How many of you are trying to make changes in your life while holding on to everything you have now? Sometimes change means letting go. Sometimes you have to walk it alone because there is only room for one. Are you going to let the door of opportunity close because it's only slightly ajar, where only you can squeeze through?

Sometimes you just can't take everything and everybody with you.

But you can come back for those that truly loved and stayed with you during your climb to the top. ❤

We've all been there. And it's crushing. When that person turns out to be not who you thought they were. You were in love with a fake all along. Someone who pretended to be your soulmate. Your friend. And now you are angry and sad at the same time. How will you ever trust again?

Even though I know all the steps to take in a more confident life, I still find myself getting triggered by those that may not have as much faith in my life choices. Their little snide remarks made under their breath, still cause me to feel the need to explain myself to people that don't deserve a word from me. It's just a basic human need to feel accepted by others. And sometimes that includes the naysayers that are not in your corner. STOP! You only need to prove to yourself what you are able to do and why you do it. The opinions of others are just that...opinions. They are not fact! Nobody knows you like you know yourself. Keep going and stop explaining shit. ❤❤

We've all heard change is good. I live my life based on this rule. But change can also mean loss. Not only the loss of your old life but everyone that was in it. When finding friendship in others we seem to choose people with like interests. People that we don't have to explain anything too because they already know. So when we make a choice to cut something out of our life chances are we'll be cutting some of the people that went along with it out too.

This episode is to reach out to those uncertain. Uncertain on whether or not their lives have any worth or value, because they may feel unimportant. The reason you feel unimportant is because you were either raised unimportant or you are shown every day that you are unimportant by another. It is not who you really are. You have so much to offer the world but are being held back by another. Stop using that excuse and break free. You are meant to be free. Please listen, and allow the love for yourself to creep back into your heart once again. Where it was meant to stay.

You know, there are those devoted people out there that will stay with somebody no matter what...and in the end, they get, the no matter what. I'm sorry to say that this world is full of more takers than givers. And if you keep giving them chances, they are going to keep on taking. It is impossible for one person to keep a 2 person relationship going. All your efforts are just going to end up in the trash. Open your eyes and see what's going on. Because it's not love. It's control and manipulation.

We've all been there at one time or another, where we are required to do something, or pass a test that another presents in order to prove your love for them. BULLSHIT! Real love and affection doesn't do that. Love is natural. Love is comforting and relaxed. Never forced or attained by hoops of any kind. In this Podcast I speak from my heart and my gut. I lived it and I share it in order for others to learn and protect themselves from a life of constant questioning, and passing tests. That's not love. ❤💯💥

Being a mom is hard sometimes. Not only are you expected to maintain a household and participate in the breadwinning, but you're also responsible for other human beings...aka children. I don't care who you are or how much money you make... that's a lot of responsibility. You don't have to do it perfect. Quit comparing your lives to others and don't listen to the mom shamers. There's no one Handbook to this shit. You raise your kids the way you want to raise your kids. The goal is happy and healthy. And that goes for you too.

Just something short and sweet and to the point. I woke up this morning feeling good. I mean really good. Well how can you feel good when it's still dark outside? I just do. Early mornings are my best hours of the day. I remember thinking "I'm old" when I started going to bed early. Party girl Paula, at one time, closed the bars down. For years. Rising early had caused me to slow down. I've grown to love it so much that I build my daily life around it. If it keeps me up past 10pm... I'm out. Don't even invite me. Lame? To some, but who cares? They aren't living my life...I am.

We've all heard the phrase "the calm before the storm". But that phrase just invokes worry on what's coming next. It implies that we are never to remain calm because there's always a storm around the corner. That we must never be content where we are now, because everything could change in a blink of an eye. Sure everything can change in a blink of an eye. But I will relish in my contentment knowing that I found my happiness where I am now and not worry what comes next, because I know where to find my happiness again. I believe in the calm after the storm. I welcome the peaceful waters and soft breeze. It is only after the chaos you can find heaven in the calm. I will never swim in troubled waters ever again. I have learned to be grateful in the smallest of things and I will rest in peace while alive.
