Resistance is NOT our friend and never has been. Allow me to explain … Any war-like activities and thoughts will always be met with resistance. Why? Because like attracts like. It is a Universal Law no matter how much we want to call it bunk, fairy dust or my fave: “new age” LOL. War-like thinking attracts more war-like thinking. Violence thinking attracts more violence thinking. Looking at what we don’t want (or want to eliminate) attracts more of what we don’t want. The fight against against drugs, fight against crime, fight against obesity, war rooms, punching fear in the face, and so many other war-violence-like phrases and slogans are simply setting our society up for more resistance and the attraction of more of what we don’t want. Hello? Why continue to attempt “to fix” something with the same mind-set and behavior that didn’t work before. On the other hand, when we look at the process of creation, it will take as long as we CHOOSE. We choose to manifest something into our reality by focusing on the process of creation. And it can be done quickly – as soon as we make the decision. Imagine what we could do as a society if we collectively shifted our mindset. How can we help create a happier society filled with peace and love? We start with ourselves. We start by being aware of what we are saying, thinking, doing. That’s called personal response-ability. That’s called a cooperative society where everyone WINS. Read more:...

Your self-worth is not dependent on anything outside of you. Here’s what I mean. Be mindful of people who put conditions on your relationship with them. (At another time I’ll explain WHY they do this and it isn’t about you. If you’ve read my book, “BEing Spiritually Intelligent”, you already know.) Here are some examples of how people put conditions on themselves based on outside sources: – The need to feel good about yourself only when you have someone else’s or a group of people’s approval, attention or praise. – Self-esteem is only elevated when you feel you are part of the ‘crowd’ or accepted by the ‘team’ often going to great lengths to do or say anything for a pat on the back. TIP: A heart-based team doesn’t put conditional expectations on its members – obvious or subtle. Example: “I’ll only accept you as part of the team if you meet criteria that makes me feel better about myself or what I’m doing.” If this is the case, this is not the right group for you. – Feeling less than or left out if you don’t have a significant other, pet, children, etc. – Feeling that ‘if you only had’ that job, shiny job title or a specific square footage in your home, an X brand car, met a specific goal, in a specific tax bracket, and on and on and on. This is all drama-like stuff we make up that puts conditions on ourselves, which is why we continually look outside of ourselves for acceptance and acknowledgment that we are ‘okay’ or loveable, etc. It’s an illusion – a power(less) loop that will not stop until we start understanding that NONE of it matters, and it’s all a lie that we tell ourselves or someone is wanting us to believe. Stop the insanity and self-abuse. Help yourself. BE respectful of yourself by valuing your strengths, noticing without judgment your weaknesses and strengthening your weakness IF it suits YOU. There is no rush to do it. Life was not created to hurry up and get to the destination – death. It was created to enjoy the process of life. Truly, you have everything you need right now, all you have to do is choose to recognize it and use it. It’s okay to go out and collect data from others – that’s how we learn to strengthen our own intuition. But do not idolize anyone. Bring the data back and try it on for size – for you. Keep what works for your own core values, morals and ethics. Discard the rest, because it does not fit the reality YOU choose to live in. That’s key to developing...

You will never find time for anything. If you want time, you have to make it. -Charles Broxton. In other words, we all have the same amount of time. No one gets extra for good behavior. It’s about priority. So how do you set priorities on your time when there is so much to do? Simple but not always easy. It’s not easy because in order to do this, you have to learn how to design your life around what matters most. This takes focus and respecting yourself by not allowing distractions. Sometimes it won’t be met with acceptance by people who have their own agenda for us. This also means learning to say no, putting things on a ‘someday-maybe’ list or simply letting them go: “yes, it’s a good idea but it isn’t a choice that will get me what I want. Step back from it all and look at a bigger picture. If you want X you have to take actions that are in alignment with X and not with Y and Z as well as A, B, and C. So where do you want to be in a year? Perhaps you want a meaningful relationship, inspiring job that uses your creativity, closer relationship with your family, better health, more travel or at least the finances that would make travel possible. Or maybe you just want to be happier and confident – have more get up and go. Whatever it is you want, you can have. In fact, most of the things you don’t think you have, you already do. (More on that another time.) Here’s my point, what you are doing today is a snapshot of your life. Multiple what you are doing today by 365 and that’s what your life will look like a year from now. See the movie in your mind of your life? Are you liking the movie? If not, make a change – now. Don’t wait. If you’ve read my book, you’ve heard part of this story. For 20+ years I was haunted by the life I was not living. The life I was not living was my purpose. Yes, your higher self knows why you came here and is always nudging, poking and sometimes pushing you to move forward with WHY you are here. It took me over 20 years to put into action the book inside me that was keeping me up at night. Thank goodness for my book mentor, Neale Donald Walsh (bestselling author of the series, Conversations With God) who challenge me to challenge myself to get it done in 5 months AND still do my health coaching work. So my first Volume in the series, “BEing...

Happy Physical Birthday to my late Mother, Elizabeth Ann Abrams. She would have been 85 today. As many of you know, my momma birthed into spirit in the early morning on May 23rd this year. But what you may not know is that she’s been with me ever since guiding me through each day. I have not yet publicly spoken about it until now. The evening of May 23rd I lay in her bed and spoke to her as vulnerably, transparently and intimately as I have ever spoke to anyone. I asked her to be my guardian angel and to guide me in a way that I would know with 100% confidence that each step I took for the rest of my life was congruent with the path of my life purpose. I honestly felt she was there, and without any doubt I felt she agreed. I cannot form into human words how I knew, but I did. The next morning I received 100% confirmation. And from that day forward I have been receiving intense intuitive hits (not minor flashes) that indicate exactly my next step to help myself as well as guide others along their path through empowerment, love, compassion and appreciation. Allow me to explain … The next morning my sisters came to mom’s home (where I was staying) and so did their children. My youngest sister’s future DIL brought a thoughtfully sympathy gift for her. It was the photo of the towel you see below with the words: “My mom is my guardian angel, my heart mender, my best friend.” Seeing these words were intense confirmation, so much so I had to sit down. However, the little purple flowers were the cherry on top of the angelic cake. When she got sick in March, I quickly stopped at a nearby grocery after my plane landed, and found a small pot of delicate, beautiful little purple flowers just like the ones in the image. They felt right. I followed my intuition and heart when I chose them for her. She loved them and spoke about them often. Every day since then she guides me and brings to me intuitive hits often as strong as the first. She’s been with me through every tear, challenge, triumph, and blissful moment. In February when we found the house we recently moved to and was put on a waiting list, she told me she hoped that we got it soon. Soon after her passing, we got the call that it would be available 9 months sooner than we anticipated. Again, it’s been an amazing process to personally experience the angelic side in this physical world. My message to you is to...
