Pulled, pushed, pressured and seeking balance

Two weeks ago I went on a very last minute vacation to Pigeon Forge, TN with my grandparents. We were gone for 5 days and I was only online twice during the trip. I had some work to do the 2nd night we were there so I spent the evening in the hotel working while my grandparents enjoyed a night out. After that I didn’t even touch or turn on my laptop for 3 whole glorious days! It was the… Continue Reading…

Losing Weight… Getting back on track when you fall off…

someonewhosbusierisrunning

I’ve been a bad girl the past two weeks. Not a bad, bad girl, just a bad girl… I was doing so good. I was eating right and working out 3 or 4 times a week. I was on Week 4 of the Couch to 5K program. I lost 12 pounds and was feeling okay about that number and great about my new habits. Then it happened… Life, that is, life happened. I had a really crazy, busy, overwhelming, stressful… Continue Reading…

Once upon a time there was this young lady who had a lot of things going for her. She had a great business, lots of friends, a wonderful family.  She had overcome some pretty big obstacles to get to where she was. After years of self-doubt and valuing herself based on what others thought, she was finally coming to realize and believe that she was a worthwhile person. She wanted more than anything to help others, to inspire and encourage… Continue Reading…

Losing Weight and Finding Myself…

hungerquote

A couple months ago I applied to be part of a 6 month blogger program with a well known health & weight loss company. I really wanted to be chosen for this program. There were 50 spots and almost 300 bloggers who applied so I knew my chances were slim. I wrote a really long post for my application about my struggle to lose weight and how I was ready to make a change. I submitted my application and I… Continue Reading…

A few of my favorite Stephen Covey quotes

liveoutofyourimagination stephencovey

I just read on CNN that Stephen Covey passed away today. His books and articles have inspired and motivated millions of people including me.  If you haven’t ever read the “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” or “The Eighth Habit” or frankly any of his books, I would definitely encourage you to do so.  Those in direct sales, business owners, managers and leadership positions will especially benefit from them.  May he rest in peace & my prayers go out to his… Continue Reading…

For the past year I have felt lost. Ever since I turned 30 in May of 2011 I’ve just been almost miserable and completely discontent.  Everything has changed so much in the past year, but in a lot of ways nothing has changed.  I started letting go of my direct sales business because of several reasons.  I keep saying it is because I was burned out, but I don’t really know if that is true or it’s just an easy… Continue Reading…
