June is a great time to check in with our yearly goals that we created in January!

In this episode, I will be sharing what goals are, how they help us in our life and tips in achieving set goals using the SMART method.  S for Specific, M for Measurable, A for Actionable, R for Realistic, and T for Timely.  

Let's get started by Reflecting and Reviewing our Goals and then Rewriting or Realigning to get us on track to end 2021 where we want to be in our LIFE!  I hope this will inspire you to create goals and help you to implement your goals to achieve TREASURES in your LIFE!

Happy Goal Setting,
Michelle Durand

In this episode, I will be diving into eating for Blood Type A.  I am sharing my personal story of what led me to find Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo's book "Eat Right for Your Type":  https://www.amazon.com/Right-Your-Type-Revised-Updated/dp/0399584161/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=

In life, sometimes the things that cause us the most pain are filled with shame attached to them.  Shame keeps us suffering in silence making us feel alone which can lead to depression.  I lived decades in that situation until I realized that I really wanted to heal which meant dealing with the shame, pain, guilt, and all of the other complex emotions that follow the loss, trauma, or transition of any type.  

Whether you have been through or in the midst of those feelings from situations in your life, this episode will help you to not feel alone, to feel understood, and offers hope that you too can find true healing from any loss or pain that you're dealing with in your own life.

I also have an exciting announcement!!  I am launching an ebook (digital book) that you can purchase, download, and work with at your own pace in the privacy of your own space.  I will be taking you through the grief and healing process and sharing stories as examples from my own life to help you implement the things that you learn in the book.  If you would like to the first to find out when it launches, please email me at [email protected] and I will add you to the ebook launch list.

Thank you for listening, subscribing, and sharing this episode!

Mother's Day is known as a "celebration" honoring mothers, motherhood, and maternal bonds.  However, not everyone is celebrating this day.  In this episode, I am offering tips and ideas for those who may find this day difficult to handle for various reasons.

This episode is in response to a listener's question and comments regarding being in a relationship with an emotionally unavailable person.  She is left feeling frustrated and lonely.  

I can truly relate to her experience as I was also in relationships with emotionally unavailable people.  The feelings that this brings up can affect all areas of our lives.  I share some of the reasons that people become emotionally unavailable and how to relate to them better.  Perhaps, you are the one struggling with being emotionally unavailable, I also offer tips in that area.

I hope that this episode will bring clarity around the subject and tips in dealing with emotionally unavailable loved ones or perhaps yourself if you are the one struggling with being available emotionally in your relationships.

Thank you for listening, subscribing, and sharing!

Have you ever found that you lost yourself from a relationship, divorce, or loss of any type?

Sometimes in life, we neglect our own wants and needs in order to love and serve others.  We place their needs, wants, and feelings in priority over our own.  Most of the time, we do this as an expression of our love.  However, over time we can lose ourselves.  We then realize that we don't even know WHO we are anymore, what our role is, and our purpose in life.

I have experienced this many times in my life, but mostly after my divorce of a 15-year marriage with 2 children.  In this episode, I will be sharing my story along with practical tips and tools to help YOU discover yourself again after divorce or loss of any type.

I hope that this episode will inspire you with information for you to implement in order to create changes that create a LIFE YOU TREASURE!  Please reach out to me and let me know what part of the episode helped you the most and why.  I can't wait to hear from YOU!

You are worthy,

In this episode, I am sharing the importance of investing your time, energy, and finances in yourself.  Many times in our lives we don't feel worthy enough to do this.  However, it is crucial to our personal development of mind, body, and soul.  When we invest our time, energy, and money in better ourselves, then we can show up better for those we love and help.  

I hope that this episode will inspire you and help you realize that you are worthy of your time, money, and efforts.  You are worthy!

Peace, Love, and Joy,
