“You control your day. You have 24 hours. What will you do with it?” – Lily Singh, Girl CEO

This past week I took some time to reflect on how far I’ve come in achieving my biggest dream and number one goal in life so far. My biggest dream is to become a very successful actress, starring in various movies, TV shows, and even someday creating, directing, and producing my own content. My number one goal right now is to graduate with my Doctoral degree and open up my own Wellness Coaching practice. Now this isn’t all that I dream or intend to accomplish in my lifetime. My list of dreams and goals go on and on. However, these are my two biggest dreams and goals that are fueling my fire right now.

In taking some time to reflect on how far I’ve come in achieving this dream/goal, I quickly realized that I haven’t made huge strides. I’m still living in my hometown with my parents, attending school online, and still dreaming of the day when I will achieve everything I intend to achieve in life. I’ve made big enough strides where I can honestly say that I’m getting somewhere with reaching my dreams/goals, but not nearly as far as I thought and had hoped that I would be when I was 6-years-old.

I’ll admit, at times when I think about this it does hurt and sadden me. However, I am always quick to remind myself that everything happens when it’s supposed to happen for a reason.

I’m a firm believer in the idea that we can’t compare our personal journeys to the journey of some else simply because we’re taking a much different path in life. We’re taking those different paths for very specific reasons. So how can we compare something so meaningful and personal like that to a journey or a story that belongs to someone else? [Read more…]

Why It’s Important to Busy Yourself Doing the Things That You Love!

by

Hi guys! As we get closer to my favorite half of the year (because of the holidays but really, I’m just super excited about October/Halloween) I’m realizing more and more how important it is that I continue to busy myself doing the things that I love.

I think it’s important that being busy consists of doing things that are fulfilling to me because it will always be the number one motivator to keep going. I don’t know about you but I can get discouraged very easily. When that happens, I will usually bail on whatever plans or projects I have in the works all because I have lost my confidence in being able to manifest it into something great. This year I’ve really been working hard on not bailing, on not losing confidence in my dreams, my abilities, or my goals, all in hopes that everything I envision for myself will be manifested into the world someday.

That manifestation starts with keeping myself busy doing things that fulfill me. More importantly these are things that I envision as part of my future, so there’s an accountability factor to continue to move forward when I become stagnant.

Before I dive a little deeper into why it’s important to busy yourself doing the things that you love, I have a story that I want to share with you.

This past week I had a major revelation. [Read more…]

The Best Secrets to Thriving and Finding Balance When You’re Busy

We’ve all been there. In fact, I’m currently, yet again, at this place in my life right now. I’m talking about the place in our life when we are taking on too much all at once, though it may be for greater reason and purpose, but we’re not doing a fantastic job managing it all. Do not feel ashamed if you are currently at this place in your life because it’s totally normal.

Life is meant to be lived. It’s a journey that is meant to create challenges for us, create moments of despair, and most certainly create opportunities for betterment. The reality of this thing called life is that, we can’t manage it all in a calm and peaceful manner. At least not most of us anyways. I know for a fact that I cannot. So what do we do about it? Do we just accept the chaos of everyday living? Or do we find ways to thrive in the chaos of everyday living?

I’m going with option 2. Find ways to thrive in the chaos of everyday living.

Here’s why I’m selecting option 2, and why I’m highly recommending and encouraging you to do so as well. There is this belief that when someone is thriving in life it means that everything is going right. You’re do well at your job, you’re doing awesome in school. Maybe your relationship is the best it’s ever been, all your dreams are coming true. Whatever it may be the point is that there are a lot of really good and positive things happening in your life.

While this is and can be considered thriving in life, this is not the only way to thrive in life. I’m a firm believer that you can thrive even in the mist of chaos. Maybe you aren’t doing so well at your, but your personal life is the best it’s ever been. Or maybe school is challenging you in very specific and demanding ways right now, but your support team is keeping your spirits about getting through this rough patch alive. Yes, even when things aren’t going as we hope they are, we still have all the potential in the world to thrive in those situations. [Read more…]

5 Ways You Can Make Your Physical Health A Wellness Habit

Hi guys!

Man, this past week has been super busy for me! The day finally came when I got the greenlight to get my special project up and running and let me tell you…it was amazing!!! I’m talking a huge success! Very busy, a little bit of hiccups here and there, but once we got the ball rolling everything went rolling (in a good way). 2 hours and 30 minutes later day 1 of the shoot for my project was complete. Honestly, I didn’t think it would be able to pull it off, but somehow (with the help of my lovely little helpers) I was able to.

As a result of it I feel so accomplished, so happy, and so empowered. Most importantly I feel so ready to do more work like this! That’s so exciting, right!?! When people are doing the things that they love and they are finding fulfillment in doing it, even when they have their doubts about it. It’s literally the best feeling in the world simply because you proved all those doubtful thoughts you had about your ability to be able to do it wrong!

There was a lot of physical activity going on (not just with me but with my models and my helpers as well), and the heat was at an all time high (or maybe it was just me?). So, I had to make sure that I was staying on top of my physical wellness that day. I’m not just talking about being in the best shape possible to be able to actively move around and keep a good pace for the whole 2 hours and 30 minutes (because time is money). I’m also talking about making sure that my body was properly fueled from the inside out for the entire time period in order to keep a good pace going to ensure that we finished within the time frame we had scheduled.

Oh my gosh!!!

So much has happened this past month and is happening this month that I can’t even keep up emotionally! It feels so weird to admit that to myself (and you guys) out loud but it’s the truth. I’ve never been the type of person to handle stress and pressure from demands well, but somehow, I made it through this past month in one piece. I’m also a little nervous about this month and all the activities that I have planned but I’m sure with consistent practice of my wellness routine I will come out of this month in one piece as well.

Here’s a super quick update about everything that has happened in my life up to this very moment. I celebrated Father’s Day, 3 birthdays, and the 4th of July. I also sent out a super important email to my mother agency in search of models for a super cool project that I am working. Literally within a day of sending out that email I was getting tons of models who were interested and wanted to take part in the project.

So, I pretty much spent the rest of June, and so far, all of this month booking models, writing out detail plans for the projects, booking a location for the photoshoot, and even booking a photographer. On top of that of course I had school that I had to do every week, and this lovely blog to attend to for you all. It may not sound like a lot but take my word for it, it was completely exhausting!
