How I Chose to See my Biggest Flaw as my Greatest Gift

Do you remember that annoying girl in high school who would preach about the dangers of underage drinking & drugging? Or that partner who put you up on a pedestal and only chose to see the very best within you, even if you didn’t feel as awesome as s/he made you out to be? Yup. That was me. One of my greatest gifts is the ability to see & cultivate the highest potential in those around me. As a result, it’s easy for people to feel like their better selves in my presence. While this is a beautiful gift to have, I didn’t understand how to best utilize it when...

Is Your Debt Consuming You? Read This.

Reinvent

DEBT. Do you have it? How does it make you feel? What comes up for you? Typically, the word debt conjures up icky feelings—shame, guilt, frustration, fear—and often times, we suffer in silence because it’s not something we feel comfortable talking about. It doesn’t have to be this way, though. In fact, if your feelings are predominantly negative towards your debt, it’s likely that you’ll continue to attract more of it because when you become so consumed with worry over your financial situation, you actually send out an energetic signal to the Universe to bring you more worry. Remember—YOU create your reality and your thoughts dictate what shows up in...

Turn Off Your Light: How Disowning Your Darkness is Slowing Your Success

Reinvent

Did you know that I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology? Or that I was the Valedictorian of my college class? Or that I worked for four years as a Residential Counselor, coaching young adults with mental illness? Maybe you did. Maybe you didn’t. Either way, I don’t speak about these much. So when my cousin stood up at the end of my workshop this past weekend to announce that I was short-changing myself and my credentials, I honestly felt really angry with her. I knew she wasn’t trying to be harsh or brag about my accomplishments, but it still made me feel really uncomfortable and I wasn’t sure why....

Manifesting More Success: Tap Into Your Magic by Celebrating Every Little Thing

Create, Reinvent

When was the last time you celebrated? Like, really celebrated? If you didn’t answer TODAY, then you aren’t taking full advantage of the magic that’s available to you. Celebrating is KEY when it comes to manifesting more success. Why? Because when you celebrate every little thing, big or small, you build momentum in the RIGHT direction. If you’re constantly stuck in the energetic pattern of “this isn’t working, nothing good ever happens to me, I suck, I’ll never be successful,” well, guess what you’re going to get more of? Your life or business NOT working. Like attracts like. Whatever you focus on, you get more of in your life. So...

“I’m Not Worthy.” How Bali Shifted My Perspective on Personal & Professional Worth.

Explore, Reinvent

I went to Bali to write my book. What happened in Bali was far greater than anything I had hoped to accomplish. It was a beautiful unfolding of fate—a divine intervention waiting to happen. Sisterhood was forged. Life-changing insight was revealed. What I found was friendship, clarity, and an unshakable faith. I admitted things I hadn’t even admitted to myself. I found answers I didn’t even know I was looking for. It’s funny how travel does that. With every venture into the unknown, a new layer of yourself is revealed. You learn things. You make connections. You see things in a different light. Life finally makes sense and just as...

When Life Hands You Lemons, Go to Bali

Explore

I’m still in shock that I’m flying half way across the world tomorrow… To write my book. In Bali. On a Writer’s Retreat. How crazy is it that dreams you thought weren’t happening for years, HAPPEN?! It all began last Wednesday evening, as I was flipping through the worn pages of my travel journal and came across an entry that stopped my heart. Here’s what I wrote: “I realized, that for the first time, mental illness was absent from my every day life. I interacted with other people like me–driven, motivated, passionate. They were all “normal” people, living a life of their own personal effort. Most were very successful. I...

It’s Time To Get Raw & Tell You What’s Really Behind All Of This

Reinvent

How did I get here? Maybe you’ve wondered why I’ve detoured so far from fitness and re-routed completely towards mindset & personal growth… Maybe you haven’t. Either way, I’m ready to tell you the story. It’s not going to be easy for me. I’m not completely comfortable delving into this wound, but I’ve been hiding it for far too long and I want you to know that no matter how much success it appears I’ve been having, it hasn’t always been like this. My story starts in the budding days of summer when my business BOOMED. The debut of my wildly successful 7 Day Summer Abs Challenge led to three...

How to Become More Successful With This One Radical Truth

Reinvent

If I asked you, “do you feel successful?” What would you say? The answers I’ve heard most often are: “Yes, but…” “I’ll get there someday.” “Nope, not at all.” These answers break my heart because it doesn’t have to be this way, but I also totally get why it is this way. I would have said the same things a few months ago. Ever since I can remember, I’ve held the bar extremely high for myself. When I’ve been successful in others’ eyes, I’ve felt lacking in my own. In fact, when it came time to reflect on my first year in business, I felt that familiar feeling of disappointment;...

The One Thing You Need to Do to Create Massive Change in Your Life

Create

The one thing you need to do to create massive change in your life has to do with your mindset. There’s a certain mindset you need to have when you want to create the changes you want to see. Whether you want to create a healthy body, an amazing relationship, more money, or a career that lights you up, first and foremost, you are going to have to work on your mind. Mindset is the stream from which everything flows. Think about it: everything that was ever created, whether it’s the light bulb or your favorite pair of shoes, was first a thought in someone’s mind. What enables that person...
