The Genius Within
Not too long ago I came across a book that resonated with thoughts that I have had for some time. I’ll introduce this idea by saying that my whole life I have had times where I have felt like I was meant for something more than what I was doing/being. Have you ever felt like […]
Sexual Wellness
A big part of wellness that most people don’t like to talk about (myself included) is our sexual health. Being married almost 24 years, that subject has come up a few times! I don’t claim to be an expert in this field whatsoever, but over the years we have journeyed around this subject and […]
Bottle Your Moments
Six years ago I decided to go for a Saturday afternoon bike ride with my daughter Piper. The day was phenomenal! A perfect 28 degrees, not a cloud in the sky, ice cream by the beach and no complaining from the daughter for our 2 hour jaunt. You know those days when all […]
Friendship
I was driving home today from a fabulous weekend away in Vancouver and I was struck by how good I felt to have spent time with some great friends. The weekend started with going to Vancouver to support Sharon, my friend and client in her first Figure Competition. The way we chatted on the […]

There are very few skills and abilities that are not shared by thousands, and still, no one will express their creativity and abilities quite the way YOU do. I want to introduce today’s guest blogger, Laurie Bowman. Laurie is a designer/entrepreneur and […]
Creativity with Vulnerability
I watched the most inspiring interview with Brene Brown and Chase Jarvis. The topic was creativity and in the interview Brene proposed that there is ‘no creativity without vulnerability’. I recall sitting in front of my computer a few years ago, trying to write a blog post about the pain I felt for not being […]
Sleep, Glorious Sleep.
I think the majority of humans are in the same boat when it comes to sleep. When we don’t get enough, it can alter every aspect of our day! When I train clients who have had 8 hours of sleep vs those who have had 5 or less, the difference in their energy, drive and […]
Spiritual Wellness with Guest Brett Glanzmann
When I think about what spiritual wellness means to me, there certainly are a lot of past memories that come to mind. I grew up going to Sunday school and youth group and while I took away a lot of significant beliefs, over the years I also developed an inner drive to be perfect, to […]
