February 15, 2018 06:11 - 6 minutes - 9.39 MB

Beauty starts with BE for a reason. So does better and best... It’s not what you are, but who you are.  What if you BEING you was enough? In fact, what if it's not even a quantity…but a quality?

EPISODE 176: What A Blow Dryer Has To Do With Your Love…Life

February 14, 2018 06:11 - 9 minutes - 13.3 MB

In today's S.O.L. Story I share what I learned about love and life from my favorite, metallic orange blow dryer.  Have you ever felt like your love life was/is broken? Have you ever felt like you’re broken? Your life was/is broken, or somehow it no longer works? Perhaps it needs to be tossed in the garbage...WRONG! We've all had those moments when we feel as though we want to unplug, and never plug in again. Yep, I've had them too. More than once! BUT... Just because you feel bro...

EPISODE 176: Valentine’s Day…Redefined

February 13, 2018 06:11 - 12 minutes - 17.5 MB

Valentine's Day can be a bitter sweet day for many, including myself. Today I'll show you a beautiful way to change that... This is how Valentine's Day became thoughtless. Whether it's due to a loss of love or life, here's a gift to bring new life to the symbol of love. The rose is given as a sign of love for many reasons. It's a woody, prickly, perennial. One that's enduring and recurring. The rose symbolizes promise, hope, and new beginnings However, the thorns are symbolic of de...

EPISODE 175: What Protecting Your Heart Looks Like (Part 5)… Are You Suffering From A Deceived Heart?

February 12, 2018 06:11 - 14 minutes - 20.8 MB

Today's the final episode in our 5-Part Series on protecting and caring for the heart. There are 5 diagnoses that come from not protecting and caring for your heart and soul. They all originate from a Dis-eased Heart.  Losing your ease at a heart level, is what I call a DIS-EASED HEART. From there the heart becomes deceived, which leads to a discouraged, distracted, disengaged, and ultimately, divorced heart. Whether you ever experience divorce or not. Locating and diagnosing your hear...

EPISODE 174: What Protecting Your Heart Looks Like (Part 4)…Are You Suffering From A Discouraged Heart?

February 11, 2018 06:11 - 8 minutes - 11.8 MB

Your desires aren’t becoming your reality. Your life doesn’t seem to be going the way you think it “should”…what do you do? You discover your heart again, and remember… H.E.A.R.T. 1. Hope.  We spoke about this in Part 1: EPISODE 171. If you don't get your hopes up and connect with your heart — beliefs, desires, and trust, you'll suffer from a Divorced Heart. 2. Engagement. We spoke about this in Part 2: EPISODE 172. If you don't fully engage with your heart, you'll suffer f...

EPISODE 173: What Protecting Your Heart Looks Like (Part 3)…Are You Suffering From A Distracted Heart?

February 10, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 15.1 MB

Feeling lost, unclear, confused? Distraction isn’t necessarily due to a lack of focus. It’s because you’ve gotten so far from your heart that you no longer know what to focus on. This is how to find your way back… This is Part 3 of a powerful series on how to diagnose, protect and heal your heart. In order to protect your heart, you must focus on your H.E.A.R.T. 1. Hope. 2. Engagement. 3. Awareness. How self aware are you? Do you know what you know? Do you know YOU, and the t...

EPISODE 172: What Protecting Your Heart Looks Like (Part 2)…Are You Suffering From A Disengaged Heart?

February 09, 2018 06:11 - 11 minutes - 16.3 MB

Today’s episode is a continuation of yesterday’s message where I asked if you were suffering from a Divorced Heart. Whether you are, or not, perhaps you’re suffering from a Disengaged Heart. I’ll show you how to diagnose your heart, and know for sure. You’ll also learn what to do about it, in order to care for your heart. My desire is that you commit to fully engaging with your heart. Even when it hurts…especially when it hurts. Yesterday we talked about the first step in caring for ...

EPISODE 171: What Protecting Your Heart Looks Like...Are You Suffering From A Divorced Heart?

February 08, 2018 06:11 - 11 minutes - 17 MB

Today you’ll discover the diagnosis of your heart, and how to protect and heal it. You know how much I love a great acronym. Protecting your heart looks like this: H.E.A.R.T. Let's start with your hope. 1. Hope. Hope is your belief, desire, and trust. At times we can feel as though we've lost heart. It leaves us feeling hopeless and, sometimes, helpless. When we don't protect and care for our hearts (and hope) we lose sight of our true beliefs, or desires. We no longer trust ou...

EPISODE 170: Remember Your Why…Not

February 07, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 14.4 MB

  Today I share a S.O.L. STORY of my day, and take you on a journey back. It was exactly what I needed. What do you need? You’ll find what you’re looking for HERE… Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP: Take some time today to get quiet and re-engage with your heart. Spend some time in your Heart Home.

