I Feel Like 17

My new favorite song is “Brand New“ by Ben Rector. It’s a good feeling song that makes my heart and soul smile. Before I heard “Brand New”, while talking and really listening to a friend,  I watched their expressions as they spoke. For some reason, at that moment, it made me think about what they were like … More I Feel Like 17

Your Inner Hero

A few weeks back I was driving along and a song came on the radio that got my brain thinking.

Think Fearless

There is no such thing as a life without fear. When we understand the fear that comes and go in our life and we learn how to deal with and use it, it changes us. It protests us and strengthen us. Focus on the positive side of what could be!

Just Chill

Experiencing autumn in the Ozark Mountains is an experience like no other. Every year these mountains make the list of places to see in the fall. The view in late October is simply breathtaking. Even with being surrounded with such beauty I can often become narrow focused and instead of seeing what is happening around … More Just Chill

CHOICES

Recently, one of my life coaching clients was struggling with negative thoughts. As we spoke, he realized that he kept connecting his current struggles to his past, to old issues he hasn’t worked through. “He who doesn’t look ahead, remains behind.” — Proverbs We concluded that although his history and his upbringing are a huge part of who he … More CHOICES
