Happy Monday Motivation, y'all!
|
|
|
|

This all started because of a sign....
|
|
|
I was working on the 'signs' for the Glitter & Grace Club...those nice little boxes that you chose what you want to do once you're inside. They say things like "Newsletters, Dance Party, Downloads", etc. (I guess they don't really say anything, but you know what I mean...)
And I saw the one that had "Workshops" on it, and my mind went in about fortyleven directions (you know fortyleven, right?) and this video is the result.
You can follow my thought process on the Monday Motivation video...you can find it here:

Glitter & Grace Gathering!
Wait a minute....
32 days?
There are ONLY 32 days until the most epic of epic weekends called the Glitter & Grace Gathering?
Holy smoking moly, I can hardly believe it's here! ➣ G3 Tickets!

Did you see that?!
Someone had an idea.
I had no idea how to make it work.
I researched. I stalked (stalked seems like such a serious word....I ... hovered). I asked.
And finally I found a solution I thought would work.
Ironically, it didn't work for the original idea, but I think it is perfect for something

else. So, why am I speaking in circles ? I have no idea...maybe it's the cabinet dust and chaos.
But here's a thought....would you be interested in getting notifications via text about some things?
Look, I'm not gonna text you all the time....because ain't nobody got time for that!
BUT....I could text when the Monday Motivation Newsletter comes out. (Well...you know when that comes out...duh. But maybe when because it's all over the clock these days...)
Or I could shoot a quick text when there's a new Life Coaching Course....
At any rate, I'd love to know what you think! I've put together a 2 question survey, where you can let me know! Literally, 15 seconds is all it will take! AND, if you are thinking...this is cool, then there's a spot to put your phone number in there, too!
Text? Survey here!

Journeys can be anything!
Once upon a time, I was a guest on a podcast and was asked about my journey.
In all likelihood, that was the first time I actually thought about having a definition for my journey.
Off the cuff, I popped out this: My journey is fraught with caffeine & chaos, and slapped together with pixie dust and tequila.
|
|
|
|
|
|
That has become my mantra....and every time I say it, it makes me smile.
But even with a 'tag line' that sounds great, I now know the importance of defining your journey.
No, I don't mean over-thinking it so much that it drives you a little bit crazy. Instead, let it mingle in your brain, marinating with other thoughts and tossing in the ifs, the shoulds, and the coulds, so that you have an idea of what your journey looks like.
Does it look like a carefree ride on a Sunday afternoon?
Does it look like a storm chaser headed into a F5 tornado?
Does it look like road construction at every turn?
Does it look like a shopping trip with multiple stops?
Oh...wait.
You mean you answered "yes" to each of those?
Well, of course you did!
Your journey will be filled with carefree rides, storm chasers, road construction, and so many stops you'll wonder how you will begin again. But....it will still help to define it, even if its small parts of the journey.
Maybe you define sections of the journey...this year, this season of your life you're going through right now.
Give it a name, or a definition, or even a 'tag line', lets you own it and realize this season of your life is just that....a season.
There will be many, many more and you get to define them as well.
But let's work on getting through this one as well as we possibly can!

You've Got Talent!
Video 5 has been released in the Life Coaching Courses and it's a doozy!
I want to make sure we chat about this one....because it's different. And this path is a
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|

different, too.
So I want to revisit this whole Life Purpose Quest just for a hot minute.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and take a wild guess...this whole process might be new to you. It was certainly new to me a couple of years ago. So these videos, and the topics I'm covering in each, along with the worksheets, might seem so outside your comfort zone that you're not even sure you know where the zone is any more.
But, I want to encourage you to watch them anyway.
And if one is tough to understand, then watch it again. Let me assure you of this....it's tough to understand because it's foreign to you, just like a foreign language would be. It certainly doesn't mean you can't understand it, but instead it means you don't understand it because it's something you've never even considered before or been introduced to.
When I was taking the training to become a Certified Master Life Coach, there were many times I had to stop, hit the pause button, and say, "wait a minute....what did they say?" because it was totally foreign to me, too.
So, with all that said, allow me to present the latest video in the Life Purpose Quest: Talents!

Lay down the worry...
I wrote the words to this meme Saturday night when my world seemed heavy. And because I don't believe in measuring one persons heaviness against anyone else's heaviness, I owned what I was holding, and carrying, and dealing with.
I longed to just lay down the worry, the fear, the weight of the days, and walk away from the chaos....even if it was just for a moment.
And I realized I could lay it down. And I could lay fear down right beside it, and step away from the weight of my world, if even for a moment.
The world didn't stop....it kept right on turning and spinning, probably out of control in places, but with my worry and fear laid out away from my heart and soul, I didn't notice.
Nothing had changed when I came back and picked those two up again, and I knew I had life to live and deal with, but that moment away allowed me to grasp the giggles again, and to remember I am strong, and I can handle whatever I need to handle, as long as I take those moments when I need to.
So my wish to you is to take the moments that you can...steal them away from wherever you need to steal them from and hold them tight in your hands until you can face the life you live again.
You've got this.....
Here are the rest of the words I wrote that night:
If you could hold your worry in your hands....
and set it down when it was just too heavy to carry any more...
then lay the fear beside it, to keep it company while we escaped to a land of sunshine, giggles, and hot fudge brownies...
wouldn't our days be more joyous....
couldn't we live a little lighter, a little brighter, and a little more carefree?
so reach deep down inside your soul, grab that worry and that fear, and pull it out into the sunshine....
let it see the light, and tell it that you. will. not. let. it. win.
At least not today.
Today....you giggle...

Fun Talkin' to ya!
In case you missed it, I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Tara and Jessica from Glitter, Glow, and Grow. It was such a fun interview and I adore these two...for many reasons, but I love how they've grown as a mother/daughter business owning team, too!
You can catch it here: Interview

Seems pretty simple, right?
"Have Fun!"
That's something that's tossed out to people as they head out on an adventure, or a date night, or even to a company party.
But...we don't think about 'having fun' in everyday life very often.
And shouldn't THAT be the time we need to have the MOST fun?
When life is just happening all around us, and we're trying to get through the day?
Yep...that' Definitely the time to Have Fun!
So....let me be the first to tell you today...
Have FUN!!!
There, I said it, now you have to do it 😉
