Hello Creative Dreamer!
Today I will share with you why you might be feeling stuck, even though you are actively pursuing your dreams.
Stand Up For Yourself & Overcome Helplessness
Hello Empowered Spirit!
Today we will talk about those people in our lives who believe that they have the best intentions for us, and have mistreated us, misguided us, or overprotected us. This can be parents, spouses, siblings, or anyone in your life who you may have tolerated their over-bearing personality to the degree that you feel helpless and don’t feel like you have the courage to stand up to them and let them know that you have had enough.
No matter how well their intentions, you need to take charge of your own life, and make your own decisions, even if it means that you will make mistakes. Learned helplessness is when we have tolerated a situation so many times, that it doesn’t seem like there is an alternative. But the good news is that there is! This is YOUR life, and it is up to YOU what you do or don’t do, and anyone who doesn’t agree needs to kindly be ejected.
Sometimes out of our need for approval or belonging, we feel that we have to do things in a certain way to make other people happy. The truth is that your happiness should come before anyone else’s, not out of selfishness, but out of self respect. Respect yourself, by standing up to the other person. Let them know that they need to respect you and your choices, and that you will not continue to do things their way. This can take serious courage, but you will feel better once all is said and done. If the other person argues or decides to leave, that is their choice, and you need to respect that, and move on.

The Sun, The Moon, and The Earth
Hello Wise Chooser!
Today let’s talk about our need to always be on one side of the spectrum. Our brains are wired in such a way that we often believe that we MUST choose left or right, that we MUST make the right decision, and that everything is either white or black. Today I want to encourage you to join your greatest dreams, and your fears, and let them become one, and neither at the same time. You don’t have to choose to be like the sun, or to be like the moon. Instead be like the earth, which embraces both, and contains neither. You are much more than meets the eye, allow yourself the opportunity to expand, and be as generous and life giving as the wonderful Earth that we live in.

The Self-Discovery Experience and Shoe Shopping
Hello Friendly Spirit!
Today I will talk about the importance of knowing yourself, who you are, and what you need. The analogy I use to paint a visual picture is going shoe shopping. Going shoe shopping can be a fun and exciting experience when you know yourself, what you want, and what you need. I will cover the difference of what it looks like to go through the self-discovery process, and what it looks like when we don’t choose that route. A lot of life is a process of elimination, and the more we know ourselves the more light-hearted and fun the journey will be. On the other hand, not knowing ourselves can leave us feeling frustrated, exhausted, resentful, and even angry. At the core of your existence is a true self, that when nurtured and listened to, can help you live a happier and more exciting life.

Be Brave Enough To Walk Directly Towards Your Desires
Hello Fearless Warrior!
Today’s quote reads ” The Brave Don’t Live Forever, But The Cautious don’t live at all. ” Life has many challenges and twists and turns that try to deviate us from our truest and deepest desires. Furthermore we allow our fears and the distractions that we create to hold us back from what we really want. There can be so many excuses and maybe the obstacles in the way seem overwhelming. So we decide to walk indirectly, kind of half-ass towards our truest desires.
We think this will be more safe, plus we have a plan b, c, d, and e, if it all fails. Being brave enough to set your fears and distractions aside, and going DIRECTLY towards what you really want takes courage and determination. You must remember that you are not going to live forever, so if you decide to be cautious and careful, you can be leaving a lot of living and excitement on the table. Simply because you were too scared to go directly in the direction of your dreams.