EPISODE 169: What Does Your Neck Say About You?

February 06, 2018 06:11 - 7 minutes - 11.2 MB

Today's an interesting topic, but I'm not necessarily asking you this question because I'm a chiropractor. I'm asking you because it's about what you can't hide...and what I can see when I look at your neck (or hands.) Of course when I look at someone's posture, or their x-rays, I can tell a lot about them. Their health, age, activities, past traumas, behavioral patterns, how they feel...etc. But simply listening to the story that your neck is telling, this is also what I see...  1. Yo...

EPISODE 168: How To Get To Easy…

February 05, 2018 06:11 - 9 minutes - 13.5 MB

There’s no such thing as easy, unless you’re willing to go through hard. Today I show you how... You have to stop running from hard, and run to E.A.S.Y. This is where it starts. It starts with you.  You have to make a decision to make hard EASY. We'd like it to be as easy as running to Staples and getting an Easy Button. BUT... Sometimes you have to push your own buttons. Your own EASY buttons. Step up. Step forward. Keep walking. Even when it feels hard. But do you R...

EPISODE 167: You Sound Like Tin…

February 04, 2018 06:11 - 6 minutes - 10.3 MB

Today you'll discover why you're hearing your LIFE in the way that you've been hearing it. Where are those sounds coming from? Yesterday in the podcast we talked about consistency. I quoted Aristotle. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” What!?! If we are what we repeatedly do, then WHO are you? AND... How do you sound? What we repeatedly do not only affects who we are, but so do those we consistently surround yourselves with. If you s...

EPISODE 166: Are You Consistently Inconsistent?

February 03, 2018 06:11 - 6 minutes - 10.4 MB

Aristotle said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” So what are your inconsistencies saying about YOU? Consistency begins with making a decision. A decision that commits. Are you open today to committing to seeing things differently, and redefining what it really means to be consistent? Trying to be the BEST will keep us being consistently inconsistent. Why? It’s not about being either best or better. Instead, let’s focus on B.E.S.T....re...

EPISODE 165: Showing UP 365 Days A Year

February 02, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 15.2 MB

Today's the day to enter into a life of consistency. I'll show you why consistency is natural. Try it...I think you'll like it. At the time of this recording, I’m celebrating doing a Facebook LIVE every day at 11:11 am CST (AKA: 11:11 LIVE) for the past 365 days! That’s right, rain or shine…feeling well or not so well…I’ve shown up every single day for the past 365 days. Each day I've shared a message of hope with anyone, or all, who would listen. I think I even shared a few times when...

Today I'll uncover four 3rd Person perspectives that'll help you identify YOUR 3rd Person. Which one are you? Is your 3rd Person a... 1. Cheerleader? 2. Critic? 3. Communicator? 4.

EPISODE 163: South Africa And My Pain Relief

January 31, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 15.6 MB

Today’s somewhat of a continuation of yesterday’s EPISODE 162: eMotion — Passion Or Poison? I shared a powerful strategy for processing your emotions and dealing with emotional pain. If you haven’t yet listened to it, I encourage you to do so. After I finished the podcast I was remembering where and when I first discovered this process, and wanted to share this with you. Originally I used the T.E.A.R.S. Technique for physical pain — lower back pain to be specific. Even though I didn't g...

EPISODE 162: Your eMotion — Passion Or Poison?

January 30, 2018 06:11 - 11 minutes - 16.4 MB

Imagine if your emotions were the keys that unlocked your passion and progress. Today I'll show you how to use your T.E.A.R.S and also conquer your fears.... Today I share a powerful strategy for processing emotions that’ll unlock your passion and motion. Processing or paralyzing? Progressing or paralyzing? Have you ever apologized for being emotional?

EPISODE 160: Yep, It’s Broken And So Is Your Balance

January 28, 2018 06:11 - 12 minutes - 17.6 MB

EPISODE 160: Yep, It’s Broken And So Is Your Balance  Today I’ll show you why only seeking balance can make things worse. Could it be that what we need more than anything isn’t balance, but to adjust the way we’re looking at it and our internal gauges?  We’re told that if we want to be balanced that we have to slow down to keep going.  But the truth is… 1- Balance isn’t about speed, it’s about pressure. Too much pressure affects balance. 2- Balance isn’t about everything being ...

EPISODE 159: OMG, I Don’t Own It!

EPISODE 158: Why I Podcast From My Closet

January 26, 2018 06:11 - 11 minutes - 16.1 MB

This podcast episode was inspired by the question that I asked this morning on Facebook LIVE…“What’s in your closet?” It got me thinking about my own personal story regarding closets, healing, and the real reason why I podcast from my closet.

