Kim’s Story: Why Putting Yourself First is NOT Selfish



LISTEN TO THE PODCAST

“Everyone else comes first.” How is that feeling at the end of the day? I hear it all the time. Women who are trained and raised so well to take care of everyone else. It is a deep value that conflicts with a person’s health. Putting everyone else first doesn’t work. It doesn’t get us the love and appreciation we need as humans. Putting everyone else first is one of the biggest energy drains I see in the hundreds of women I work with. It creates chronic tiredness, crankiness, lack of sleep, health conditions, and such end of day depletion you’d think you had just run a marathon each and every day.

Yuliya’s Story: From Unhappy to Happy All the Time

LISTEN TO THE PODCAST

It is in the moments when we choose something different, something courageous, something from our inner being, our life goes up or down.

Yuliya was suffering in her Computer Science career. Living and working in Prague, she thought she would rather write for a living.  A blog that she wasn’t inspired to write….a career where she felt small and unsuccessful, she needed answers. She was shrinking and felt horrible each and every day. Her inner being wouldn’t let her go….she found a way to get the help she needed. Her story is inspiring to all of us who felt desperate to get out.

Listen to this woman who overcame all the obstacles that one can face;

LISTEN TO THE PODCAST

Welcome to the insider’s instructional manual on how to find your true, real, powerful, soulful SELF!

How did she do it?

We talk about the exact steps Marissa took.

How did she get past and through her fear?

We talk about the exact steps she took.

Marissa had some beliefs and inner programming that were causing her career (and life) to stall out. She knew there was more inside her (she heard the whispers), but she didn’t know HOW to believe in herself.

Marissa had to shut the voice of her inner being…shut it because it conflicted with her “reality”.

What’s Up with Getting Bullied at Work?

We’ve seen it all lately!

Or have we?

I’ve been there and I’m a #MeToo participant.

Why are we seeing another abuse of power?

Why are we seeing another opportunity for people to step forward and say, “NO MORE!”

I was raised Catholic and when the Catholic priest sexual abuse was uncovered….so long it took to finally be exposed, I was mortified, but also knew how common it was for that sort of power abuse.

I’ve seen bosses ignore problems, belittle people, yell in such a way as if it was out of a horror movie.

So surprised and shocked each time.

She Found HERSELF… Are You Ready?

She is all right now. She started out desperate to feel better.

She has a Masters Degree in Computer Science.

She works in a big company in Europe serving business clients.

She used to feel invisible. USED TO!

She wants to be a writer, a blogger. She wants to be seen for who she is.

We met in my Kick Ass Coaching call 12 weeks ago.

She lives in Europe and was ready to throw in the towel.

Burnt out.

Not seen.

Miserable at work. Miserable with what she chose to study and learn.

But… she is talented.

You Create It All, But How?

Thoughts are Momentum.

You create your life. YOU CREATE EVERYTHING IN YOUR LIFE.

Yup! There, I said it.

Everything in your physical world is an out-picturing of the world inside you….because it all starts with energy.

Your consciousness is showing. Everywhere!

The grand mirror of the physical world is a reflection of the energy world in which we live.

Your thoughts and feelings are energy.

How else would you feel them? This energy interacts with your body…feelings!

Your physical body responds and then chemicals in your body change and now you have a real deep feeling. Once it is in your cells….your body remembers the feeling.

Cracking Open to Your Success

The Crack That Opened Me Up…..My Breast Cancer Journey

Sitting in that familiar chair just like many November weekend days, watching football, snacks at the table beside me, I moved up and down while the games played. A fan since I was a little girl.

Not this day.

This day I was in the same brown leather recliner, not comfortable and not up and down as I wanted.

Not this day.

This day bandages covered my breasts, covered the drains coming out of the sides of my chest and just below where my belly button used to be. Where my belly used to be. Where my breasts used to be.

What You Think of Yourself May Hurt You

Who you think you are may be hurting you….let’s explore this tricky topic. It’s more than self-image.

Like it or not, our lives are a collection of our thought habits.

This past Saturday I had a great session with my Mastermind ladies. These are women who have worked with me for a while and are frickin’ awesome! Heck….they inspire me with all they accomplish and their aligned, soul-based living. Many of them have recently achieved more in their careers and lives than they ever imagined possible for themselves.

They are living their dream lives because of one major change. They began to see themselves in new ways. There are some necessary steps to take to get aligned.
