Change is uncomfortable. It makes me uneasy. It's unsettling. Have you ever felt the same? Change, for me, was also necessary. Which is totally contradictory to what I just said, right? A few weeks ago, I was talking with my coach and sharing with her that I was feeling super uncomfortable. I was somewhat aware that I was changing, but I wasn't giving it my undivided attention. Carol, my coach, explained to me that I was feeling was completely normal. And I knew it - but I didn't want to necessarily deal with it. She asked me to embrace it. Once I did, I got even more uncomfortable. It was one of the worst feelings I've ever experienced. It was difficult for me to make a decision. Who am I? Who am I changing into? Do my old thoughts and ideas match who I am becoming? How is this change going to change the way I present myself, work with clients, live my life? You know what? The moment ...
A couple of years ago, my husband and I traveled to Italy for a 3 week trip. On the way to board our plane to return home, we got questioned by the gatekeepers at the airline. What was your business in Italy? What did you purchase? How long were you here? When I told the guy 3 weeks, he didn't believe me because we had no checked luggage.

"Your joking, right?" Nope. I said that we traveled to Italy to enjoy the experience, not to shop. Apparently this is not the norm. So much so that the attendant guy said that people bring empty suitcases with them so that they can fill them with their purchases. Us doing just the ...
The New Year is giving me permission to let things go that are no longer serving me. For instance, I had a stack of notecards of affirmations from a mindset program I went through last year. They served their purpose, yet they were still sitting on my desk. I let them go. Replaying bad memories. 2017 was just one big %*&# show. The bad memories of 2017 were definitely not serving me. So I let them go. Belts! I had three belts hanging in my closet that I have not worn for years. They were definitely not serving me. I let them go. After I let these items and feelings go, I felt free - like I was unblocked and able to move forward. Grab YOUR Lifeline to Freedom here! What is no longer serving you? Is it time? Do you feel like you haven't even a moment to breathe? Is it freedom? Are you able to live your life your way? Do you want to be able to enjoy quality time and not fee...
