Serotonin Boost
I don't know about you, but I could definitely use more happy juice (aka serotonin) in my body. I've been getting the sunshine, I exercise, I take my vitamins and have a massage scheduled in a couple days, but the rest…I'm lacking a bit. Good reminder that if I want...
Inspired
I was trying out a new gym class. At the end of it a woman came up to me and said, "Someday I hope to be as strong as you." It completely took me by surprise. I had walked in there feeling weak and out of shape, but she didn't see me that way. #inspired...
Laughter & Dogs
Happy Friday my friends! Make sure, above all else, that there is always some laughter in your life. And a dog. Even if it is someone else's dog you visit. Being a person is hard sometimes, but laughter and dogs make everything better. Promise! #laughteranddogs...
Reflection
I've noticed two types of people emerge from this last year...those who used it as an excuse to take it easy and those who used it as a reason to change their life. Even within myself I see both of those things. My exercise and nutrition got put on the back burner a...

Downtime
I struggle with this. Even when I do rest, I spend the entire time thinking about all of the things that I should be doing. And then the following hours or days regretting what I didn't get accomplished in that "wasted time." On the flip side, I am always looking...
Vogue
I feel that to my core most days…LOL! But when I really look at each issue, there is a blessing in every single one. #fridayfunny #moreissuesthanvogue #lunchboxwisdoms #wendyswisdoms
Begin
I was in the middle of a divorce, a single mom with a mortgage to pay, had been working as an assistant to several real estate agents and seeing the potential, but also knowing the risk. Was I terrified of committing myself to a commission only job? Absolutely! I also...
Choose Your Words Wisely
How easily this is forgotten in our day to day interactions. I recently had a conflict situation and instead of using words of compassion and grace, I felt it was important to voice "my side" of things. How I saw it from my point of view. Instead of being received as...
