Life is the easiest game on earth - I am the player, judge, ref, time keeper, - how could I possibly lose the game? I am the script writer; the best part of the game is it starts anew every day. Every day I start with a blank…

I've got a lot to celebrate this weekend! I survived a whole week of non-stop technical problems and FINALLY have a brand new product ready to sell on my site!

I'm just absolutely amazed! When I first started writing I had 1 book that I wanted to write (a book about my son's journey with heart defects). I couldn't imagine being able to write anything else! But as of last night, I have one e-book and a sweet little bundle for sale. AND, I haven't even written the big book…

We live in a world of duality – there are both outer and inner laws of wealth. We need to focus on creating our inner world. We focus too much on the outer world, (the results, our income, the money we have) and not…

Many people feel trapped or restricted when foul weather dictates their comings and goings. I, on the other hand feel liberated. Firstly, I can't believe how much snow is still coming down on top of what is already here. I guess that's why they call it a blizzard! Therefore, I'm taking full advantage. Luckily, I don't really have anything of major importance that can't be rescheduled. I feel liberated because it is forcing me to stay at my home and besides the cardio chore of shoveling,…

What a week! So, last Thursday, I self-published my first book, "The Faith Challenge" and on Tuesday I hosted a workshop on Talkshoe radio with Cindy Rushton. The workshop was based on an article I wrote called "Messy Motives and Wrong Way Roads" . I've listened on Talkshoe before but never "taught" on it :). What a great experience! I learned…

At about 110 calories per medium banana (126g), bananas are a Superfood for your heart, providing an excellent source of vitamin B6 and a good source of potassium, fiber and vitamin C - nutrients that help promote heart health. Banana consumption has also been linked to lower risk of leukemia, colorectal and kidney cancer. In fact, a study published in Nutrition and Cancer found that those who consumed bananas three or more times per week had a 72% lower risk of colorectal cancer compared to… Continue

Can't de-stress if you're not stressed yet.



So, here's a thought. If you add more stress to your life prior to a non-stressful event, will you appreciate it more? This is an experiment I was willed to participate in, apparently, although, not intentionally.



Heading to NYC for a long weekend of fun and celebration with a bunch of friends, I decided that a visit to the spa would be just the ticket needed as an pre-weekend… Continue

As mom entrepreneurs, we wear so many different hats that it is truly impossible to keep up with everything and to do everything WELL. Do you find that in your life and business?



Today we have a snow day and I have a sick little guy who needs mommy to take care of him. I also have a business to run, goals to meet and things to do!! It’s days like today that truly pull me in many directions and if I allow it, frustration begin to build… Continue

Looking back at the last 30 years of my life, I realize I have a long ways to go before reaching my ideal me. When I was a kid, I wanted to fight injustice. I wanted to stand when all else was failing. When I was a teenager, I wanted to find strength to survive. My own injustices stopped me from caring about others and their issues. In college, I wanted to dream big and conquer the world. I felt that if I could escape Nebraska, I could forget my issues and live the life I wanted as intended by… Continue

Many moms’ feel spread thin these days and especially working moms. Often, I wonder if all the work is worth it. Then I take comfort knowing we each can make a difference in the world with our gifts and talents; as well as be amazingly strong role models for our children. I know when my kids complain that life isn't perfect that they also see how to achieve goals and dreams. It confirms to them they are learning because they do set goals/dreams and… Continue
