Connecting Mind to Heart

Recently in our chat Good Sh*t Happens we spoke about keeping your head up and seeing the positive within the negative.  Today I thought we could chat about how to heck to do that when your mind is saying “be afraid, be very very afraid.”  You could be having these thoughts about the current state of…

Love is the Answer

There is so much about life these days that is stressful. We could talk about the pace in which people are moving and the lack of boundaries between work and personal lives. We could go on and on about the financial pressures that people are feeling and the pressure to keep up with the Jones.…

Vulnerability…that evil word.

Vulnerability has been on my mind lately. This summer I went through something that brought this right up into my face for me to see the light of the dark. It is no surprise to me (as this tends to be my MO) I got very sick after the fall out of it all. As…

Love is Everything

Love is Everything.  This is what has been on my mind since we last chatted. It has been a very long time since our last chat.; longer than I would have liked.  My attention has been on other things such as the topic of love.  It all began with seeing this movie in June when…

Never Give Up

Never Give Up. Recently I came across this statement  when making a Vision board with a friend a couple weeks ago.  It was SO MUCH FUN picking colors, images and statements that make you go YES! Once I saw this slogan and know that it had to take center stage for obvious reasons. We ALL have…
