Trendy Trade

In keeping in line with my last post about clothing, I want to tell you about a great event that I attended this past Sunday. 

My friend Jamie held her inaugural Trendy Trade on February 27th at the South Bend Chocolate Cafe in South Bend. 

L-R - Deb Handrich, stylist-Jamie Belcher, Trendy Trade organizer

This was a great girls get together!  I brought 7 items of clothing that no longer fit me, looked attractive on me or that I just did not want any longer.  I brought back 2 great items (which I think is a great ratio) - if you are a Facebook user you can see them here .

I invited Deb Handrich to join me at the Trendy Trade swap party - Deb is a stylist and she was giving great advice to everyone about the styles that would flatter their figures.  I found out that I am an inverted triangle - meaning I'm bulkier on top than I am on the bottom.  Has this changed the way I am going to dress?  You bet!

If you live in the area, info. for the next Trendy Trade is:

Sunday, March 13 · 2:00pm - 4:00pm

South Bend Chocolate Cafe
122 S. Michigan Street
South Bend, IN

If you would like to attend, please RSVP here. 

What a great way to clean out your closet, pick up some great pieces and save money!

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 I embraced who I was becoming, is the moment that everythi

Self-sabotage.  How does it show up for you? Overthinking? Double booking your calendar? Doubting yourself? Negative self-talk? Procrastinating? Not finishing a project? Worrying? Feeling unworthy? All of the above? Think back to the last time self-sabotage showed up for you.  What form did it arrive in?  Use the list above for a reference or write one of your own. Identifying how self-sabotage is showing up for you is the first step in overcoming it. Often times, negative self talk shows up first.  Only to be followed close behind by self-sabotage. Our greatest enemy is usually - ourselves. Being uncomfortable in your own skin often leads to self-sabotage. Self-sabotage creeps in when we try to control our own destiny......instead of doing the hard work and then letting it evolve naturally.   Join me on Wednesday, March 28th at 11 a.m. CST.  We are going to dive deep into self-sabotage and learn how to identify and overcome it
