How to Have it All Now

Do you ever feel frustrated, because things in your life aren’t the way you wish they were? I know what that feels like, because I feel that way too sometimes. Sometimes I get frustrated when I look around and see a disconnect between what I wish was true, and what I actually see in my life. But then I remember a really powerful tool that has brought me my desires in the past and never stops working. It has worked so many times for me, and yet sometimes I *still* need to remind myself to use this tool, because it’s so

Decision Making Tip: Connect With Your Higher Self

I was able to make a difficult decision this week using a really cool technique, and I want to share it with you today! I just started taking a class called Adult Psychopathology, because I wanted to get more clinical experience and possibly even an LPC (license professional counselor) license. It was a lot of extra work, though, and I found myself wondering if it was working in harmony with my work as a Life Coach or detracting from it. It was hard to decide by reasoning. On the one hand, learning more is always advantageous. But the time I would

Part III: Taking Action Even When You’re Freaked Out

Today I want to share with you Part III in my Make Your Dream Come True This Summer Series! ~ But first I have to share with you my “Wink From the Universe” experience last night :). I was heading out for a low-key Saturday night to go shopping for a dress to wear to an upcoming wedding, when I noticed a message I had received from my friend Jon. He invited me to be his date to a wedding on the Moshulu (a beautiful boat on the waterfront in Philadelphia). It was completely spontaneous as his date had just cancelled with the flu. I thought “Why not?” and did my classic get-ready-for-a-formal in 15 minutes routine, and headed over. As I was parking on the street by a meter, my heart sank as I realized we didn’t have any quarters. I was starting to feel frustrated (no ATM in site), when Jon suggested we ask the people sitting in the car behind us for change. As we approached them, their window was already down and the woman in the passenger seat was holding her hand out-stretched with about three dollars worth of quarters for us!  When he offered to give her cash for the quarters, she refused. I told her I would only use what I needed and put in enough money to cover us for the remainder of the evening. There was some debate as to how much time that was, however, and the woman insisted that we put in all the quarters to be safe. I feel so blessed to receive this payment from her, and my initial frustration seems really silly now.  I had an amazing, spontaneous night and it all fell together perfectly. Check out our silly pictures! 🙂 ~ And now for Part III: Taking Action Even When You’re Freaked Out! I’ve decided to make it all text rather than video for a change of pace (and to give those of you who have trouble accessing video a break :)).  If you haven’t seen my first two videos yet, you can start by watching the first one here. Today I’d like to talk to you about taking action. Once you’ve had a dream form in your mind and it starts to build, it is so important to start doing something about it.

~ 3 Manifesting Tips to Deal With Disappointment ~

Have you ever called in an amazing opportunity and then experienced disappointment in how it turned out? I’m sure that’s happened to all of us at one point or another. You set your intention to receive something you’ve been wanting (whether you’re formally setting it or not—it all starts with a thought), you finally receive it, and then things don’t go as planned. Obstacles come up. Well that definitely happened to me this week. And it got me asking all those questions like, “Why would I receive this in the first place if it wasn’t going to work out???” So I decided to make a video about my experience and share 3 insights that ultimately helped me deal with my disappointment.

Free Ebook Here: Every Woman Can

A few months ago I agreed to collaborate on an ebook about personal development with Courtney Baker of Gen Y Mindset. At the time, I thought it would be just the two of us or a small group working on it. Well, lots of people were interested, and there ended up being 18 women working on it together—all coaches and entrepreneurs. Each one contributed a chapter. The book is called “Every Woman Can,” since it is a collection of stories written by women, but I don’t think it’s just for the ladies. While some of the experiences these women share may be unique to women, the message of courage and empowerment in the face of challenge is for everyone.
