Improving your relationships starts within. Once you better understand your...
Self love, self confidence, self esteem, and self acceptance. Call it whatever you want, but the most asked question about this is how do we get more of it? This week we talk about a strategy you can use to help identify where the self doubt comes from, and how you can switch your perspective around into self love for growth.

There are no guarantees in life. So, let's talk about how to show up for your life by combining hard work and manifestation to reach your goals and your dreams. The best outlook on life comes from both of these. You won't live a happy life if you only rely on hard work, or if you only rely on manifestation/prayer. Both play a huge part in happiness and quality of life.

How do I empty my mind? That's a common question, and misconception about meditation. Meditation actually causes you to get into your head. It doesn't make you clear your mind, it makes you stop and think. It makes you think about you and your life, the impact you have on the world, and the impact the world has on you. So this week we're talking about why meditation is so hard. I will be publishing two more short meditations this week, one on...

Also, a quick note to my listeners, thank you for voting...
Do you ever catch yourself doing something that you're not even enjoying, but you're just doing it because that's what you always do? Mindfulness can help you with time management when you become more present and notice what you're doing, instead of living on autopilot. Talk with me about a few times I shut down my habits that weren't serving me anymore, and help you to identify those times in your life too. --- Support this podcast:
Creating habits doesn't happen overnight. The way you become comfortable with the things that make you uncomfortable is by taking action with one small step at a time. You can create big results from small changes, and that's where the real growth happens in life.

Let's think about happiness holistically and how it affects our lives as a whole,...
