I have a client who thinks she sleeps with men too early in the dating process. It’s something that has come up over and over. When I asked her why, she said she didn’t think he would stick around if she didn’t. Guess what, she did, and he didn’t. Women get talked into doing things. How did we get to a place where a guy gets to decide what we get to do with our bodies? Many of us are GUILTY of rushing into a sexual relationship too soon.  The energy is there, our hormones are turned on and we are feeling the rip-your-clothes-off passion right now!

Self-love is everything. When you love yourself and your inner child you propel your life and those around you and never ever settle for someone else’s crumbs.

That is her. A woman who loves herself ensures she is #1. She puts herself in the wise woman driver’s seat and safety straps in her inner child in the back seat so she can drive. She k ..read more

What is unconditional love? What does this really mean? It is loving without conditions. For you and someone else. Love is always created by our thoughts.  If we want love, we must think of loving thoughts. Think of the most challenging people in your life and practice loving them.  Get really good at it. The truth is when you are not loving someone, you are not feeling love.  If you choose to hate someone, the only person that feels hurt is you.  You are feeling the hate, not the other person.  You cannot control how another person feels and they cannot control how y ..read more

Emotional adulthood requires us to take responsibility for how we are feeling at all times. It’s a really powerful way to live our lives.

Emotional childhood is rampant.  Not taking responsibility for how we feel is much more common. Growing up, no one was taught in school how to be an emotional adult. As children, we are taught that what we do can make others feel a certain way.  It is literally ingrained in t ..read more

I don’t believe the only route is AA.  I know this to be true because I changed my relationship with alcohol without AA.  I went from drinking a few glasses of wine on most nights to wind down, which be ..read more
