The Journey of a Positive Self Image
Hey y’all! This week, I am focusing on self image and believing that we all have gifts to offer the world…and learning how to feel comfortable in our own skin. So many women that I encounter on a daily basis have difficulties with this. Sometimes it’s because someone has done them wrong to a level…

It’s Okay to be Scared. Being Scared Means You’re About to do Something Really Brave.
Fear is a scary thing! And, so many times, the fear we feel is exaggerated by our own thoughts! I had to recently think about this quite a bit as I was making decisions about what I want to look like in my second half! I spent so many years living in a box…the box…

Your Inner Circle…and Your Outer Circle!
Today was a great day! I got to spend a minute seeing some of my oldest and dearest friends! These ladies looked great…as we have all grown older these days! These ladies are people I can walk in a room with and feel like I have not missed a minute with them! If you are…

Muscles in the Mid-Life
Two years ago, during Half Marathon training, I did a little something to my knee. I was trying to be a rock star, and when I turned a certain way during a cross training activity, I felt a little pop…and all of a sudden, I was a person in the mid-life with a knee problem!…

They Call Me…Coach!
One of my fondest childhood memories was when I was on the 8th grade girls track team. Back then, I was small and quick (not the fastest, but not the slowest either). I loved to run even back then…but what made this experience so memorable was my coach. He was also one of our classroom…

Perfect…to Progress!
Saying that I am a Type A personality is an understatement! I like structure and control, especially in situations that may be stressful or unknown. I am very good at planning and being as proactive as possible. These are not bad traits…it is exactly these traits that have gotten me where I am! I have…
