Is it really chemistry, or is it chaos disguised as a situationship starter pack? Love bombing is when someone comes in hot, throwing compliments, gifts, and romantic gestures. If it's too intense at the beginning, it's pretty obvious to see the red flags. The subtle kind gets trickier.

Don't confuse attention for connection.

Social media sells us a magical "soft life" full of relaxation, luxury, ease, boundaries, and the perfect husband. How many people are really living that life? How many are just putting on the mask of perfection, while really just avoiding real life? How can you build that life and sustain it?

Asking the real questions today. Always growing!

You know what I'm talking about. Do you keep finding yourself in the same kind of  situationships with people that you thought had so much potential, but they never delivered? Do you find that you're pouring yourself into this person, just trying to help them be what you believe they can be, only to end up feeling depleted?

Those aren't partners - they're projects. Some people just don't have the capacity to give what you deserve in a relationship. You can't manifest a whole partner while entertaining half built people. Don't confuse someone's potential with compatibility!

It's been a minute, but I'm back! I've had to do some heavy healing with myself.

Healing is hard. It's heavy, and it doesn't always look cute. Social media would have you believe that healing is just bubble baths and chocolate. That can be part of it, but the real healing happens when you're uncomfortable. Lean into it and show up for it!

Sometimes we find ourselves in sticky situations with friends, relationships, clients or family. Do you always consider all viewpoints in a conflict, or do you sometimes react prematurely?

Everyone comes into every situation from their own vantage point. There may be emotions already brewing, prior history with the people involved, or even fears and biases that color each person's perspective. 

It's worth it to take the time to reflect on your own reaction, emotions, and assumptions when you run into a conflict. Are you a co-conspirator? Might their point of view be just as correct as yours?

When you set a goal or intention, following the path there is like following GPS. Sometimes you think you know better, but sometimes a detour comes along you didn't expect. The thing is, life's GPS doesn't care where you've been. It cares where you are, and where you're going.

I've been expanding my salon and let me tell you, it's been a lot. I don't always follow the path my life GPS is leading me, and sometimes I wish I had because I can't alway see the obstacles that are coming. Tune in for an inspiring discussion on goal setting, handling setbacks, and persistently moving forward.

Today I'll reflect on the year 2024 and discuss the rapid passage of time, personal growth, and life lessons learned. I'll delve into my experiences with relationships, accountability, and the importance of self-reflection. On my journey of self-improvement, I've heard from people from my past that have made me think about how I handle myself and how I affect the people around me. As I look forward to 2025, there's huge value in living in the moment, appreciating where one has been, and being selective about who to share one's energy with. 

Tune in for an insightful conversation on growth, gratitude, and the excitement of new beginnings.

Have you ever found yourself getting so lost in the past that you lost track of the present? That's what I'm talking about today. The other day with a client, I got so deep looking into what we had done with her hair the last time that I didn't notice that we already had a plan for that day.  The past got you here. The future isn't here yet. Be present in today and know that you've got the right tools in place.
