How PURPOSE has changed me. Chapter 1. Personal

Living on PURPOSE is vital to my life, and outlining it is essential to everyone’s. Here’s how it has affected me… PERSONAL: It’s changed my life substantially. This is WHY I wrote the MAKE IT HAPPEN planner. I was feeling defeated with everything, like I was putting in the work and the hours and I was so unhappy with myself and the results. Between running two resorts, working with my dad’s trucking company, being a mom and working out to maintain a healthy body type. I was

Being in tune with your mental health is a huge part of understanding your PURPOSE. You may feel like your life is a rollercoaster of emotions, and that’s so flippin normal. What is important is understanding why you’re feeling the way you are. I know you’ve all heard of my scissors of cutting out the negative bullshit in your life, but it’s so important. If you find yourself constantly feeling anxious or annoyed and irritated, look at what is making you feel like that. If yo

TGIF?

TGIF: Can be so controversial & for good reason. If you are like me and 42% of the population in the United States, you work weekends. SO, THANK GOODNESS I GET TO WORK THIS WEEKEND? Wowsa. But seriously, THANK GOODNESS you get the opportunity to expand your workdays in a week to the weekend too. It's basically free time you get to accomplish endeavors. That may mean on Monday, when everyone is just getting to their start of the workweek, you get to go explore nature in a kaya

Are Your Friends Really Friends?

A friend as defined by Webster is this: “Friend: a person whom one knows and with whom one has a bond of mutual affection.” A friend to ME: People who truly care if you are succeeding, happy, healthy are those who are actually friends. I’ve said it a million times, “people who don’t have a deep sense of meaning, lean on instant gratification and pleasure to fulfil the void.” How can we avoid? By writing out PURPOSE and living by it! It’s seriously as simple as that. Bonus poi

QUICK START: Sylists & Massage Therapist

Massage day is ALWAYS a great day, but today was exceptional. Typically, I get massaged once monthly but I have been slacking so hard on maintaining myself in the last year. I have been too busy making a life that I forget to live it. (Side note, I struggled with a migrane for 4 weeks straight. I went to the ER, got botox, of course I used essential oils, and even took medication: NOTHING HELPED until I finally went in for a head/neck massage) Thank you Natalie @ La Bella Vit

If its not too late to snow in April, then it's not too late for you to get your sh*t together.

My aunt is a business owner, wife and mother of two. She KNOWS the importance of time management. She KNOWS the importance of scheduling and quarterly forecasts. She is just hanging on to this thought that she is "lazy" and if she starts using her Make It Happen Planner, she no longer has an excuse. She even struggles with seasonal depression at times, so WHY the heck wouldn't she write out her PURPOSE and start living it. WHyyyyyyyyyyyy. She has the tools and doesn't want to

"I Was Raised to Say Please and Thank You, Did Someone Forget to Tell This Generation?"

"I Was Raised to Say Please and Thank You, Did Someone Forget to Tell This Generation?"

Girl Please. I just read this on someone’s social media and almost puked. First of all, as parents of any generation, It’s your duty to implement please, thank you, and all other manners that make for a satisfying life. Perhaps it died when you, as parents, failed to take responsibility and started blaming others and generalizing “our generation” as entitled little assholes. Instead of going along with society in defaming our generation, I challenge you to make a difference!
