This season has brought a lot of lows. We have had to sit with a lot of bad things…some really frustrating things. There have been a lot of hurtful things and people that have come to the forefront. Life is just different. Very different. I have to say that in all of the things we…

It Is Not Crazy…..Embrace It Anyway!
Have you ever heard this one before? “Girl, you are so crazy!” What about saying to yourself, “I don’t want to look crazy.” Someone may have called you crazy before. You may have spoken to yourself in this way a time or two. Thought you were crazy for caring too much or being a…
The Impact of Spring Cleaning Again!
As I have said in a previous blog post or 10, I am spring cleaning my life. This has been a chore and a half. Picture this. Think about the last time you moved. Do you remember all of the stuff that you had not seen since the last time you moved? Yes, all of…
You Have Feelings Too!

You vs. You: Second Chances
When was the last time you gave yourself a second chance? I ask this because I never really thought about it until recently. A second chance to find your purpose, overcome fears and insecurities, or even loving yourself? Do you or have you done that? If you are anything like me, you have given people…
How To Own Your Next Year
Man, so much can happen in a year! 52 weeks…365 days…8,760 hours. Yes, I would say that is a lot of time. It could look overwhelming when you see it written down. I must say, when I see these numbers, I am thinking about it as one of my greatest gifts. Time…is a gift! Things…
Leave the Past in the Past
We all have a past. A past that many of us don’t want to think about. One thing we need to stop doing is looking back at it with shame or regret. I look back at the break ups, the times I said yes when I really wanted to say no or the times when…
