Last weekend, I had the opportunity to spend a couple of days in NYC with a group of amazing women as part of the Rockstar Collective, Robyn Youkilis' high-level coaching program.  The amount of personal development, learning and experiences that were packed into the weekend were incredible.  Read More

I've mentioned this in a past post, but for the past 77 days (plus some because I have to count the Sundays in the past 3 months), I have been following a workout program called 80 Day Obsession by Beachbody.  I wanted to dedicate some time today to write about the things I have learned over the last 77 days.  Read More

As a mother, you probably would give anything for your child(ren), no matter how much it hurts sometimes.  Last night, my 4 year old daughter came to us in the middle of the night, scared and crying, saying she had a bad dream.  My first instinct was to bring her into bed and let her snuggle with me on my pillow until she felt better and hopefully we could all go back to sleep.  Read More

I've read many times that establishing and maintaining a morning practice can make a huge difference in your life, but I have yet to actually implement one, until today.  People have different versions, and the key is that you have to find what works for you because the main goal is to be consistent with it everyday.  That's always been hard for me first thing in the morning.  Read More

Yesterday, I gave myself the gift of TIME.  I am working hard to change my relationship with time at a deeper level.  All of my life, I have run by the clock.  Anyone who knows me know that I am ALWAYS on time (everywhere) or early.  That's because it's just a thing for me. Read More

If you are like most people, you can't wait for the weather to warm up.  The winter blues can be all too real, and being cooped up for so many months can be so dreary!  But add to that one too many home-made cookies and any excuse to stay in bed just a little longer during the dark mornings (which means missing your workout for the day), and you may have also ended up with a few extra winter pounds and some seriously low energy.  Read More

Life by design, living your values, intentional living, priorities....there's a million ways to describe it, but what does it all mean?  I came to this realization only recently, and it's been a wonderful eye opener...it's all the same thing.  It means living your life, the way YOU want to live it, each and every day.   Read More

Before I actually quit my job to start my own business, I thought about starting my own business for about a million years (or at least it feels like it).  My friends joke that every time I talked to them, I would complain about how unhappy I was at work and how much I just wanted to start my own thing....BUT xyz.  Read More

When I talk to people about what I am doing as a health coach, how I set off on this path about a year ago and enrolled in IIN and now have launched my own business, the first question I often get is: "Aren't you scared?" or "Aren't you worried that you don't know enough?" or even "How do you know you can help people?"  My answer is astoundingly NO.

The coaching group that I am a part of recently brought up this idea of 10%.  What does that mean?  It's this idea that in our quest to live healthier lives, there is always a 10% something that we could do better, every day.  The beauty of this idea is that 10% is not a whole lot when you look at the span of your entire day, but doing this one thing every day, can truly make a difference in the long run.   Read More
