Increasing your happiness every single day is not only an options, it’s a necessity. Think about this—If you focused on becoming 1 percent happier each day between now and the end of the year, you would be over 200% happier. This is a huge jump.

So today, you and I are taking a one-on-one deep dive into happiness, some of the top things that get in our way, and how we can shift and define what happiness means to us, not happiness by the standard of others.

This is one conversation that puts happiness into tangible reachable terms.

There comes a time where each of us seeks true motivation to heal—a time where we work to release the baggage, the upset, the hard experiences of our lives, and reignite our inner spark. Yet, when that time comes, many of us ask how. How do I even begin to heal? This week we are taking a one-on-one deep dive into YOUR personal story, into YOUR life revolution through a process and path many of us are seeking right now—the process of emotional healing. So, sit back, grab a pen, and let’s take a mending journey together as we discover what true emotional healing is, the benefits, uncover a major “a-ha” moment, whether or not you are in need of walking through this process, and why we must get uncomfortable to thrive. Getting out of own way is necessary if we want to create the life revolution that inevitably amounts to freedom.

Our daily lives are often too busy, overwhelmed, and even loud. As this tense and stressed framework becomes our way, we often forget who we are. In doing so, we lean into the idea of chasing perfection. Today is the day you reclaim your authenticity and lean into resetting yourself for more.

I am an instrument of joy. I see the beauty of it, the pleasure of it, the bliss, happiness, delight, and thrill that it weaves throughout my life, even during times that are not joyful or developed in joyful circumstances. Because of this, I am no longer waiting for the next day, the next event, the next moment to come. Instead, I am guiding myself, my mind, emotions, and actions into enjoying what is, in the here and now, in each and every second, minute, and hour. In doing so, I realize that joy is always available to me because it is me.

Everywhere you turn, the word “affirmation” seems to be taunted as the end-all-be-all to shifting your mindset into a permanent place of positivity. Yet, even with the widespread popularity, many question whether affirmations genuinely work or if they are just another personal development/self-help scheme to sell more journals and books. Yet, most do not understand that the practice, when used correctly, does have the powerful ability to shift your mindset and your life! This week we are taking a one-on-one deep dive into understanding the affirmation practice through factual science, brain chemistry, the thought process, and the ins and outs of making this practice genuinely work in your favor, despite what others may be touting.

Bring your mind to a state of stillness and focus on two beautiful words. Those words are peace and Shanti. Shanti is a Sanskrit term that can be loosely translated as “peace be with you.” It’s a reminder that peace is always within your grasp.

Have you ever wondered to yourself…who am I? I bet you have, and yet, I even more willing to bet that when you began to try to formulate an answer, you only allowed yourself to scratch the surface of the real you. The you that is not defined by labels, titles, the roles you play, what you own, or even who you’ve been told you should be.  

Every once in a while, it’s necessary to apply the brakes, boil down the emotion, and examine the truth. When there’s zero emotional attachment to an outcome, the answers you seek are not only offered, but appear in the framework of trust. Trust-centered thoughts lead to a trust-centered life. The question is: are your thoughts and actions trust aligned?

What do the words intention and expectation mean to you? For most, they represent an aim, a plan, and how we expect the events in our lives to unfold. Yet, it’s no secret that life has a way of dramatically changing at a moment’s notice, which shifts our expectations and intentions. For Tara Parsons, revealing this great truth started on an icy mountain road and ended in a car accident that dramatically changed her life.

What comes to mind when you hear the word negativity? What do you see, or more importantly, who do you see? The “correct” answer may surprise you as we take a one-on-one deep dive into empowering ourselves through understanding self-esteem and one common unhealthy habit that kills the overall opinion of ourselves, trashes our self-confidence and self-love, and ultimately, and keeps us in cycles that can be exceptionally difficult to break. What is this habit? Self-gaslighting.

When was the last time you gave yourself a mental and emotional boost? Every once in a while, we need to reset and bring ourselves back to center. Feeding yourself positive affirmations allows you to elevate your mood, find a sense of peace, and shift your perspective to help you keep your life together, girl! The Get Your Life Together, Girl mini bi-monthly reset is here to help you reset and weave an epic of gratitude.

Each week, I ask women to be vulnerable, tell their stories, and offer each of us a perspective that we can apply to our own growth. However, it wouldn’t be fair, nor vulnerable, if I didn’t deep dive into a time and place where my own life revolution was in full swing. And yet, it’s a story that I walked through from the outside in. The story belongs to my fourteen-year-old daughter, Madison. A story of facing a life-altering surgery at the age of nine, finding her way through medical turmoil and life without a vital organ, the lessons she taught me, and the realization that both of us found our purpose in moments neither of us was confident we had the strength to survive.
