One of my favorite parts about doing what I’m doing is getting to hear your stories. Whether it’s that of triumph, you rediscovering who you are, finding JOY in the quiet moments, and even the struggles. It’s what keeps me going. The stories I hear from our community are bold, powerful, and a constant reminder […]
How often do you get to play? When we were kids, it was a requirement. A natural part of our day where we could tap into our own imagination and creativity. As adults, we abandoned every day play. Opting to pull it out for a few days or a week of vacation here and there. […]
It’s the most wonderful time of year. You might assume that I’m talking about the Holiday Season, but the truth is— for me it’s because of the New Year. I’ve never been a fan of waiting until the New Year to start new goals. However, it’s almost impossible to be this close to the […]
This past Saturday, I hosted Pop of Color: LA in a gorgeous loft in Santa Monica. It went better than I could ever imagine. The women who attended were warm and funny and allowed themselves to be open and vulnerable in their sharing. We set intentions to bring an energy of fun, flexibility and positivity […]
I was reading one of those astrology memes the other day and mine was: “Aries….Do it your way, even if your way is stupid. Just make everything worse” Damn, astrology meme, why you have to be so accurate? I’m totally guilty of making things harder than they need to be. In fact, sometimes it feels […]
Have you ever REALLY wanted to do something— like go to a concert, or take a trip, or maybe something smaller like an in town event. You call up all your friends and they’re really just not that into it. They all have some reason why they can’t attend with you. In those moments, what […]
I was chatting with a friend the other day who was venting to me about her relationship. Suddenly, she caught herself. “I’m sorry, girl. I shouldn’t be complaining. I mean, at least he isn’t cheating on me.” See…what we’re not going to do is get caught up in what I like to call the “At […]
I’m a summer girl at heart but I’m a big fan of September because it still signals to me the start of a new year. We’re shaking off the summer laziness, kids are going back to school, business prospects are ready to get started again. And you still have 4 months left in the year […]
Adventure, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Before I had children, my idea of adventure was always something grand, similar to my Senior Trip after high school graduation, when I went on a road trip through Yosemite, Mammoth and Lake Tahoe with some friends. I’m still astonished my parents let me go […]
I have a pretty common journey to entrepreneurship story: I landed my “dream job” right out of college and quickly learned that the corporate world was just not for me. I summoned all of my courage, saved my coins and made the decision to quit my job and go into business for myself. I never […]
