It’s My Birthday! | 3 Principles I’m Focusing on This Year

Do you reflect on your life when your birthday comes around?  
Even more than New Years time, every year around my birthday I get
very reflective about my life, where I'm going, and where I've
been.  This year, I want to share those reflections with you
because I think they might be valuable for you on your journey as
well.  And, I hope this episode helps you get to know me a
little better.     I'm turning 44 today, and that doesn't
give me anxiety, or make me sad or stressed at all! No mid-life
crisis here friends! In fact I feel quite the opposite, I feel like
I have so much opportunity and so much room for growth that I get
excited for the future to come! I'm literally excited about WHO I
will become in the next 10 - 40 years.  Aging is really about
perspective isn't it? You can see your life as "half over" or you
can see it as "the best half is still to come"! I choose the
latter     I hope you notice that in an episode
where I'm talking about the 3 main things I'm focusing on in the
next year, not ONE of them has to do with food, fitness, or losing
weight.  Every one of them has to do with my mindset, my
growth as a person, the evolution of my spiritual life, and my
contributions.     It's so easy to get caught up in the
goals and results; the should's, have to's, and expectations that
we place on ourselves and that we THINK others place on us.
 At this age I should have accomplished these things . . .
 Historically, I've been so fixated on the end result that I
didn't stop to wonder or pray about whether or not I was even on
the right path! This year I'm focusing on letting my own "shoulds"
go, and embracing and trusting the paths God leads me down.  
I hope you hear a bit of yourself in this episode. I hope there are
some valuable nuggets to ponder and pray over. And I hope you'll
join me in embracing the unknown and all the opportunity it holds.

  Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program & Membership! Ditch
the Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food If you struggle with
yo-yo dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting
change.  Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that
being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and
when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem,
destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a
guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again.  
If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging
you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting
progress.   That’s why I created the Healthy Mind,
Healthy Body Program; to teach you how to make a real, lasting
transformation in your Mind AND Body.
