I was someone before I had my son. Once I became a mom, who was I other than my little man’s mom? And was I going to become “someone” again? And if so, who? Or what? And how? And when? After the little man entered my life, I discovered pretty quickly that my legal career, while at times exciting, generally prestigious, and certainly lucrative, was no longer working for me. I saw other people “pulling it off”, but not in... View Article
As a kid, one could have reasonably concluded I was either lazy or didn’t like reading, because every year that my school assigned mandatory Summer reading, I refused to crack any of the books on the list. If you know me, you know that lazy isn’t an attribute that particularly applies to me.

When we retrain our minds to a positive frequency, we experience the painful emotions of rejection no more. How good does that sound? While you’re here, please show us a little love... View Article
Hi Guys! This week we’re talking about moving out of our comfort zones and trying something NEW! Stop saying you’re not the TYPE to do something, and instead give that something a shot – you never know what a little new adventure, a little risk might attract into your life. And even if it’s not something you want to try yourself, just by shifting your thinking away from “type-casting”, you’ll find yourself less judgmental, and maybe even judged less by... View Article
