• They say silence is golden, and I completely agree. In fact, I work best in a quiet environment where I can hear myself think. I find it soothing and peaceful. And it's when the creative juices really start flowing!

  • Let's give it up for the smile! And not just any smile...the Duchenne smile! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Oh, wait. Actually, ANY smile will do. But I'll get back to the Duchenne smile in a moment.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You may be thinking "Smile?...Right NOW? With all that's going on in the world? Are you nuts?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Yep, smile NOW! And nope, I’m not nuts! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So, what’s there to smile about? Stress reduction! To feel happier! And goodness knows we could all use a bit of that right now!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It may sound a bit “Pollyanna,” but there’s science behind this! According to a study at the University of Kansas, smiling has been shown to reduce stress levels. The best part about it is the smile doesn't even have to be because you’re happy.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As it turns out, smiling is a two-way street from and to Happy Town. We already know people smile *because* they’re happy. But we can also smile to *make* ourselves feel happier and less stressed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In other words, you can fake smile (which will often lead to a real smile or laugh, by the way) and lower that cortisol that may be coursing through your veins. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So, what about the Duchenne smile I mentioned earlier? First, it's an authentic smile that engages the muscles around the mouth AND the eyes. You've heard that expression "smile with your eyes"…well, that’s a Duchenne smile. And although any smile can help lower stress levels, the Duchenne does it best.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So, if you’re feeling stressed or unhappy, even if you aren't feeling like showing those pearly whites, give it a whirl! Soon enough, you may find yourself legit grinning ear to ear. And feeling a whole lot better about all the goings on in the world. The more you do it, the better you may find yourself feeling. And sharing that big beautiful smile with others right now may be just what we all need. Smiling IS contagious - and the kind of thing we all want to catch a bit of in these uncertain times. Give it a go and let me know how you feel!

  • You ever have one of those days...where you feel you’re forgetting SOMEthing but just can’t figure it out? And the whole day feels off? But. You power through, do whatcha gotta do, go where you gotta go, and get done what there is to get done. And just when you think you made it free and clear, you realize what you forgot...and there’s a choice to be made: do I or don’t I? What will they think? Are they going to laugh? But you decide “Fuck it! I’m goin’ in! And I’m gonna OWN working out at the gym in my @ugg boots!” And just like that, you walk out the locker room like you own the place! Only to make eye contact with your boyfriend on the bike who promptly begins laughing and shaking his head. But no matter. Cause you gonna “Work it! Work it! Own it Own it!” like Kit from Pretty Woman. And that’s how it’s done when you forget your gym shoes. #uggboots #gymlife #fitnesschick #personaltransformationcoach #adventuresinhappiness #ownitgirl #noapologies

  • I think Cupid’s arrow must’ve landed true overnight because I can’t stop gushing about how blessed I am to live the life I do! In the season of LOVE, today I’m feeling immensely grateful for so many things: a man who loves me for who I am (thank you @bradbrantley – I know I can be a handful!), amazing friends and clients who inspire me daily, and fur babies who show how much they love me by literally “dog piling on Mommy” every single morning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Life isn’t always rainbows and butterflies, but these little things (and more) add up to big love in my heart. And today is the perfect day to be present to that! Thank YOU for being here, too! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How about you? What are you LOVING today?? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #valentinesday #loveisintheair #blessed #cupidsarrow #lovinglife #gratitude #thelittlethings #adventuresinhappiness #lifecoaching #transformation #eft #tapping #nlp #hypnosis #coaching #mindsetmatters #stressreduction #loveyourlife #heartcenteredlife #happiness #meridiantapping

  • Just like plants require sunlight and water, dreams take some TLC, too! I may not have a bright green thumb (tis a bit yellow from time to time), but I do know a little something about what it takes to keep my dreams alive! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ First, a clear vision of what I want. Next, the belief that it’s coming to me – even when I don’t see it happening. And last but not least (and maybe most important), a reliable way to overcome any limiting beliefs that may pop up between now and dream come true! Because #doubtshappen (my favorite way is to use meridian tapping!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I consider this to be my own personal secret sauce, Miracle Dream Grow! And I know I have all it takes to achieve even my wildest dreams! And let me tell you, this year is a big one for THAT! This girl's livin' into some dreams, y'all!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What about you?

  • What do you love to do more than absolutely ANYTHING in the whole wide world? For me, it’s helping people - something I’ve always been inclined to do, even before making a career of it. I hesitate to say it’s a “gift.” (that feels a bit presumptuous), and yet I wholeheartedly find purpose in helping people transform their lives from the inside out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Seeing their eyes alight with dawning awareness as they break through limiting beliefs and past experiences is so inspiring to me. Is it me doing it for them? NOPE! They come to this place of transformation within themselves. I’m just the one lucky enough to facilitate their process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And in the spirit of helping, do you have any questions for me? I’d love to answer them! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #adventuresinhappiness #lifecoaching #transformation #tapping #eft #nlp #hypnosis #lifepurpose #awareness #transformyourlife #changewithin
