I’m not a fan of new year’s resolutions, which

I’m not a fan of new year’s resolutions, which let’s be real, become one more thing on our to-do list. And who hasn’t made the same resolution year after year without ever achieving it? I definitely have!

So this year, I’m proposing an anti-resolution. Let’s talk about what we won’t do!

For me, I’m not going to the gym this month. I’m not listening to what the world says about losing weight and how we should be “getting back on the wagon.” I’m saying no right now to the intense gym environment and the long lines for a cardio machine.

I’m not looking for a new year, new me. I am honoring the old me and her heart’s desire.

Don’t get me wrong - I’m still working out this month. But I’m choosing the workouts that my body wants: restorative yoga, walks in nature, and gentle, nurturing exercises at home. I know deep down that those workouts are what I need this month, and I trust myself. And when my body is ready for pumping some iron, I know it will let me know.

Choosing for myself is a powerful act of self-love.

Do you have an anti-resolution?

After a day of celebration, today I'm back to work

After a day of celebration, today I'm back to work! Where do you prefer to work? Is it at a desk like this one? Sometimes I set myself up here. It’s comfy and efficient. I’ll be honest, other days I work from my bed!👩🏻‍💻

Wherever you work, make sure it’s a space that makes you feel good. We all need a quiet, dedicated space where we can plan, focus, and create! Flowers or plants nearby will add some life to the space. Sitting near a window for a view of the outdoors when you need a screen break is also a great idea.

If you’re still working from home, where do you like to work and why?

Let’s be real—it’s so tempting this time of

Let’s be real—it’s so tempting this time of year to think we have to overhaul our diet (or start one). That’s because society tells us this is the time to “get healthy” and lose weight.

If you’ve been making those plans because you think it’s what you should be doing in January, I give you permission to stop.

Instead, I challenge you to think about your motivation behind getting healthy or losing weight.

Are you depriving yourself this month because of how you indulged over the holidays? Do you think you have to “fix” your body?

Friends, I’m here to tell you that there’s nothing to fix. Your body is amazing! And if you indulged in December (and I hope you did after the wild year we just had!), you don’t have to spend this month punishing yourself for it. All you can do is listen to your body and honor what it is asking you for today.

So instead of hopping on the latest diet (there’s the word DIE in diet, you know!), what about just committing to making loving choices for yourself always. Which sometimes may look like indulging in chocolate cake and other days a big batch of green juice. But either way, it’s about loving yourself—all of you—exactly the way you are.

Share this with a friend who needs to hear this too!

I admire Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.—as a leader

I admire Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.—as a leader, a guide, and a visionary—who courageously fought for civil rights and equality.

Here’s my favorite Dr. King quote that is still so relevant today:

“Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”

Dr. King was right. You don’t have to know the final outcome or the entire roadmap to get started. This is true in your anti-racism work, your business, and your life. Your consistent actions will add up to big results. And you already have what you need within you to start.

Successful CEOs read (or listen to) books. And lot

Successful CEOs read (or listen to) books. And lots of them! I’m a big believer in reading, and I try to read one book every two weeks. Most weeks you’ll find me reading 2-3 different titles at a time!📖📗

Some of my favorite genres are leadership and personal development. I read 26 books last year. Check my stories today to see some of my favorites!

What do you want in your home, your life, and your

What do you want in your home, your life, and your business when we emerge from this pandemic? To get there, you must start the work now.

There’s no need to wait until your kids are back in school or everything goes back to “normal.” As if that is a thing!

If anything, 2020 has taught us 2 things - the future is unpredictable, and life is short. Now is the time to start creating the life you want. What are you waiting for?

This can be done by setting and focusing on one goal at a time. Let’s start by thinking about goals you have for your home. Write down one goal and your motivation behind it. Then identify one thing you could do this weekend at home to get closer to that goal.

Now, go do it!😉

Some of my friends say healthy food prep can feel

Some of my friends say healthy food prep can feel like a chore. And I get that. But I choose to use it as a time for reflection.🍎 It’s not always easy, and I like to occasionally indulge just like everyone else. And let’s be honest, I indulged FAR too much in 2020 (thanks pandemic stress!). And I have the tight pants to show for it.

But having healthy food ready-to-go is a heck of a lot easier than standing in the kitchen figuring out what to feed my family after a long day of work when we’re all hangry and experiencing decision fatigue.

Plus, when the emotional eating desire hits (yep, this pandemic ain’t over yet!), I make much wiser choices when my kitchen’s stocked with ready-to-go options that feel better in this body than the carb-filled, processed junk that I would otherwise reach for.

That’s why I prep healthy snacks and meals ahead of time, so there’s something ready to go when a craving hits🥕

How do you fuel your body, mind, and creativity? And how do you feel about making time for healthy food prep? Is your negative thinking about this idea sabotaging your healthy habits?

Remember: Decisions made ahead of time will prevent sabotage later!
