Here is ONE question that keeps going through my head and that is “What will I let hold me back in 2011?” The only answer I’ve come up with is “The same things that held me back in 2010?” Unless I change it. Right now. This is the same for everyone. What I know for sure is: Change can occur in a split second. Healing can happen in an instant. Transformation lasts a life time. See if you can relate to the top three things I learned in 2010: I always have a choice. Sometimes it doesn’t feel like it. The drama I experienced in 2010 was a choice. So was the success and bliss! It’s a all choice. My success begins and ends with loving myself. The stuff in the middle is forgotten anyway. It’s how I love myself through and after the experience is what counts. I AM ENOUGH. Period. What are you choosing to DO in 2011? Who are you choosing to BE? What sweet success do you know you are ready for? Are you ready to claim it? There is huge momentum happening in this powerful year. There are no accidents why you feel excited and probably a little bit scared too. It’s the latest craze but I have a feeling this energy isn’t going out of style any time soon. It’s sticking around. The next editions of this newsletter will dive into how to create the life you love and love the life you live. No fluff. I’ll cover candid topics and hard-to-ask questions. I’ll hold the space to listen when you have YOUR...

I keep hearing “you know you are living your purpose if there is ease and flow.” What does that mean? I’m confused by this. I see brilliant entrepreneurs quit in the middle of their process because they didn’t feel like it was easy or in the flow. But here is the thing. We are beings of nature and in nature everything has a rhythm to it. Our human bodies have a rhythm to it. When a woman has a baby, their body knows what to do. It’s a natural process. (This will make sense in a second.) I’m pretty sure there are times when it doesn’t feel easy or in the flow. There are times of intensity, yet we know it’s in the flow because we TRUST the process and we are committed to the result. Why do we apply stipulations to our business that we don’t apply to nature? Example: If it’s not easy, it means that I’m not supposed to go down this particular path in my business. Yet, as women we know our bodies go through many cycles and phases. In the middle of a cold do you tell yourself that because it’s not easy, I’m going to quit? Do you tell yourself that it’s a sign that I’m not supposed to be on this path? Sure, it may be a sign that you need to rest but to totally change gears at the drop of a hat? You have to go THROUGH the cold to get to the result of health. Yes, you do know that you are in your purpose when you are in...

I know your inbox is getting full of emails that start with “Can you believe that 2011 is almost here?” “Wow what a 2010…” And while I appreciate all of the New Year’s Wishes, I have a few mixed thoughts on 2010. I’m going to get transparent about what is really up for me as 2010 comes to a close. I’m soooo glad to be complete with the roller coaster of 2010! While it’s been a remarkable year, 2010 also holds some of the darkest times I’ve had in years. It was a huge growth year of self discovery and holds some huge life lessons that I created. And it was all perfect. I’ve learned several HUGE things this past year, a few of which have taken my breath away. Sometimes because I was in awe of miraculous synchronicity and other times because I was energetically kicked in the gut. As more entrepreneurs share their successes and challenges with me from the last year, I see that we have one big thing in common. 2010 held opportunities for us to look at any remaining residue that was holding us back. No longer could we put a Band-Aid over it or turn the other way, we were “forced” to look at it and when we saw the perfection of it, we were able to release it. And the beautiful part that I saw time and time again is that this process was relatively quick if we chose to commit to our truth and success more than we were willing to hang on to our “stories” of smallness. As a result...
