How to own your own power and be unstoppable
You are a powerful being and you probably don’t even recognize it. You’ve been conditioned to think that being powerful is wrong and that it’s fueled by masculine energy and riddled with control. But what if for just a moment you challenged the definition of owning your power? What is it’s more about knowing who…

Setting Goals To Grow Your Business
Setting goals to grow your business are needed because you can easily get caught up in the day-to-day tasks of running your business. You spend all of your time trying to keep the ship afloat and this means you’re not focused on navigation, so you aren’t setting a course. This may not be a problem…

How you deal with challenges, matters
How you deal with challenges matters, no matter how big or small. You will encounter some difficulties and unexpectedly negative situations as you go through your day today.

With all Due Respect

When are you going to be an upstander?
I am pissed. Pissed that another child took his own life because he was bullied for having a colostomy bag. Pissed because people and organizations continue to choose to be bystanders instead of upstanders. Every day I have a conversation with my extra needs kiddo about bullying. Every Day! And seriously that 10-year-old boy should…
