Alright, I’ll admit to it, even after being somewhat reluctant to adding something else to my hectic lifestyle and to making another daily commitment; I’ve become obsessed with Green Juice! And I’m having a serious love fest with it!

That’s right “Fiber Queen” is making her way to becoming “Green Juice Queen”. Who would have thought that this could be such an adventure and so much fun? Everything from going to the market to selecting a variety of veggies, fruits, herbs, and roots, to figuring out how to prep a piece of ginger and beet, to all the abundant and creative recipes of green juicing/smoothies! Of course, I had to ask my sister, Amanda, for help on what to do with ginger root and the beet. Wow, there was so much [Continue Reading...]

If you’re anything like me and have moments of feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stressed, obsessed over the right approach and the end result, well I’ve got a secret for you to rock your world and give you back your liberation! However, before I get into this secret, let me share a work moment that recently happened.

Just a few weeks ago, I had an employee come down seriously annoyed about a coworker interaction she just had, and as a result, she was refusing to collaborate with this coworker any longer.

When life isn’t quite happening the way you expect or want it (e.g., a relationship, a job opportunity or making a sports team), it can be frustrating, particularly if it seems that everyone else around you is living the life you want. Let me share, I have been there myself many times. Of course, this has lead to me search for answers to make sense of the situation by asking why and what can I do differently next time?

Well, I’m here to tell you that you’re not alone and I’m here for you. So let me share some insights, strategies, resources, and encouragement that have helped me gain clarity and move past my self-limiting beliefs that were holding me back.

A few weeks ago, I was a Guest Speaker at Half Hollow Hills High School West (3 classes back to back!) and I discussed with the students the topic, Learning to Embrace Change in Your Life and Career. Without a doubt, Embracing Change is so essential to master, especially if you want to achieve some big goals and conquer your self-limiting beliefs, fears and doubts!

It’s when I’ve stepped forward, believed in myself, stayed committed to the outcome and true to myself, that’s when some powerful moments happened in my life and career!

In this video clip from that day, I shared with the High School Students, How I became a Half Marathon Runner & then got featured in FITNESS Magazine for the July/August 2012 issue.

Tell me are you interested in keeping the momentum going towards your goals, and connecting to similar like minded individuals for synergy, support, and friendships? How about feeling like you can take on the world and become a force to be reckoned with?

All in all, it’s about taking in what really resonates with me [Continue Reading...]
