We all have behaviors that no longer serve us, but they used to. This book lets you look inside to see what behavior patterns you’ve developed that are no longer serving you. They may actually be holding you back from your dreams!

I first read it two years ago and still find the exercises useful.

It’s easy to get caught up in your own crap and forget about the person on the other side of you. Well, they have their own crap that they’re dealing with too.

The solution: look out of your bubble and remember other people have as complex lives as you do. Things are seldom exactly as you think.

If you think you’re always right, you probably need to think again. Comment YES is you’re ready for a challenge!

One of the issues is that when we get excited on social media, we stop breathing deeply. And when we stop breathing deeply, there’s less oxygen in our body, which leads to more anxiety and stress. Consider this your call to calm.

Close your eyes and take some deep breaths. Make the out breath longer than the in breath. This activates your parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system to help you relax.

Breath in love, breath out stress. You’re right here and you’re okay.

Do it with me:

Long in, longer out
Long in, longer out
Long in, longer out
Long in, longer out
Long in, longer out
Long in, longer out

Keep going as long as you need.

There was a time in my life when I dreaded Mondays. I was living in Japan and 3 of my neighborhood cafes opened well before I needed to go to work. So Mondays became coffee shop Mondays. I would go with a friend or with a book and enjoy a couple of hours first thing on Monday morning.

Here’s the crazy part. I woke up EARLIER on MONDAY than the rest of the week because of ANTICIPATION. I gave myself something to look forward to - a time for connection with a friend or a pleasurable moment with a book. This took the focus from work to something I looked forward to an found enjoyable.

How can you use anticipation to flip your thinking about a time or place?

Have you ever labeled something “impossible”? For years, that’s how I felt about visiting Australia and New Zealand—until I made it happen.

I used to think this trip was too far, too expensive, too impractical. But I changed my thinking and for my 44th birthday, I gave myself the ultimate gift: a first trip of a lifetime. Six countries in six weeks, each more magical than I imagined.

What made it even more special were the connections—meeting old friends, sharing meals, and embracing the serendipity of adventure. The most amazing things happened, so that this trip surpassed my original dreams.

This trip reminded me that when we embrace adventure, the impossible becomes possible. What dream have you labeled “impossible”? Download my free guide, ‘5 Secrets to Rediscover Joy and Passion in Midlife,’ and take the first step toward making your impossible a reality.

As we head into the holidays and you’ll be spending more time with loved ones, take a moment to ground yourself. How will you make space for joy?

Set your intention BEFORE the family dinner, New Year’s party, etc. of how you want to show up. How do you want to feel and how do you need to think and act for it?

Happy holidays whether you just have some time off or are celebrating Christmas, a birthday, Kwanzaa, or something else in the next two weeks! 🧡

Intention helps us decide how we show up in out lives, every day. It’s also useful in the moment if you can slow down enough to tune in.

What’s your gift? Use it with intention.
