9 Steps from Idea to Finished Project: Getting Things Done
Most creatives and creative entrepreneurs are really good at coming up with exciting new ideas but don’t know how to follow through and complete them. That description used to fit me very well, I used to be one of those creatives that would get new ideas for projects every even multiple times a day. But I didn’t understand that as a creative ideas will never stop flowing and in order to do something with those ideas, they needed my immediate or even future focus. Staying focused on one vision till the conclusion of it is not often a skill that creatives learn. As a creative you practiced...
Read More3 Tools to Help you Find your Authentic Self
You may have heard of researcher and storyteller Dr. Brené Brown before. Dr. Brown is a research professor at the University of Houston and she has spent the past thirteen years studying vulnerability, courage, worthiness, and shame. As the author of three #1 New York Times Bestsellers: Rising Strong, Daring Greatly and The Gifts of Imperfection you can find many quotes from her books, writings and TED talks online. This week, I felt really drawn to her quote about ‘Belonging.’ “Belonging is the innate human desire to be part of something larger than us. Because this yearning is so primal,...
Read MoreStop Self-sabotaging your Relationships & Career
Do you have BIG desires but don’t seem to be able to make them come fully to life? Do you feel like you’ve been doing all the right things with little or no success? You get to a certain point and then you can’t get past it without sabotaging or going into fight, flight or freeze? Maybe you are not aware that you are doing it? Here are some examples of what I’m talking about: You’re an artist and you won’t share your work (art, music, poetry, photography, book etc.) publicly because you don’t believe it’s good enough and you don’t want people judging you or you are afraid of great success...
Read MoreHow Much Money Do You need to be Successful?
I want to stir up the pot of your consciousness on the topic of money and ask the question to other healers, coaches, trainers and therapists etc., “How much money do we need to make in our business in order to feel successful and happy?” In the last couple of years I noticed this leap in entrepreneurial marketing from learning relationship sales to marketing to make six or seven figures. At first I thought, “Sure, I want to know how to make that much money.” And then I started feeling like entrepreneurial success was changing focus to the amount of money I made instead of what I and my...
Read MoreDon’t wait for the New Year to find your Authentic You
More than a year ago, I received an e-mail that resonated with me so much, I kept it and contemplated it and I remind myself of it every once in a while. Now that the New Year is right in front of us, I feel it is the best time to re-hash the message of that e-mail. It was about REGRET. I read it in many articles and books and heard it from people. But when you are on your deathbed, you don’t say, “Ah, I wish I would have worked more or tried harder to be the person my mother wanted me to be.” The last thoughts are usually about spending more time with family and friends and the awareness or...
Read MoreWhy Women Don’t Deserve Success
I grew up with a father who left and divorced my mother and her three children, providing no child support and yet traveling around the world. My grandfather was a male chauvinist who treated my brother differently than my sister and me. He was an incredible businessman but never bothered to teach business to his three daughters. He could have taught them to fish in the river of life so they could enjoy their lives and be empowered, but he didn’t because they weren’t boys. He treated them as inferior and weak. My guy friends all had more freedom than us girls. I liked the simplicity the boys...