EPISODE 157: Sh*# Happens But SHIFT Is Created

January 25, 2018 06:11 - 11 minutes - 16.3 MB

When the “S” is HIT(ting) the fan, you can SHIFT or you can be piled up in a whole lot of crap. Perhaps it’s time for you to SHIFT lanes in your life. Here's how... It takes a decision, commitment, and creative energy — a creation — to get into the lane that you choose to be in. Life happening TO us is like the “S” hitting the fan. But SHIFT is something that’s created for YOU...by YOU. Where in your life is the “S” hitting the fan? Would you like to create a SHIFT that gets you in y...

EPISODE 156: 60-Seconds Never Felt So Good!

January 24, 2018 06:11 - 8 minutes - 12.3 MB

If you've been "trying" to do something, but for some reason (or reasons) you haven't been able to do it yet, this will help you... Is it possible that there’s a part of you that doesn’t believe you can? About 6 weeks ago I decided to do a handstand after not doing one for about 20 years. I used to do handstands, and walk on my hands, quite often. However, it's been a LONG time. So I made decision to do a 60-second handstand. BUT...(the big BUT) physically it wasn't happening. I th...

January 23, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 14.4 MB

DISCLAIMER/I APOLOGIZE: After recording today's episode, I noticed a clicking sound coming through my microphone. I'm not sure why this happened, but I WILL get it figured out!

In today's episode I'll show you a powerful, yet simple, strategy to remember... So why do we forget to remember? I believe it's because ...

EPISODE 154: Losing Doesn’t Make Us Losers

January 22, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 14.7 MB

Today I share what happens when you fall short or find yourself losing, and how to stand back up again. Losing doesn’t make you a loser. Just like standing in a garage doesn’t make you a car! Whatever it is that you’re going through today, you must stand back up… Wipe your tears away, if necessary. Or stand there with tears rolling down your cheeks. Mascara and all. Perhaps you’re feeling completely defeated, like a victim, like a loser. It’s time for you to stand back up.  You...

January 21, 2018 06:11 - 8 minutes - 11.8 MB

Whoever said that growing up (or IN) was going to be without some pain along the way? It's inevitable. Expect it. It's GROWTH.  Gr...OW..th. It starts with Grrr (resistance). Then it moves into OW (the pain that’s inevitable with growth) But it leads to a powerful explosive energy that allows us to expand. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Today’s rant is exactly what you need to finally find the courage to take a stand for YOU, and let go of…DELETE…anything that’s eating you from the inside, out. What needs to be deleted in your life?

EPISODE 151: What IF Success Was Natural?

January 19, 2018 06:11 - 8 minutes - 11.4 MB

Today I share with you a new perspective on success. What if success didn't have to be hard or a struggle? What if it's already IN you? At the moment of conception, you ARE a success. Think about all the sperm that never made it! One word that shows up in the dictionary when defining success is the the word, AIM. Being the acronym lover that I am, I see this as, "Already In Me." What if your success is Already In You? It's natural, and so is the growth that accompanies it. Grow...

EPISODE 150: Join The Global S.O.L. Movement

EPISODE 149: Loss And Diamonds Lost

January 17, 2018 06:11 - 9 minutes - 12.9 MB

Whether you've lost a loved one, or diamonds you love...if you’re feeling some loss today, you’re NOT alone. Listen to this... Today’s S.O.L. STORY is very personal for me. I’ve been struggling with feeling some intense grief the past couple days. I believe that grief isn’t something that we ever fully get over. It’s not something we simply GO through. Loss and grief are something we GROW through. Sometimes what’s most required is FEELING IT. And there’s nothing like a good CRY. ...

EPISODE 148: You Become What You Consistently Do

January 16, 2018 06:11 - 7 minutes - 10.3 MB

Today I show you a way to identify and clarify your consistencies, so you can become consistent at being YOU, and create the desires of your heart. How consistent are YOU at being YOU? Is there something in your life that you’d like to change? What would you like to BECOME today? It’s about being. It’s about coming into being. How we do this is by consistently being who we are, and becoming who we desire to become. The key word here is “CONSISTENTLY.” How consistent are you wit...

EPISODE 147: It’s Not Over Until YOU WIN!

January 15, 2018 06:11 - 7 minutes - 10.1 MB

If you only had 10 seconds to WIN, what would you do? Today I share a monumental day in Minnesota history that proves it's never too late to believe you can WIN...and actually do it. Being born, and raised, in Minnesota I've always been a Vikings fan. Since I no longer watch television, I'm more of what you would call a "silent fan". However, since I've been living across the street from the Vikings stadium, I've become a lot less silent. Especially after today's BIG, MIRACULOUS WIN. W...

EPISODE 146: Handstands And Fire Escapes

January 14, 2018 06:11 - 11 minutes - 15.4 MB

Today I share a recent discovery that’ll help you in those situations when you know what to do but, for some reason, aren’t able to do them. Knowing what to do, or how to do it isn’t the same as mastering the art of actually doing it. In order for HARD to become not so hard, or even possible for you, it may require more than mindset and belief. Seriously... Like some TECHNIQUE AND STRATEGY. As well as… Practice. That’s right, good old-fashion practice. As well as… Some humili...

