Count Your Blessings

Happy Holidays to you, dear friend!
Take a moment, right now, to reflect on all the wonderful things that found their way to you over the past year. (I bet there are thousands.)
Think of the lessons you learned, the unexpected opportunities that came your way and the people you met who changed your life for the better.
Think about the things you created, the experiences that enriched you and the beautiful things you learned about yourself.
Whether this year was your best yet, felt like a stumbling block or was the starting point of something new, I know, without a doubt, that it delivered you the precise lessons, people and insights that you needed.
Trust the timing of your life. Trust that it's unfolding just as it's supposed to.
For the first time since August of 2012 (when this message went out to just 65 people!), I am doing something I've never done before -- well actually 2 things I've never done before.
First, I'm sharing a special holiday message with you in song. I love singing and was always a part of singing groups, choirs and a cappella groups when I was growing up, but it's something I've never shared with you.
And, the second thing, this will be the last time you hear from me.......until 2016. After this greeting reaches you, I encourage you (just as I will be doing) to take some time off from your habitual to-dos to savor the splendidness of the holidays. Check your emails a little less, put your phone on silent (or turn it off!), let your to-do list sit for a few days, and simply enjoy this lovely season. Give yourself that gift. (And, we'll resume our weekly interludes on Wednesday, January 6th.)
Listen to your special holiday message below.

Download your Numbered Guide to Gratitude here. It will only take you a few minutes to complete and will enable you to clearly see the profound gifts, opportunities and lessons that 2015 offered you.
Then, when we return in 2016, you and I will be ready to get started because we'll have replenished ourselves. At that point, if you want to create your clear and thoughtful roadmap to success, let's chat.
Sending you love + wishes for a joyous holiday season!

A Gift for You - My Favorite Meditation Practice

I promised you last week that I would share more details of my favorite meditation with you.
This is the meditation I do nearly every morning, and it has had a profound impact on me personally and professionally. Some benefits being...feeling all-around happier, more grounded, and more successful, as well as feeling aligned with my creativity, innate potential and purpose.
In short, it’s a winner.
As a pre-holiday gift for you, I want to share this practice which has been so meaningful and transformative for me.
I’ve recorded a version of this meditation for you to enjoy. It’s only 8 minutes in length and will leave you feeling calm, clear and confident in your abilities to become the very best version of yourself both professionally and personally.

Meditations work best (as do all personal development tools) when they are practiced.
My suggestion?
Give yourself the gift of 8 minutes of daily calm, quiet time. We ALL can give 8 minutes of time to ourselves. We all have that choice.
From now until the new year, I invite you to sit with me each day. Give yourself that gift! You deserve it.

Let’s ring in 2016 feeling powerful, purpose-full and full of potential!

Thank You! There's ALWAYS Something to be Thankful For!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the United States.
It’s one of my favorite holidays.
There’s something about gathering in my childhood home by the roaring fire with the smell of oven-baked goodness filling the air and watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade that makes the world and everything in it just seem right.
Thanksgiving is a day of gratitude -- for thanks and giving -- and I want to honor YOU in this moment and thank you for being here with me.
Thank you for all you do, all that you are right now and for your big dreams that lie in wait.
Thank you for opening your mind and heart to me.
Thank you for letting me be a part of your day.
You are magnificent, and it is my honor and privilege to have YOU in my life.
Thank you.
Today, I give thanks for you.
Wherever you are in the world, I invite you to stop for a moment and join me in giving thanks for the good things in your life right now.
There is always something to be thankful for. Always. No matter what.
With love + immense gratitude,

Harness The Power of Community for Lasting Change

There is a special kind of magic that occurs when people come together with a common goal.
There’s an undeniable energy that is generated when passionate, visionary people embark on parallel journeys.
There’s a reason why masterminds are so effective, why teams can rally together to win championships, and why motivated groups of people can start a revolution.
There is power in numbers.
I want to harness that power to help YOU build the business of your dreams!
And, THAT is precisely why I’m hosting the *free* Mindset Reset Challenge.
Mindset Reset Banner This is a 5-day challenge to help you start living your fullest potential in community with others who are ready to do the same.
During the Mindset Reset Challenge, I’ll be sharing my favorite teachings and tools for resetting your mindset in order to realize your fullest potential, own it and live it every day in your life and business.
So, if you’re struggling to make money doing what you love;
If your business feels like a lot of work, but you aren’t seeing the results you desire;
If the clients aren’t there, and you don’t know where to find them;
If you feel stuck, unsure, stressed, frustrated or unmotivated…
This challenge is FOR YOU.
Starting Monday, November 16th, I’ll be sharing a short, actionable teaching that will help you embrace a successful mindset and live in a place of potential, possibility and action.
I guarantee that this challenge is unlike other business challenges you’ve seen out there.
I’m not going to share list building gimmicks, Facebook ad tips or email marketing techniques. There are countless freebies out there that’ll teach out all that stuff.
This 5-day event is about tapping into your innate potential, embracing the success that is destined to be YOURS, aligning with your purpose and becoming unstoppable so that all that you already know and the work you’re doing becomes more effortless and more effective!
If that sounds like a YES! to you, I invite you to join me for this 5-day journey.
