Be humble, vulnerable and transparent

There are no accidents...

You have to go through it to get to it.

Stop looking out the window at your challenges and start looking in the mirror. Leave drama for the dramatic, share your victories to inspire others. Vulnerability and Transparency is when you will stand in your power. Acceptance, Being Passive, and Having a Soft Heart Does NOT mean you have to be a doormat.

We've trained people how to behave in our presence.

You want to complain?

1. The problem will stay with you

2. You will attract other complainers.

If you are challenged in a specific space in life, reach out to someone that can help you...we all can use a little help and there are special people willing to do so.

You don't have to DO more to experience more...Minimize to Maximize...Less is MORE.

Acknowledge all that is showing up in your life for what it is...an opportunity to grow

If you keep trying to be all things to all people you will end up being nothing to no one.Those people that don't support you? They are NOT your people.

We find out what we are truly made of in our darkest of days. Kristine Peacock was married with 3 little girls, her youngest was just 7 weeks old and life was moving along as planned...then in a moment everything changed. Her husband became ill with cancer and soon after passed away. A single mom with 3 little girls and her life turned upside down. Kristine turned tragedy into triumph...a brave soul moving forward following her passion in life while setting a great example of strength and perseverance for her little girls. This is truly a special woman with an amazing story that will fill your heart with hope through any situation you encounter.

7 1/2 years ago I started a personal journey inward. Through that time much has been shared with me generously by my teachers and guides...and to this day I continue to do that work, guided, and most important, share. Here are some of those guiding principles that have supported my growth and the growth of those I have been fortunate to work with over the years.

We continue to look outward for our solutions when all we need is within. We are experience junkies chasing the noise and fillers of society that give us temporary joy…we experience the momentary high…yet without a centering and rhythm with self we revert back to form of our current space in time that lacks fulfillment .

My past created my actions. Homeless, abandoned, and dead broke! And to think I'm just getting started with so much more to come.

A powerful and moving interview of commitment, values, principles and love with my good friend Miguel Aguilar

I woke up January 1st this year certain that I was seeking more. I was looking for answers and questioning what I had already learned. I had found a place of unbalance and was in need of changes that would facilitate a path to a better me. I am grateful that I was introduced to Interrupt The Pattern and took the journey of Coaching with Jon Cheplak. The experience has forever changed my landscape. I continue on an unwavering path doing this work of which Jon is an exceptional facilitator of. I am forever grateful for the experience and look forward to serving and supporting others seeking their own changes.

One thing you can count on in life is that everything changes. We like to think that everything in our lives will remain the same and we are very uncomfortable most times when things do change.

There is a certain kind of comfort in your pattern. Whatever it is, your pattern serves you by keeping you from feeling or facing something you would rather not feel.
