I am thankful for my life.
For years I lived.
I am thankful for the spirit
I choose in a moment.
I am thankful for sunrise
To remind of a new beginning,
Breathe deep and smile.
I am thankful for fresh air
To swallow life
and space to be.
I am thankful for the first sip of morning coffee
That slows the moment.
I close my eyes
and feel
life.
I am thankful for morning movement
To birth energy and hunger 😀
I am thankful for clarity
To flow through my day
With power I choose.
I am thankful for people
I meet along the way of life
To expend together ❤️
In communication and love.
I am thankful for struggles
To build my strength
And gift experience.
I am thankful for afternoon tea
To stop and be present
For all the goodness.
I am thankful for movie nights
To have fun and laugh 😃
I am thankful for evening glory
To slow down my speed
And be here to receive.

As we enter the busy holiday season, juggling work, personal life, and reflecting on life and business goals can feel overwhelming. It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle and lose sight of what truly matters.
In this moment of potential chaos, let's explore how to shift from confusion to clarity.
In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in a whirlwind of tasks and commitments. This can lead to confusion, stress, and a sense of being overwhelmed.
The Path from Confusion to Clarity is Simplicity
By simplifying our lives, we can reduce stress, increase our overall well-being, and see our mission, vision and passion with more clarity.
Here are a few steps to help you move from confusion to clarity:
Identify the Source of Confusion:
Say No to Non-Essentials:
Imagine
waking up in the morning, feeling rested and excited in anticipation of what's to come. No more groggy mornings or feeling overwhelmed. You've built a self-care routine that helps you navigate life's challenges with ease.
Remember those days of feeling down and out? Well, those are long gone. You've learned to quiet your mind and focus on what truly matters. You've replaced negative thinking with positive affirmations and gratitude.
Now, you choose healthy foods that nourish your body. You love the way you look and feel. You walk past the mirror with appreciation rather than self-loathing. Gone are the days of self-doubt and body shaming. You've embraced self-love and appreciation.
You actually look forward to your workouts. You've discovered the power of movement and the incredible feeling of strength and energy it brings.
This is the foundation of a truly empowered life. You're no longer living in sickness; you're thriving in wellness. Your personal well-being fuels your...
Have you ever wondered what truly drives your success? What are those essential elements that, if you were to let go of them, would derail your progress?
In this email, I want to delve into the concept of non-negotiables for success and how they can be the key to unlocking your full power.
What are Non-Negotiables?
Non-negotiables are the fundamental habits that you simply cannot compromise on. They are the building blocks of your success, whether it's in your career, relationships, health, or personal growth. When you upgrade your non-negotiables, you upgrade your life!
Why are Non-Negotiables Important?
We often forget the most crucial element: taking care of ourselves – body, mind, and soul. This self-care is the foundation for everything we do. Self-care is not selfish; it's necessary!
Why Self-Care Matters
Think back to a time you were stressed or burnt out. Was it easy to achieve your goals or feel happy? Probably not.
When we prioritize self-care, we're like well-maintained vehicles. We have the energy, focus, and resilience to navigate life's challenges and reach our full potential. Remember, self-care is vital! Self-care is NOT a compromise.
The difference between seeing self-care, or any actions we do, as chore or choice is our internal state of being. Take your actions from INSPIRED state of being!
Follow these 3 proven steps:
We’re all busy juggling life’s demands, from work to family to personal goals. We strive for success, but sometimes, we forget the most important thing: ourselves.
In our quest to achieve our dreams, we often prioritize everything else over our own well-being. We pour our energy into relationships, careers, and community involvement, but neglect the one person who needs our support the most: ourselves.
Imagine this:
you’re pouring from an empty cup. How can you expect to give your best to others when you’re running on fumes? The truth is, taking care of yourself isn’t selfish; it’s essential.
Think about it:
we focus so much on work, relationships, and other responsibilities that you often neglect our own needs. We might skip meals, miss workouts, or ignore your mental health. And yet, we expect to be productive, energetic, and happy. How can we expect to feel happy and powerful if we do not generate feeling happy and powerful with our own intentions (non-negotia...
I want to share three valuable business lessons I learned while creating my Posture Mastery Course.
These lessons can help you achieve your goals, regardless of your industry or profession.
Lesson 1: It's Never Too Late
One of the biggest misconceptions is that it's too late to start something new. Let me tell you, that's simply not true. I became a fitness trainer at 42, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
Remember, it's never too late to pursue your passions and make a difference. Just start small and take consistent steps towards your goals. Baby steps!
Lesson 2: Overcome Your Inner Critic
We all have that negative voice in our heads that doubts our abilities and holds us back. It's important to recognize this voice for what it is: a survival mechanism that's trying to protect us.
Instead of letting it hold you back, acknowledge its presence and choose to ignore it. Focus on your goals (there are just stepping-stones) and take action despite yo...
The way we carry ourselves speaks volumes before we even utter a word. Our posture is not just about how we look; it's a significant part of our non-verbal communication, influencing how confident, competent, and positive we appear to others.
Here are 7 essential tips drawn from expert advice on mastering your posture, each designed to enhance your personal and professional development.
1. Understand the Importance of Proper Posture:
Recognizing the crucial role posture plays in our lives is the first step. It's more than aesthetics; it's about how we present ourselves to the world. Good posture is aligned with confidence and positivity, affecting both our self-perception and how others perceive us.
2. Leverage First Impressions:
Your posture is a key player in the kind of first impression you leave. As soon as you step into a room, your posture is silently communicating your confidence and positivity. This makes mastering good posture essential for impactful non-verbal commu...

These are the two most important non-negotiable habits of the fitness & movement pillar of health for a healthy and fit lifestyle.
Stop wasting money on gym memberships!
The fitness industry has misled us into believing that hitting the gym is the only path to wellness. Our ancestors were fit without gyms! They moved naturally through daily activities like hunting, gathering, and gardening. Read "The Blue Zones of Happiness" book. While some of these activities are still relevant, others aren't so much.
What can we do?
The Solution: Back to Basics!
Before diving into intense workouts, focus on building a strong foundation. These are the levels of developing movement as a habitual way of being vs. just a desired behavior we keep talking about it.
