Business and Life Coaching,
You Can’t Know What You Don’t Know That seems obvious, right? But we forget. Have you ever had a friend who was upset with you and when you ask why her answer is, “You should know!” I have and it’s maddening. What if I really don’t know??? Their answer could be, “I can’t believe you …
Don’t let it go! That seems contrary to what I always say, right? Let me explain. Sometimes when we have a fearful or anxious thought or old traumatic memories we’re told to, “let it go.” Or do release work to let it go. Release it. Get rid of it. When I’m doing release work sometimes, …
To de-stress Vacations aren’t a magic bullet; we just think they are. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying don’t take a vacation. I am the first one to say I love vacations! What I am saying is when you’re super stressed out or if you don’t have the time or the money a vacation …
Black and White Thinking Part 2 Here’s part 1 in case you missed it. Do you ever find yourself assuming the worst-case scenario? Or jumping to conclusions?

My best friend made a comment the other day that prompted me to write this. She said she’s forgiven her sisters for things that happened, but she hasn’t forgotten. She’s so right. I forgave my dad for things that he did but I haven’t forgotten them. How can you? Something caused you to be upset …
We commonly think of FOMO, or fear of missing out, in relation to social situations. We tend to think of situations such as someone feeling left out. Social media intensifies FOMO because perfect, unrealistic lives are often portrayed. Those with FOMO feel they are left out of that perfect life, especially when compared to their …
Are you a stick in the mud? Or stuck in the mud? Just one little letter change makes all the difference in the meaning. Stick the mud means someone who’s no fun, who doesn’t want to join in the fun. Stuck in the mud means you can’t get out. You’re stuck. You can’t advance. If …
