Expectations Spoil the Joy

Posted in Life Coaching

Expectations spoil the joy. I vividly remember the first time I heard this at a workshop in 2001. These four words were life changing for me. When we have expectations of people and situations, we are ultimately setting ourselves up to be disappointed. When was the last time someone in your life read your mind [...]

It’s All Your Fault

Posted in Life Coaching

It’s all your fault! Now that I’ve gotten your attention, let me elaborate. So many people walk through life placing blame on external situations and other people for the way they feel. You say you’re miserable because you hate your job. You think you’re unhappy because your husband doesn’t help with the kids enough. You’re [...]

Celebrate Your Successes

Posted in Life Coaching

Every day is a day for celebration! Do you stop and reflect and feel good about all of the progress you make in life, or like most people, do you just let life pass you by without noticing? My guess is, you aren’t completely the same person you were ten years ago, or maybe even [...]

Posted in Conscious Parenting, Life Coaching

“It’s the little things in life.” A lot of us have said it. I know I do, all the time. How often do you really buy into that saying though? Do you even notice “the little things”? Do you feel joy thinking about “the little things”? Do you point out “the little things” to others? [...]

You Want, But Can You Receive?

Posted in Life Coaching, Relationship Coaching

Oftentimes the things we think we want most, are the hardest for us to actually receive. This doesn’t mean that we can’t have what we want in life; it just means people are generally not even aware of, or cannot fully feel life in all it’s glory. Logically people often KNOW what they should feel grateful [...]

Who Do You Want to Be?

Posted in Life Coaching

Just because you’ve always been a certain way, doesn’t mean you always have to be that way. Stop for a moment, and think about that. In my twenties I became depressed. I just wasn’t content in life, and wasn’t so clear as to why. This was the beginning of my self discovery journey, and after [...]

Decisions, Decisions

Posted in Life Coaching

I don’t know about you, but when it comes to making decisions, I’m often a bit of a disaster. I’m amazed and in awe when I witness my hubby making decisions with what appears to be, no effort at all. I coach a woman regularly who struggles with this as well, which is so perfect [...]

Feel the Fear, and Do it Anyway!

Posted in Life Coaching

I’ve spent a lot of time lately thinking about what makes certain people ‘doers’ in life, and why others seem to generally ‘play it safe.’ What I’ve come to believe is that it all comes down to fear, and how people react to it. For some, fear is paralyzing. They think of something they’d like [...]

I Think, Therefore I Can

Posted in Life Coaching

The hubby and I took a little vacation to Cali this week. Our first stop was Santa Barbara, and then on to Rancho Mirage. Yesterday we took a three and a half hour hike in Joshua Tree National Park. Being that I often feel inspired while exercising, my mind really got going. Unfortunately, no one [...]
