I’m not talking about your basic day-to-day self care and bare minimum maintenance, but an actual full-scale mission to self-care and self-love yourself back into a good place again…back to YOU. This mission, should you choose to accept it (please do!), may take anywhere from a day or two to a few weeks, and your soul will tell you when it’s complete.

When You Feel Like Something’s Missing – Here Are Some Answers
Do you ever feel like something’s missing in an area of your life? Relationships, business, passions… it’s something most of us experience at one time or another. Long ago, I learned from A Course in Miracles that when you feel like something’s missing in any situation, the answer is what’s missing is what you’re not giving. I’ve found this to be powerfully true in so many instances. It’s an idea that’s changed the way I show up in many areas of my life for the better, and keeps me focused on always doing the best I can, asking, “What more can I offer?” But, I’ve recently learned there’s something else…

Could Thinking Like A Rattlesnake Help You Make Better Choices?
A while back, I was hiking with my dogs when they both simultaneously dove their faces into a bush on the side of the trail. They were a few yards ahead of me, tails wagging with enthusiasm as they looked to satisfy their curiosity. As I approached I shouted, “Leave it,” a command that normally gets them to back away instantly, even from super tempting treats. But they stayed put, sniffing away. Thinking it was a rabbit or other furry critter that had scurried under the bush, I walked up and pulled both dogs away by their collars. Peeking into the bush to see what was so interesting, I was…

Why Being a Little Badass Can be Blissful
I can remember a time in my life when fear about what others would think of me would keep me from expressing my opinion or standing up for myself, even in situations where I should have been putting up a serious fight for what I believed was right. I never had any problem coming out swinging in defense of others, but when it came to defending myself, that was another story. The same fears held me back when it came to busting out of my comfort zone or breaking rules (even the ones that just ask to be broken). A few years ago, I finally drew a line and decided to…

Letting Go & Becoming the CEO of Your Own Happiness
“Our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world as being able to remake ourselves.” -Gandhi Ten years ago I was a young executive working in a fairly high-profile job at a big entertainment studio. I had an office with a view, a gorgeous convertible, a huge wardrobe, and was invited to fantastic parties every week. From the outside, it seemed like I had it all. I was convinced that I did have it all, because everyone was telling me how great it was. It was the life I’d been conditioned to strive for. The truth was, I was incredibly empty and unhappy inside. I wondered…
