Instagram & How to Avoid the Follow-Unfollow Game

Instagram and other social media’s purpose is to serve. This blog you are reading is actually less about me and more about how I can serve you. My Instagram account has everything to do with showing up for women who want to learn about sexual health & wellness – it has nothing to do with me or what I want to see. Even Tik Tok isn’t about me. If it was, I wouldn’t be attempting dances and creating content with any specific message attached. Instagram doesn’t like the Follow-Unfollow Game. Every once in a while an account will message ...

Personal Development. The Bible is the best personal development book out there. In fact, personal devleopment books helps make Biblical practices relatable and easier to do.

Personal Development is Everywhere: Have Eyes to Look

The Bible is by far the best personal development book out there. I realize how silly that might sound. It’s the Bible after all! You may or may not believe what it teaches. It’s hard to argue that it’s not well written with much wisdom to up level your life. The past few years I have discovered a number of books that helped me in my personal life and my business. Recently, I was encouraged to add Bible reading to my morning “program.” I now read one chapter a day from my Bible and 10 pages from a book ...

Recognition

When COVID hit we were ready. My company, that is. We had already been doing a weekly connect call with our CEO every Monday at 6 AM so the transition to a call every morning of the work week was almost natural. It took a bit for me to jump on the band wagon and when I did I was PUMPED. Every single morning I was inspired and motivated and valued. I showed up at 6 AM, sometimes still under my comforter, sometimes in full work out attire and sometimes barely functioning yet, sitting up and sipping my coffee. ...

Just Show Up

I love Mondays. It’s a fresh start to a brand new week. Regardless of what happened yesterday, last week or all month long, Monday always comes back around as an opportunity to Begin Again. So starting my day the right way is really important to me. This means gratitude journaling, talking with God and some personal development time. It’s how I focus my day and empower myself to show up – even imperfectly. However, on this particular Monday… months ago now… I was struggling to show up at all… And here is that story… My 5:55 AM alarm sounded. ...

Create Your Way Through The Things That Happen

Yesterday was spilling into today. And I had a decision to make. Do I lie about being too sick for a video call or feign an unimportant yet “important” family emergency? OR Get on the call as scheduled, as agreed upon?  Follow through is important, and I know I don’t want to let her down. She is counting on me.  As I thought contemplating all these things with half an hour left to decide… I realized something really important. This  call would be more about me than her. I needed to show up not for her, but for myself. ...

What is the purpose of Goal Setting?

You have heard about the importance of goal setting before. Probably more than once. Goals are important to have. How can you get to where you’re going if you don’t know where you’re going? Right? However, what if goal setting isn’t actually about achieving those goals?  Did I lose you? Let me explain… Goal setting is less about achievement and more about your personal development. The question isn’t “how” to achieve those goals. The question is “Who do you need to become,” to be available to achieve those goals. So now what kind of goals are we talking about here? ...
