There are many incredible benefits to journaling, and I say this from experience. I have been journaling every day for almost two and a half years and in that time, I have noticed such a difference within myself in all areas of my life, physically and mentally. Here are my 5 favourite ways that journaling has helped me.
Read moreWhat is Self-Love?
I like to think of self-love as travelling on a train…and all the elements of self that fall under it (awareness, acceptance, respect, development, confidence, contentment and care) are the individual stations that you will stop at and travel through.
Spend time on that train…letting go of the past, looking forward to the future and enjoying every moment in between.
Read moreComparison is a Killer!
Do not let comparison kill your experiences, your joy or your confidence. Just do your best and be you. We are all different…and that’s a good thing! If we were all the same, life would be pretty dull.
Read moreConfidence can be Learned!
We are not born with confidence, but we can learn it. With courage, we can put ourselves in situations that, when done repeatedly, will bring on confidence…like public speaking. I am living proof of that. Apparently, there’s a stat out there that suggests that most people would rather die than step in front of crowd to talk! How crazy is that?! It’s just a skill to learn like anything else.
Read moreJournaling. Go Slow!
If you are new to journaling, opening my book (or any prompt book) and seeing six prompts on each page may make you close the book again! Please don’t put the book down. Just because there are several prompts on a page, doesn’t mean you have to jump in and answer all the questions from day one.
Read morePink Shirt Day…and My Why!
Today is #pinkshirtday in support of anti-bullying. I love sharing the origin story of this day because it makes me so happy to hear that there are good supportive peeps out there. Although I allowed the bullies to strip away my confidence as I retreated into the shadows, I didn’t stay there. I found ways to be me with confidence!

Journaling is the act of writing down your thoughts, feelings and experiences and observing them to get a better understanding of who you are, what you want or need, and just as importantly, what you don’t want or need.

Read moreMy Book has a Cover!!
I showed my hubby and he immediately said WOW! Just the reaction I had hoped for from my audience. He loved it!
He said, “Imagine this book was written by someone else and you came across it in a store…would you pick it up?”
Absolutely I would!
“Would you put the book back because there’s not enough pink on it?”
I laughed. It sounded silly coming from someone else. Of course I wouldn’t put it back…I LOVE IT!
Read moreSelf-Love is a Necessity to Your Mental Well-being!
When self-love is practiced daily, it will make a difference. I’ve seen the change in my friends, my clients and even myself. Many psychology studies suggest that self-love practices are key to positive mental health and well-being and are known to decrease depression and anxiety…you just have to know what YOU need.
Read moreI've Finally Written A Book!
Just Be You (my first book of hopefully many) is a self-help book containing 366 unique prompts, one for each day of the year, as well as six additional prompts intended to be repeated daily for maximum self-love success. That’s 7 prompts, everyday!
