We have all been there. For a moment, for a phase of our life, maybe always. When we spend all of our time complaining, we are in essence in constant destroy mode rather than building mode.

Acting versus Reacting. What's there to think about and some of my thoughts why slowing ourselves down is important. We often don't think about the impact we have by simply reacting and also don't realize or acknowledge, that we have in every moment of a knee jerk reaction the option and choice to do different and be kinder. And don't burden yourself with regret by reacting in a particular way, as you will later realize you can't take it back.
Thomas Edwards is the original wingman and master of life. He is sharing his personal story, his joy of life and supporting people through gaming in their transformation and journey of life.
Each word has a life of its own. A feeling. An existence. Words hold a sound, a signature, a vibe, a feeling, an association, a memory, an impact, words can uplift and words can destroy and hurt. Words can create a ripple, like a wave. How aware are you of the waves you're creating?

She talks about boundaries, red flags for people in the work and family sector and also gives advice to people who want to go into the business of therapy even as she shares about her journey into becoming a therapist.
If we were to look at everyone's lives a little more closely, we would all realize that they are human, full of glorious crap and imperfections that make them who they are. Authentically. Imperfections make people relatable. Accessible. Like-able. And this is my invitation for you to embrace yours!

Asking can be hard. And when asking, often we feel weak, powerless and helpless. I would like to invite you as you see asking as strength and a place of resource. And the person being asked, be graceful and empathetic and seek to understand where the ochre person comes from and don't explore your power and their moment of need of service and support.

SOCIAL MEDIA. There is a lot of stuff out there on social media. News, advertisement, entertainment, education, jobs, travel, gadgets, products, behaviors, just all kinds of stuff. When we have a presence on social media, or we expose ourselves to it, we probably should be thinking about creating and having balance. Balance requires adding, silencing, eliminating and saying yes and no.
Otherwise, before we know it, we become the bad news. Think of it like a diet plan with food.

2020 was a year of many emotions for me. I am certain it was for you. I am sharing a few of my personal "highlights" and teachings here and the immense amount of gratitude I have.
Be a catalyst for celebration. So many times we miss the opportunity to celebrate. It's not just the socially driven big things that deserve celebration. The little things, your progress, your small steps, they all deserve a celebration.
Ever felt you're not good enough? Here are a few thoughts on how to maneuver the Mindfuck of "Not Good Enough"!!!
We can find happiness by acknowledging the things we are grateful for. And sometimes it's not about the things we have only, sometimes it's about being grateful for the things we don't have.
We all see and feel and know we have a problem at one point or another. And the question is not do we have a problem and what the problem is, the question is rather what do we do with it the moment we feel it and see it appear, and does it maybe present a life-changing and unique opportunity for us and the people around us.
In this episode, we read the last of the three books of Kobi Yamada called "What Do you Do With A Problem? "
We talk about "Taking a Chance" so many times. And often after we don't take that chance, we are left with regret. I am continuing to honor Kobi Yamada's book and share it with the world. To me, the book represents brilliant inspiration, challenge, and motivation. Take That Chance!
I was inspired by the book of Kobe Yamada years ago when I found it in a small gift store during my travels, and since then I have and continue to gift it to many entrepreneurs and friends. In this episode, I simply want to share this book with you.
Let's talk about it! Everyone talks about it! What makes us authentic? Here's the equation: Beliefs+Values+Action=Authenticity
Integrity is not a choice. In this episode, we talk reminders of what integrity is and what is not. A simple reminder that living with integrity makes life better.
Emotional Triggers hold a lot of charge for all of us for often times very different reasons. Often our relationships - business and personal - are deeply affected by it and we feel we lose control. Here is Raw Rant about those emotional triggers and some pointers that have helped me and may help you as well. Listen in and take charge of your mind!
My RAW RANT today is about HAPPY-NESS. We all have a different interpretation or give the word a different meaning. In western cultures often happiness is associated with a party and being around people and very outward-facing. You go east and happiness is being at peace with yourself and creating space for reflection, quiet and calm, not crazy and wild. Happiness is for many of us directly related to success and that in turn translates into money and social recognition. This is my invitation for you to explore what happiness means to you. Listen In!
Boundaries are needed and we need to be clear what they are for us and others. And most importantly we need to communicate and express them and respect them! Listen In, get inspired to explore yours, and learn about others'. And most importantly - don't feel ashamed, afraid, or shy to do so!
We have limited personal energy resources every day and we often allow people to drain that energy without setting the right boundaries or even "uninviting" them from our life. Scan your ecosystem and look for those energy vampires.
Inspired by Biyan, a motivational speaker from Germany, I wanted to share some thoughts on shoes - the analogy on things we try to fit into, people and things we surround ourselves with that may be toxic, and even after trying to walk in those shoes with great pain, we still hold on to them. Why? This is my invitation to let them go - gracefully and gratefully. Listen in!
We connect a lot! But how genuine is our connecting? Are we missing to connect with people that are really the ones that feed our souls? That may be family, old friends, and new friends - Journey along with me and see if you're listening to yourself and making those meaningful connections. Do a little connection yoga with me.
Perfectionism is a tough one. We all, at times, strive for it - the perfect selfie, the perfect words, the perfect body, the perfect work project. And while doing that, we preclude ourselves from doing anything in the first place and ignore our own brilliance.

Curiosity has so many sides. In kids, we appreciate the quality and the behavior of being curious. We accept and encourage it but we forget how to be truly curious and when others are curious about us or what we do, we often get defensive. Listen in!