EPISODE 145: How’s That Working For You?

January 13, 2018 06:11 - 5 minutes - 8.11 MB

The most unexpected moments can be our greatest teachers, so can this ONE question. Today’s episode is a valuable — short and sweet — reminder of what truly matters in life. Oftentimes we get so caught up in the things that don’t necessarily matter in our lives. We waste so much precious life TIME focusing on things that really don’t serve us, or the greater good. In a minute — a moment — life can change forever. We all need moments of truth that allow us to get back to what matters mo...

EPISODE 144: Try On A New Belief

January 12, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 15 MB

Today I show you how to take control of your thoughts so you can receive what you say you desire. Today’s episode is somewhat of an extension of yesterday’s EPISODE 143: Stop Trying To Own Their Opinions Frank Outlaw wrote, “Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions, they become habits. Watch your habits, they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny. But where do your thoughts come from? Your beliefs. ...

EPISODE 143: Stop Trying To Own Their Opinions

January 11, 2018 06:11 - 14 minutes - 20.2 MB

Do you think about what others are thinking about you? You're about to learn some TRUTHS that'll set you FREE...while adding incredible value to your life, and the lives of others. It’s an ongoing topic of discussion in my S.O.L. DATE SISTERHOOD, as well as with my coaching clients, and all the coaching I do. It’s the topic of worrying about what others think about YOU. You’re so concerned about what “THEY” are thinking about YOU…but is it possible that YOU’RE actually thinking that ab...

January 09, 2018 06:11 - 8 minutes - 12.5 MB

Today I share a S.O.L. Story that'll give you new perspective on what to do when you feel overwhelmed, scared, and want to give up. Is it surrender or giving up? Surrender or defeat? Surrender or quitting? They may look the same from the outside, but are very different on the inside. And they have completely different outcomes. Surrender is letting go of what you're resisting. It's letting go of the struggle.  Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage ...

EPISODE 140: C.P.R. For Your Dreams

EPISODE 139: How To Stop Battling With Yourself

January 07, 2018 06:11 - 10 minutes - 14.9 MB

Today I teach you 3 things you can do to begin winning with — and within — yourself. If you’re battling with yourself, you’ll always end up on the losing end. There are no two ways about it. You’re either ON your team or you’re NOT. If you’re NOT, then you’re against yourself…and you’re fighting a losing battle. No one wins, especially YOU. Stop fighting. Stop battling yourself. Today’s the day you can stop this, and WIN. You may have heard of the old saying of, “get out of your ...

EPISODE 138: You Don’t Have A Commitment Issue…

January 06, 2018 06:11 - 7 minutes - 10 MB

Today I uncover the real problems behind your commitments, or lack thereof. First of all, it's not a commitment issue. It’s a decision issue. You have more choices and options than you think you do. The problem is, you think you don’t. But… You do. The other problem is, even though you do have choices, you’re not exercising your power to choose. THAT'S RIGHT. YOU HAVE POWER. Although, the only way to access it is by making a decision. Yes, there’s a decision that must be ...

EPISODE 137: It’s Not A Goal It’s A DATE

EPISODE 136: Don’t Be A Yolanda

January 04, 2018 06:11 - 11 minutes - 16 MB

In today's episode I share a few lessons I learned about business and life — on the beach — while on vacation in Mexico.  Lesson #1: Don't give yourself away. Lesson #2: Show up and follow though. Which leads me to these questions... Are you giving yourself away? Are you valuing yourself, and your time, at less than what it's worth? If you’re giving your time, talents, or yourself away...OR decreasing your own value because you don’t know your worth…STOP doing that. Please don’...

EPISODE 135: Are You Using “Perfect” As An Excuse? (The Deception Of Perfection)

January 03, 2018 21:39 - 10 minutes - 14.4 MB

If you’re like most humans, you may have bought into the deception of perfection. Today I’ll help you identify where you are, and how to get out of the prison of perfection. Have you ever found yourself saying, “Hey, I’m not perfect. I’m only human?” OR… You’ve sacrificed progress for the illusion of perfection? First of all, what’s perfect got to do with it, anyway? Secondly, why are you using "perfect" as your desired destination, which becomes an excuse? What does “perfect” me...

EPISODE 134: Keep Swimming And Make Every Stroke Count

January 03, 2018 00:29 - 8 minutes - 11.5 MB

Today I share a personal strategy to help you stop drowning in your life and get the most out of your experience of it, so you can live and love your life well.  1. Face your fears. Whatever that is for you. What do you fear the most? Are you willing to face it? 2. Get in the water. Whatever that “water” is for you...get ALL IN to your water. 3. Keep Swimming. Don't stop.  4.
