One of the most challenging and constant jobs we humans have is setting boundaries. Boundaries between work and rest, social and private, money for fun and necessities, work and casual relationships, “me” time and “everyone else” time just to name a few. Isn’t it annoying when a thought about work comes into your mind whileContinue reading “Boundaries”

Happy New Year!
The second half of 2024 was intense! I will share a little about it in the next few posts. But I am grateful for life coaching because it made my perception and focus stay on track to reach the outcome more easily and with way less stress than if my anxiety, worry or negative thinkingContinue reading “Happy New Year!”
My Money Story Part 1
Most of our beliefs come from our childhood. After all, we are empty vessels with room in our heads to take in the world around us when we are young. That includes everything, from relationships to communication styles to how people feel about money. What are your first memories of money? What beliefs do youContinue reading “My Money Story Part 1”
Pay attention!
My 16-year-old cat is doing great, except for the puking, random poops that fall from her outside of the box, and needing to eat right next to the sink where I fix her food. I love her so much so I do what I can to keep her healthy and happy. My home has becomeContinue reading “Pay attention!”
My Lemon Tree
One thing is for sure. You don’t get to grow old without experiencing challenges! The saying “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade” comes to mind. And I have a whole tree of lemons I am relying on to make lemonade! Maybe I have been given lemons to make lemonade. Or maybe I’m supposed toContinue reading “My Lemon Tree”

Sometimes we failed and sometimes we succeeded. But the challenge was either met or replaced withContinue reading “Setting goals”
Non- thought
We think thousands of thoughts a day! THOUSANDS!!! Only a handful of those are useful. The rest threatened to tamper with our progress by bringing up past events, judgements and comparisons, among other things. As a performer, thoughts can distract and cause me to lose focus to the point of following my chain of thoughtContinue reading “Non- thought”
My cat is my greatest teacher
When I took in my dad’s cat in 2018, I had no idea I would learn so much about life from her. And still, in 2022, she is teaching me how to be present. When COVID made us all stay home, I had had her for about a year and a half. I vowed IContinue reading “My cat is my greatest teacher”
It’s Not About You
Have you ever sent an email that you poured your soul into or a whole lot of facts, anyway, only to wait forever for a response? While you’re waiting, a process might begin to unfold…. your head is full of doubt and fear and worry. “Maybe I said something wrong? Maybe I was too blunt?Continue reading “It’s Not About You”
The Sock Drama
I love my daily walks. It is a time to listen to podcasts or just organize my thoughts and breathe a little fresh air!! The other day, I was about 5 minutes out and the sneaker sock I had on slipped into my shoe. The heal just slid down into the back of the shoe.Continue reading “The Sock Drama”
