Have you seen this?
My voice echoed through the room as I dared to speak. My teammates had gone back and forth because no one wanted to do the presentation—but for some reason, I did. Funny thing is: I used to be the quiet girl in school. No self-esteem, a phobia for people, and a journal always in hand. So when I found myself in college, presenting on behalf of my group, and speaking boldly about our topic, all I could think was, “Who am I? Whose voice am I hearing?” And I did good too. I was the only one who...

As a kid, I wrote my dreams in journals…LOTS of ‘em! Many shelves later, I still do. (Anyone else have a notebook addiction?) For years, I’ve wanted to host my own podcast but it never felt like the right time… until now. I had all kinds of thoughts like: “I don’t know how to do this,” “Will anyone even listen to it?,” “Does the world need yet another podcast?” And all these doubts really came down to one pesky little thing: fear. But recently, I was asked WHY I want to start a podcast, and I...

Scared. Tired. Hopeful. Excited. Busy. As you shift from dreaming to doing, you’ll feel all these at the same time. It’s… uncomfortable. BUT it’s oh so worth it! Here’s why I can attest to this: Lately, I’ve been working on foundational assets to drive my business forward. So far, I’ve launched a podcast, a really fun quiz, and even a waitlist for my course! And even more exciting—I wrote a journal! It’s called the Real You Roadmap journal: an interactive guide to unlocking your true...

Pun of the month: How does a penguin build its house? Igloos it together! 🐧😂 Real talk: Dreams. What’s the one dream in your heart right now? I’m not asking because it’s the end of the year. Not because “New Year’s Resolution” time is around the corner (yes, I just rolled my eyes too). But because I know you. I know you’ve had an idea in your heart that you’d just LOVE to bring to life. Yes, it’ll take time. Yes, it’ll be a labor of love. But I’m here to remind you: your dreams can absolutely...

I clutched the steering wheel for dear life. Just earlier that day, Josh called me to say a tire had blown out while he was on the bridge on his way to work… The bridges in our city are built high for boats to pass underneath – high enough for you to not see the other side till you get to the top. I could only thank God that his car didn’t go flying into the water. He managed to make it down the bridge, then pulled off to the side of the highway. Now, I’m frantic. I’m calling all the family...

We did it. And we were so good we almost made her cry. It had been an awful day (what’s not to love about your medical recovery time being passed off as “doing your own thing” in a rather insensitive tone). I turned on the Instacart app to do some deliveries with my husband, Josh (isn’t shopping the most fun side hustle ever!?). The order read: $8, 6 items, 2 miles away. Not too bad for a start. We accepted. Grabbed the first item: a bouquet of hot pink roses. Second item: a bouquet of...

Do you ever feel bad about how far you are from achieving your goals? I wanna let you in on three truths that help me stand strong when anxiety creeps in… …when I’m just so tired of being here and not yet “there.” Firstly, PERSISTENCY is more important than consistency. “Be consistent.” “Consistency is key.” This is the advice we receive at every corner. But what happens when you’re dealing with chronic health issues, working two jobs, and trying to take care of your family…all while building...
