TrulyLivin believes 2019 is the Year of You!
Tina shares what that means for her life, and what it means to be authentically you, and live your authentic truth.
For so long, I have been saying, and will tell my clients to say, it's all about me.
Tina: “It's very important to be focused and to say that you are TrulyLivin and that it's all about you. It's about knowing who I am, and whose I am. Once I have that clarity and that understanding, I was really able to operate in my authentic truth.”

Tina: “And that's what I believe the Year of You is all about, is being truthful, to be intentional, and that is the focus. And how we should be living every day.”

There is only one YOU. No one can do it like you. Tina shares her recommendations for pushing forward and maintaining a growth mindset:
*Be aware of your fears and how they can show up in your life
*Acknowledge and embrace imprefections
*Replace the word “failing” with the word “learning”
*Stop seeking approval!
Tina: “When you prioritize approval over learning, you sacrifice the potential for growth.”
*Value the process over the end result
*Celebrate growth with a gratitude list
*Provide regular opportunities for reflection
*Use the word “yet” - I don't do well yet.
*Make a new goal every time you accomplish something
*Take risks and put yourself out there
*Take ownership for your attitude
