Is your mentality an asset or a liability?

In other words, does your mindset help or hinder you? Are you focused on how to improve your life? Or simply maintain it even though you’re dissatisfied? Do you think in terms of growth or lack? Are you working on becoming more, or less? Are you ambitious or complacent? Which do you do more: complain? […]

Regina George Alchemy Goals

For those who haven’t seen mean girls, Regina George is THE MEANEST. She’s bossy, queen bee, all the negative feminine archetypes you can imagine. BUT… You can’t deny, she’s an alchemist! Remember the scene where Cady Heron cut two holes in her tank top? Her purple bra was peeking through? What did Regina George do? […]

The more you WANT…the less you GET

The more you WANT, the less you GET. Why the hell is that? Doesn’t it suck? Why yes, friend. It does suck. But it’s true. Haven’t you noticed? Whenever you want something super bad, it’s like every sort of disaster that could stand in the way of it… does. It’s not until we stop wanting, […]

Accepting that you may not be everyone’s cuppa tea 🫖

Good day, everyone. This post is about self acceptance. One of my absolute favorite sitcoms of all time is The Game starring Tia Mowry and Pooch Hall, the story of a young couple being broken in to the wild world of pro football culture in San Diego. At one point, the couple splits and Derwin, […]

What cooking without a meat thermometer taught me about CONFIDENCE

We recently moved from Colorado to Atlanta, and the meat thermometer decided it wanted to stay in the west I guess. As such, lately I’ve been cooking meat without one. *cue ominous music* I’ve been making a lot of chicken on the stovetop and I quickly realized how much I’d given my confidence to that […]

Signs you are a People-Pleaser…and remedies…

I hope he thinks I’m cute! What will they say if I wear this? Maybe I shouldn’t do that…what if they say… These are the typical thoughts of a people pleaser. How do I know? Because I’ve been a pleaser. Fortunately, I’ve also been a complete i-don’t-give-a-rat’s-right-ass-cheek-what-you-think type as well. In short, I’m familiar with […]

Needs vs. Wants: Can we have it all?

Online shopping OR Work on my business? Brownie OR broccoli? Netflix Binge OR Workout? Why does it always seem like we’re at war between what we know we need, and what we want? Why are these two things always battling each other and what can we do to fix it? I’ll be blunt. I have […]

Ariel vs. Ursula Mentality: Which one do you use?

Ursula: “The only way to get what you want…is to become human yourself…” Ariel: *Widened eyes…* “Can you do that?” Ursula: “My dear sweet child..That’s what I do! It’s what I live for. To help unfortunate mer-folk like yourself…” … Ariel: “But I won’t get to see my family if I become human…” Ursula: “But […]

How to use your emotions

An emotion, by it’s very nature, is energy moving. This is good news for those of us who find ourselves stuck in certain emotions. Why? Because you can change them—emotions move!
