Do you ever wonder why you’re doing or started doing something? I’m talking about on those tough days or like I call it, “character building days”. The days it takes a little extra effort to go to the gym, do the activity, or you need to think a little harder on the project. Days…

2026: THE YEAR OF GRATITUDE I blinked and it’s almost February of 2026 but I’m not complaining! In fact, my gratitude for the year so far is enormous. My family and I spent the first 20 days of the year in beautiful Cape Town, South Africa which, if you’re new here, that is where I’m…

A short one to ring in my next 365 days. Wow, what a year it has been. One filled with many successes and many lessons. It didn’t come without a few heartaches and tears but all of that said, I’ve grown beyond measure both inside and out. The gratitude is priceless. I feel strong…

In a few hours, some countries will ring in 2023 and others will follow hour after hour until the entire globe is in a brand-new year. We celebrate the end and embrace the new. The “new year, new me” mentality is all the rage. Resolutions and goals have been set. Vision boards are up,…

Is that gap week between Christmas and New Year leaving you feeling lost? Are some of you pretending to work or are you on the other side where you don’t have a single responsibility until after the new year? Between the social posts I’ve seen about the topic as well as my own feelings…
