I’m Sick of Saying I’m Sorry

I’m so sick of saying I’m sorry. Actually, I’m PISSED OFF! Why?It sickens me that after all the modern inventions, technology, advancements, and liberties, we have not ended abuse and trauma. As a child abuse survivor and publisher, it sickens me that the stories of survivors coupled with the depravity of humanity is never-ending. But it gets worse.As a woman…

Are You Still in Love?

Are You Still in Love? I love Valentine’s Day and love in general, but I did not always feel that way. All too often, my feelings were contingent on what society said this holiday meant. In layman’s terms:  If I had someone during this holiday and they pulled out all the stops, I loved Valentine’s Day. If not, it sucked! Either…

Greatness, success, and wealth start with the first step

Wealth and success do not happen by osmosis! Success is scheduled. With that in mind:How many times would you like to be paid today? Tomorrow? This week? I remember the first time one of my business coaches asked me this question.

I’ve been in training for Coronavirus my entire life

At first, I thought I was crazy. Our stay-at-home order for COVID-19 seemed natural to me. Yes, I went through the panic, rebellion and mild shock stages, but I focused more on the action/prep and prevention mode. I felt really weird at how natural this was for me and how, except for a few inconveniences, I was pretty comfortable with…

FREAK OUT: It’s Okay!

“Don’t panic.”“Remain calm.”“Everything will eventually work itself out.” While the above is true, we can’t all be the Rock of Gibraltar nor should we. You can possess grace under fire, but don’t forget to give yourself permission to FREAK OUT!     Not acknowledging our feelings or simply wishing them away, only intensifies them. The longer you avoid your emotions…
