What is your story? Or in other words, what made you your awesome self you are today?  

I have been an entrepreneur for over 25 years. I began in network marketing with Arbonne so that I could raise my children and supplement our income. I reached the top level in the company, and after coaching and leading several women on my team on the importance of having a very powerful vision for your life, I decided to speak, coach, and created a curriculum to help people publicly. I have now taught thousands of people why they need to have a written, crystal clear vision, how to write one as they have never done before, and how to break down that big dream into daily, doable goals. 

What message do you promote?   

#Vision is Victory

#Do It On Purpose

#Keep Looking up

Your Vision IS your victory as it fixes just about everything in your life!

Having a vision reveals your life purpose, and people with purpose are living out their God-given calling and legacy.

What is your story? Or in other words, what made you your awesome self you are today?  

We believe that the most interesting people have come from difficult lives……it has seasoned and polished them.  And it is that uniqueness that makes them compelling and able to do neat things. And the ‘difficult’ part is different for everyone!  

We believe that people who have worked hard have an appreciation for their success and compassion for others and life in general.

What is your story? Or in other words, what made you your awesome self you are today?

I found a field I was passionate about and that fit my talents at an early age. It was more by accident than by design, but it has worked out well for me. I have been an organization development (OD) and learning professional for coming up on 27 years. The OD values of respect, inclusion, collaboration, authenticity, self-awareness and empowerment fit the way I approach my work and my life. 

I became aware of “exclusion” at an early age. As a little white girl of maybe four or five years old, I asked for a black doll. The reaction I got was, “why would you want that doll?” This fueled a lifelong quest to create an inclusive environment where all voices could be heard, and where I notice who is not in the conversation. I also see the connectedness of things – talents, resources, concepts, energy, etc. Sometimes I may be a quiet observer, especially in group...

It’s Tuesday or Wednesday or Friday or Sunday and I’m in one of my very favorite places and spaces. The Yoga Studio at Lifetime Fitness. I hit that door and I know without a shadow of a doubt something is going to happen…change…I will find clarity or hear a message that I need to hear at that exact moment in time.
It happens all the time. In every single yoga class I attend.
Just when I least expect it, the instructor says something amazing that I could have heard a million times before and yet, this time it sinks into my cells. Into my brain. Into my heart. And I never know when it’s going to happen. But it does. Constantly and continuously.
Breathing easier in the yoga studio is a truth for me. I can be turned upside down, challenging myself in a tripod pose or simply flowing and I know I am where I am supposed to be.
It was in THIS yoga studio that I found my Warrior. In those beginning classes during a particularly rough time, I needed Warrior One and...

Life Lessons We Can Take from Children

Whether you’re a parent or a teacher, as a responsible adult, it’s your duty to teach children values and information. Essentially like a role model. This undoubtedly sets the child up with a good start in life. This dynamic isn’t viewed both ways however, but what if children can teach us things too?

Forgiving

Playgrounds can be places of intense competition and arguments for a child. The best part about this though is that the children tend to forgive and forget, perhaps quicker than an adult would do so. Often, time spent mulling an argument over internally isn’t a positive approach, as we are focusing on the dispute itself rather than weighing out a solution for it. Whether we feel at odds with a colleague or a loved one, having the ability to process this feeling and forgive rather than carry a grudge can prove extremely beneficial — allowing us to get on with the important things in life.

Being Honest
