The Blame Game When we aren't feeling our best, it's easy to go down the list of "undesirable" conditions that are out of our control. Mercury in retrograde. The weather. A change in barometric pressure. Hormones. Hormones!!! Do you still blame your hormones for those days that you are feeling "off"? Or worse--- sequester yourself to confinement? All I have to do is check the calendar to be reminded that I was feeling exactly the same way approximately 28 days earlier. Curses! Foiled again. and again... and again...

Are you woo hoo? with Lisa Steadman
The most successful people take their "mess" and make a message. Why is it that other people's stories always seem more inspiring than our own? Is it that we have a hard time recognizing what will make our own stories mean something to others? Very often we are too attached to ourselves to see clearly the unique and magic appeal that has been within us all along. We know our stories too well to be able to see it from someone else's point of view. Join me on Friday when I show you how to unlock the potential that you've always had for rising … [Read more...]
Placing your Products on the Shelves
The further the journey, the more you will enjoy the ride. Its very easy for us to look at what we don't have. Its even easier for us to take a look at what everyone else has - but if you are looking for solutions, that is not the way to go about it. I am constantly looking to align myself with people who are real go-getters. I am most inspired by those that possess a real human spirit and tenacity for life. These are the people who I want to learn from, the ones who overcame a real struggle or unexpected curve ball thrown at them by life … [Read more...]

The Rewards of Resistance
The path of least resistance certainly has it's perks... ..but the road less traveled has adventure and character. Ever since SoCal weather began hitting triple digits, I shifted my morning workout routine into swimming laps. To keep my hands from cramping, I use resistance gloves --- which have been largely beneficial in building more muscle tone in my arms, as well as helping me to move faster through the water with the pull of the resistance. Resistance gives you something substantial to grab hold of and propel you forward! While … [Read more...]

Your Show. Your Episode. YOUR VOICE.
Moms, I'm handing over the show TO YOU today. Earlier this week, I took my boys for a quick run to the grocery store. They were rowdy as 6 and 9 year olds usually are and I found myself exhausted from hearing my own voice: "Put that down. Please don't touch that. Do you mind keeping your voice down? Please don't run. Hold my hand and look for cars." The glances that I received from many onlookers told me that they had --- an opinion. I was harshly reminded of how little the majority of the world understands (and tolerates) parents and the … [Read more...]
