How to Grow Confidence in Today's Uncertain World
Susan Bremer O'Neill

You never know how your actions today will influence tomorrow. But you can be certain that until your death, tomorrow will come. You cannot know what will happen outside yourself tomorrow, but you can know with certainty that you can't control most, if not all, of what happens outside yourself. You only have control over what's within yourself right now, your inner world.  Like so many others I've been at home due to the coronavirus pandemic. My part-time job dried up, my networking meetings all went online and any reason I had to leave my home, which I often lamented about, is gone. I'm ..read more

Find Peace within During Chaos Outside

This time of self-quarantine and social distancing is a great time to reflect and be still inside. When this passes, and it will, we will all be changed. We can facilitate positive change by becoming aware of what’s important in our lives to who WE are (the same things aren’t important to everyone) and learning how we can be our own best friends in order to feel at greater peace. It’s also a great time to find stillness inside if you’re cooped up with family who, while being loved, also have habits that are a bit unnerving. If you find yourself fearful of what lays ahead or distancing yoursel ..read more

Learning Not to "P" on Your Relationships
Susan Bremer O'Neill
by Susan Bremer O'Neill

Do you ever become gripped with indecision and fear?  Do you ever get overwhelmed?  What do you do about it? If it's not writing you're blocked from, can you call it creativity block?  That's what it feels like for me right now. And has for some time. I woke up Sunday morning at 3 a.m. feeling overwhelmed with passionate work projects, personal relationship communication issues and cluttered home along with dragged-in-animal-dirt-leaves-and-hair piles. In the past I've been disconnected from this feeling of overwhelm instead giving into extreme stress, pushing myself harder to be superwoman ..read more

Gutsy Enough to Ask, Brave Enough to Receive
Susan Bremer O'Neill
by Susan Bremer O'Neill

Are you getting what you want?   Simply put, you have to ask for what you want if you really want to get it. However, many women don’t. Or if they do, they ask in a demanding, pushy, or tentative way and alienate, offend, or trigger the other person to not meet the request. Asking for what you want provides different challenges whether personal or business related, but basically, in order to ask you need to feel deserving. Unfortunately, it’s been my experience being a woman and working with women that many of us don’t feel good enough to have our needs met so unconsciously we don’t feel we ev ..read more

Learning to Balance Feminine and Masculine for Authentic Wholeness
Susan Bremer O'Neill
by Susan Bremer O'Neill
4y ago
I have body injuries and ailments, all on my left side. Talking about these with other women, I’ve been surprised at how many have confessed that they too have issues on their left side.  Being a big believer of the brain body connection, I often look for the metaphysical meaning of an injury. Metaphysically, the left side of the body represents female energy, according to some, mother energy. The left side of the body, ruled by the right hemisphere of the brain, is responsible for creativity, intuition and feelings, often considered to be more “feminine” characteristics. After learning this i ..read more

Law Breaking Your Mother Can Be Proud Of
Susan Bremer O'Neill

I want every over burdened, creative, entrepreneurial, successful woman (or anyone really) to break the law.Newton’s Law that is, of Inertia. It states "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." Note that Newton's Law states, "unbalanced force." Too much busy is bad and too much relaxation (sloth in the extreme) is bad too because this is not balanced. Balanced is a healthy mix of busy with ample time for relaxation. But most professional women aren’t too relaxed. It’s usually ..read more

Changing Your Outside won't Fix Your Inside

I was talking with a lovely young woman the other day who'd recently lost 50 pounds. Bravo, I thought. Then she said, "I thought that would help me love myself, but it didn't."Of course it didn't. Too often we women make the mistake of thinking that "if only," or "when" I (lose, get find, do) blah, blah, whatever you can fill in the blank with, then I will feel better about myself, have more confidence, or love myself. Unfortunately, the truth is that if you don't already have love inside you, changing your external appearance isn't going to help.Besides, we don't really live in a world that w ..read more

Gal, Pal or Val

Did you celebrate Galentines Day Yesterday? You know, the day before February 14 that is set aside to honor your female friendships. Or maybe you're celebrating Palentines Day. A celebration of platonic love between friends. Maybe you're buying a gift for your special pet. I heard one statistic that said more people were buying gifts for pets than other humans.Whatever, or whoever, you're celebrating today, February 14, Valentine’s Day, remember to celebrate YOU too. You are your primary relationship. If you don't have plans of love and snuggles with something or someone clean shaven or furry ..read more

Structure is Not a Dirty Word
Susan Bremer O'Neill

From an early age, we have to be taught everything. And usually, we have to be taught often. Once our mind is open, though, we have a greater chance to learn the lessons that are presented to us everyday and re-presented to us. I used to laugh at my parents because they are so regimented in their food. They eat meals with such regularity that I can bank on it. Morning, noon and night. Eight, or soon after they get up, noon most definitely whether weekday or weekend, and dinner around 5 or 5:30 without fail. Over the years I've read, heard and experienced that eating regularly helps your body ..read more

From Showgirl to Stripper or What I forgot to mention in my Tedx Talk
Susan Bremer O'Neill
by Susan Bremer O'Neill

It took a lot of courage for me to stand on stage in my recent Tedx talk and proclaim to be a former stripper. In that Talk I illuminated why I decided to become a stripper at thirty four, but it wasn’t until I read this article in the Washington Post, that I remembered something I wrote about in my memoir, that of being called a “showgirl” initially. Showgirls, in my mind, were beautiful and classy, at least in the eyes of many as written about and espoused here in this article, and the very first Gentleman’s Club I worked in thought so too. As excerpted from my memoir, From Sex Appeal to Sel ..read more
