stepping away from the grind. It’s easy to write about it, but not so easy to recognize the ways this kind of culture has crept into my own life and approach to work/success.

I don’t even have to know you to know that you want to have some kind of success in your life. While you may have already achieved your version of success on some level, you know, deep down, you were made for more – you want more; you need more; you feel the passion for more. This doesn’t necessarily mean more money (though no shame if it does), it can simply mean more of how you define success for yourself, for your family, and for your community.

I received a message this week from someone who asked if I could send her my weekly blog articles via DM. She was a little sheepish: I know you send them via email, but I just can’t face my inbox. I know the feeling! I have a few thousand unread emails myself. Not to mention the Slack messages, Asana messages, Basecamp messages, text messages, DMs across platforms… the list goes on.

We all have too much information coming our way…

Everyone has been working so hard on their messages of anti-productivity lately. (See what I did there?)

Anyone else notice the current popularity of less-productivity, more ease, a slower approach to moving back into the frenetic pace of real-work-life alongside the typical New Year detox messaging? Detox from dopamine! Detox from productivity! Detox from alcohol, and digital, and…

One of the tools I rely on daily for guidance is tarot and oracle cards. Tarot cards are a vehicle to give guidance, and as shamans like to say, “medicine” around what is happening in your personal orbit: love, money, career, goals, and general life path. Through my intuitive connection with my cards, I’m able to access my “higher coach” so to speak.

I’m sure I don’t have to remind you: 2022 is just days away and with the calendar flip, we can expect the annual rhetoric about making and keeping New Year's Resolutions.

We make pledges to lose weight, make more money, exercise more, spend more time with family, start that business, take that class, etc. All of our most noble endeavors and loftiest desires come flooding to the surface on January 1st.

Our intentions are good. Our efforts are sincere. So, why are these resolutions most often abandoned by February?
