Happy Tuesday. I was looking at some daily affirmation cards and came across this from Dr. Wayne Dyer :" I treasure all of the experiences I've had in my life". Not all of our experiences are positive but- good or bad- they are vital to us getting to where we need to be. What is an experience- good or bad- that you've gone through that helped you on this journey called life?

I saw this on The Queen Code page last night and thought this is a good motivation for today.

Are you the go to person for everyone? Do people love to pick your brain? Do you have a hard time saying no? Are you taking care of everyone else and at the end of the day, there is no time for you?
Setting boundaries is one of the hardest things to do. Trust me- I have been there and really struggled with this part of self-care but I have done with work and can help you with this as well. Reach to me at 804-322-3942 and let's talk.

Good evening! The last few days (ahem week and half) have not exactly gone as plan for me. The wacky Virginia weather has cancelled plans and caused some rough migraines on top of sciatic nerve pain well having a full schedule and some exciting projects. A lot of the perfectly planned plans have had to be changed messing up how I thought I would get things done/ Have you ever been through that before? Sometimes life does not go as we plan for it to go. Sometimes our plan is not the Master plan and we have to adjust or PIVOT. We might have to take a different route. We may have to go a different day. We may have to try Plan B or even Plan C. We have to be willing to think about other ways to handle things to get the goal done. See pivoting is not necessarily a bad thing. It can lead to learning new things, Seeing new things, It can open you up to so many new possibilities. Pivoting this week has allowed me to be able to get the rest I needed, come up with new ways of caring for self, and new ideas to share with you all (stay tune)! So, when you are challenged to pivot, will you take advantage of the opportunity?
