Going On a Trip? Bring Conscious Relating to Travel with These 7 Questions

Relationships, Travel
conscious relating; couple in Mexico City

✈️ Before embarking on each new adventure, my partner and I have a conscious conversation designed to deepen our experience of a trip. Conscious relating is something we’ve been practicing since we met.  When we first came together as virtual strangers to live as roommates in Mexico, there were a lot of unknowns. What if our personalities and lifestyles were vastly different? What if our daily routines clashed? What if we got on each other’s nerves and there was conflict?  The typical response for me—and, I would assert for many others—is to brush these questions under the rug, let the trip unfold, and then deal [or not deal] with whatever comes up. ...

Love in the Time of Corona: A COVID Love Story

a covid love story

What happens when two virtual strangers move down to Mexico together during a worldwide pandemic? This is mine and Ryan’s COVID love story. ♡ “I’m sorry, but I don’t choose you as my person.” Ryan’s face fell from across the table. It was Saturday night—the night before we were separating while his family came to visit. After dating for a few weeks, Ryan was curious to know where my feelings were. From the start, he had been like a laser. He knew what he wanted. He knew I was who he wanted. I’ll never forget when he asked me out on our first date. He said, “you are everything I...

not getting what you want; bacalar lagoon

I thought relocating to Tulum would create exponential growth in my business. Turns out, I was wrong. The truth is: I’ve received “no” after “no” from potential clients since being here, and it’s been disheartening to say the least. It’s frustrating when you’re putting in the work and still not getting what you want. Last Thursday, I had the chance to be coached by one of my mentors and I brought this challenge to her. What I discovered was quite intriguing… When we explored what has been behind the “no’s” from potential clients, I realized that many of the people I’ve been in conversation with are not crystal clear on...

witchy new years ritual

So I have this witchy new years ritual 🔮 Every year on new year’s eve and day, I have experiences that will help me expand into, embody, and amplify the feelings and vibes I want to experience in the year ahead. For example, when ringing in 2017, my previous partner and I rented a hotel room that overlooked the city of Boston and booked a reservation at one of the finest steakhouses in the area. When we got back to our hotel room that night, we caught the last bit of fireworks over the Boston harbor. *Swoon* Talk about finery, luxury, and sweet surprise. That was the year I was...

If you’re a brand new or new-ish service-based business owner and you think you have a marketing problem, you most likely have an avoidance problem.

Willpower

When you want something, you want it.You’re persistent and determined. You’re in it for the long haul.You don’t give up or quit easily. Willpower is a blessing, right? It can be—when you’re using it as fuel to create more of what you want. Willpower is tricky because it keeps you in the game, but it can be difficult to see when you’re playing for the wrong team. Just like willpower is the magic that conjures up what you intend to create, it can also be a spell that holds you back. Maybe you’re pinning all of your hopes and dreams onto a specific outcome that’s not in the cards for...

What I’ve Learned About Speaking Your Truth: The Light & The Dark

Relationships
speaking your truth

One of the greatest acts of self-love is speaking your truth. When you’re driving yourself mad from bottling up how you feel, when you’re flat out avoiding how you feel, when you’d rather ignore someone important than share how you really feel, your truth goes unexpressed. While speaking your truth may be the scariest, most uncomfortable, most difficult thing you could ever do, speaking your truth will set you free. All of that energy you’re using to hide? It will release, redistribute, and realign to something better. I’ve learned this. Many times over the years, and especially over the past month. The thing about me is that I’m very intuitive....

What Really Happens When You Attend a Rich Litvin Intensive…

Rich Litvin Intensive

It’s quickly becoming a tradition to pull out my lap top on the flight home from a Rich Litvin Intensive to sift through the weekend. This year, my reflection will be different. Putting transformation to words is difficult. This is heart transformation, not head. Unlike last year, I didn’t go to the Rich Litvin Intensive to be a participant. I went to the Rich Litvin Intensive to be on the leadership team, which is made up of the source team and the coaching team. As a member of the source team, I volunteered to work behind-the-scenes to ensure that the event ran smoothly, while also offering support to the coaches,...

The world is falling down around you.Negative thoughts cloud your mind like thick fog in early morning.Your chest is heavy with feeling. Lead weight. It’s hard to breathe.

You work hard to create what you want and just when things start to happen, an unseen force yanks you back to where you don’t want to be.

You spend so much time here, treading water and searching for the shore, that you...

Identifying what you want in life and business is easy.Making your dreams a REALITY is an entirely different story. How do you reconcile the two? There was a particular day four years ago—October 1st, 2013 to be exact—when the U.S. government was forced to shut down, and all of the national parks were closed until further notice. While this typically wouldn’t be an issue, that day, it was. It just happened to be the day my best friend and I were leaving to go on our eight week road trip across the U.S. Our intention was to visit all of the national parks 🙈 From the moment we decided to...
