Today I Promise…
Fear over immediate threat is okay; it’s understandable. Anxiety is the build up of fear and frustration of the “what-ifs” and the “shoulda’s” which oftentimes are out of our control because the past we cannot revisit and fix, and the future hasn’t occurred.

I realized about 15 years ago that stress is stress; good or bad, our bodies do not fully recognize the difference between what we would deem ‘good stress’ and ‘bad stress’.

These Three Things I Ask From Strong Women…Yeah YOU!
Eloyce Mitchell is my friend Carman’s mother. She sent me this powerful image on Facebook and I posted it along with the message that you see below. I knew that I couldn’t possibly tag every woman that I know on Facebook (because I’m bound to forget someone), and I know that not all of…

OK so I had a 10 to 15 minute pity party earlier today. I needed to let what was bubbling up to pour out so I could carry around less. It’s ok…. Cry. Boo hoo. Shake it off. Get your head back in the game. It’s ok to allow your self to feel. It’s ok…

Thought of The Day: Pick Four Things to Do and Save The Rest For Later
We’re overstimulated in too many ways, and I’m not talking about the “good” stimulation either. No I’m talking about techno-stress, e-clutter, and not having enough time in our day because our days are being burned up by too many emails, phone calls, social media posts, and meetings. We’re overwhelmed, overworked, underpaid, overtaxed, overspent, and many…

By Natasha L. Foreman, MBA I just read a very interesting article by Sabina Nawaz, written for the Harvard Business Review that encourages executives, managers, and other professionals to take two hours per week out of our insanely busy schedules to create our own personal ‘white noise space’, separate from the ‘noise’ of mobile devices,…
