Thoughts on the 'rights' of Motherhood (after a Mentee session this morning)
Such a powerful conversation this morning through Skype.
A woman who decided not to become a Mother, against the desires of her family.
I praise her for knowing and owning her truth.
I praise her for owning her body.
I praise her for not being yet another woman viewed and used as a womb.
I praise her for not adding to the dysfunction of women who do not want children, becoming emotionally and or physically detached parents.
I praise her for standing in her 'no', instead
Cover your Cup and close your mouth: Take ownership for what you allow into your cup (your life)
TAKE OWNERSHIP FOR WHAT
YOU ALLOW INTO YOUR CUP
(YOUR LIFE)
Friendships, Relationships, thoughts and things... if it does not make you feel good... if it does not make you a better person... do not pour it into your Cup of Life. Cover your Cup and close your mouth.
Remember this:
HOW YOU FEEL AFFECTS HOW YOU THINK.
HOW YOU THINK AFFECTS HOW YOU BEHAVE.
HOW YOU BEHAVE CREATES YOUR OUTCOMES.
YOUR OUTCOMES BECOME YOUR LIFE.
Pay attention to how you feel around people a
Dust off your Passport for Success
As I renew our passports as a family (yes, even our dog has a passport to explore the world) I'm left thinking about everyone's unique talents, skills, character quirks and abilities - their 'passport'.
We all have a 'passport', be it education, a particular craft, an ability to network, or create... we just need to ensure we keep it up-to-date, use it as much as we can, and understand its importance in opening the door to new experiences, opportunities, and literally enabli
The biggest challenge is truly embracing change, and convincing yourself it's worth it.
Almost anything can be done with the human body and mind - we were never created to remain stagnant and unchanged.
You just have to convince yourself enough on the inside, before you can truly see it manifested on the outside.
From fitness goals, to life goals, to love, and relationships - you have to truly believe it attainable, first, and then accept the steps towards it.
The problem is, few are willing to truly change, or challenge their 'normal'. _
ARE YOU PREPARED
Master the Art of Breathing and you Master the power of your Life
MASTER THE ART OF BREATHING AND YOU MASTER THE POWER OF YOUR LIFE
Breathing: We all do it, we all know we need to do it, and most know the dangers of not doing, but do you really realize just how powerful and important your breathe is, and how crucial deep breathing is for your mental, emotional and physical wellbeing, and success?
From supporting our body to release energy from the foods we eat (metabolism), deposting oxygen into our bloodstream; allowing oxygen rich blood
Let's stop allowing Society and Abusers to write and prescribe our healing scripts
Let's stop allowing Society and Abusers to write and prescribe our healing scripts.
There's this thing that society and abusers push about having to be polite and explain, especially explaining and justifying your pain, and/or right to avoid or walking away from it.
Then the double standard comes when a victim or survivor who remains is then negatively judged and quizzed as to why they stayed, or why they tried to remain peaceful, forgiving, or offering chances for improved
DON'T LET THE FEAR OF MAKING THE WRONG MOVE, PREVENT YOU FROM MOVING
There seems to be an obsession with making moves, especially the 'right' moves, with a fear of being left behind, or not 'appearing' to be winning.
Many compare their real life with the glossy social media 'showreels' of others, resulting in rushed commitments, or spending too much time overthinking each turn, wanting to ensure it is the 'right turn' - with quick returns, no risks, large payoffs, and zero investment. This is a fallacy! The ability to take risks, accept losse

The Energy of Appreciation
BE THANKFUL FOR THE SMALL THINGS AND WATCH HOW THEY BECOME BIG THINGS
When was the last time you sat down, truly blocked out all of the noise
from technology, family, friends and life, and just said "Thank you".
The energy of appreciation attracts more things to be thankful for.
Take some time each day to simply reflect on all you have, how far you have come, how much you have accomplished, and the good that you have given... and then say, "Thank you".
When was the last
