My phone is essential to keeping me straight. You too? I rely on it for all of my reminders, alarms, to-do lists...even my meditation and tapping practices! But too much screen time - particularly on social media - can be toxic to our confidence and productivity. 📉 Brendon Burchard calls the phone a “social comparison tool.” He says the more social media we consume, the more we compare ourselves to others. Have you found that to be true for you? I sure have. So the question is, are you controlling your phone or is it controlling you? If you find yourself needing to unplug more, here are some tips to help: •Turn off your notifications •Keep your phone on silent •Put your phone on “do not disturb” •Make your bedroom a phone-free zone •Read books before bed •Use a regular alarm clock •Do a detox for a day or a weekend When you can disconnect from the digital world a little more, you’ll sleep better, you’ll have more confidence, and your creativity will spike! 📈 So tell me, are you inspired to unplug more this weekend?

What do you say to yourself when you look in the mirror? I used to be anything but kind to myself, picking out and criticizing every flaw. My heart hurts to think of the unkind things I would say to myself. 😥 What a way to start the day! Who needs the world to judge you when you’re doing it so harshly to yourself?! Can you relate? (Drop a 🌸 to let other women know they aren’t alone!) There are a lot of ways to be kinder to yourself, and one of my favorites is using mirror mantras. It’s an easy and effective way to start your day off with a more positive mindset. ✨First, stand in front of your mirror and look yourself in the eye. Take a deep, cleansing breath. ✨Say a friendly hello! This reminds you that you can treat yourself as kindly as you would a friend. ✨Smile – even if you don’t feel like it. 😊 ✨Say a mantra that aligns with the energy you wish to feel. Some of my favorites are “I am healthy and happy” and “I love and appreciate myself unconditionally” and “I am centered. I am grounded. I am whole.” ✨Repeat these mantras 3 times anytime you pass by a mirror – out loud or in your mind, doesn’t matter! Will you give mirror mantras a try?

Two things my clients say to themselves all the time: “I just can’t do it all!” “I’m failing at everything!” Two things I used to say to myself all the time: “I just can’t do it all!” “I’m failing at everything!” Oh, do I get your pain, mama. I have felt buried under the crushing weight of too much to do and not enough time to do it. I’ve felt the guilt after collapsing on the couch at the end of the day, too tired to play with my kids before bed. I’ve wondered why other women seemed to have their shit together and asked myself, what’s wrong with me? Here’s what I want you to know: 1. There’s nothing wrong with you. 2. They don’t have their shit together either. 3. Neglecting your well-being serves no one. Not your clients, not your kids, and not yourself. You can have more energy. You can be more productive. You can find balance. You can ask for help. I’ve got you. I’ve been there, and I know there’s a better way. Reach out, let’s talk. ❤️
