FOCUS – My Word For 2020

February 7, 2020

It took me some time this year to find my word for the year. But once it jumped out at me, it was crystal clear that this is my word. FOCUS is my word for the year 2020. I prefer to pick words that can be an action word and also a noun. In past years my words were Explore, Believe, Joy, Grow, and Challenge. I have a lot to FOCUS on this year and I’m excited for what my future holds.

What Am I Going To Focus On In 2020?

I Am Going To Focus On My Personal Growth

Last year I had the pleasure of going to NYC to see Gabby Bernstein for her Super Attractor Book Launch. I loved it! This year I am going to see Oprah during her “Oprah’s 2020 Vision: Your Life in Focus ” tour in NYC. with Claudia. I cannot WAIT to hear what will be shared during that event.

Last year when I was on the Oprah’s Girlfriends’ Getaway Cruise, I LOVED her live show that we attended on the ship. The message was just what I needed to hear, and I know this event will also provide me with the wisdom to help me grow during the year 2020.

Focus My Word For 2020

I think it’s pretty cool that the word I chose aligns with the year “2020” and also relates to vision and how vision is considered perfect when you have 20/20 vision. Also, ironically, the name of Oprah’s tour also lines up with my word. It was not intentional at all. I just felt that the word FOCUS was relevant to me.

I Am Going To Focus On My Running

My next race is the NYC Half Marathon. I am so excited that I was selected in the lottery for this race. I will run through Time Square and along the streets of NYC once again! The NYC Marathon was one of my favorite marathons. In 2017 I ran it, and I am waiting to hear of I get selected again to run it this year!

Focus - My Word For 2020

Since my nutrition has improved greatly, and I’ve lose almost 20 pounds, my running has also improved. I am getting faster, so I am hoping that will help me achieve a half marathon finish time of 2:30 or less. It would be great if I could reach that goal for the NYC half marathon! If not, I will be sure to run more half marathons during the spring and summer to get to that goal.

Several of my friends have also expressed an interest in running, especially running a runDisney race. I’d like to put together a group and help them with their training and register for either the Wine & Dine race weekend or next January’s race weekend.

I Am Going To Focus On My Health

Doctor Appointments

I am manifesting a life that’s healthier, both in mind and body! This year I started off the year with my appointments to see my dentist, dermatologist, and I’m in the processing making my mammogram and eye doctor appointments.

It’s time to make sure everything is the way it should be. My dermatologist found a basal cell carcinoma and I’ll be having that taken care of in a few weeks. Along with our mammograms, I think going to the dermatologist is one of our most important visits. Especially for runners, who are out in the elements all throughout the year.

I will be trying something new this year. Because I have been struggling with several migraines related to perimenopause, I want to try acupuncture with my doctors at Modern Health & Wellness. I’d like to take an integrative medical approach to the problem rather than treating it with drugs.

Nutrition

I have been seeing Dr. Jen for my nutrition and gut health and I have successfully lost 18 pounds since I began working with her. It wasn’t a dramatic, quick weight loss. It has been done without measuring out foods or fad dieting. She tested me for IgG Reactivity to foods.

Once we determined which foods cause inflammation in my body, we eliminated them, and added a probiotic and pre-biotic to my daily routine and I feel so much better! The weight loss is a side effect from all of the healthy changes I am making to my body!

It’s also important to know more about nutrition and what causes the inflammation. For instance, eating animal proteins does cause inflammation because it is harder for your intestines to break down those animal proteins. So I am eating more plant based proteins like legumes and nuts to get my protein in my diet.

With this new change, my blood tests have come back with significant improvement in my cholesterol! I am so excited for what this change has done for me. I feel better, my body is reaping the benefits from it and my family is also adapting some of my changes into their daily lives.

Focus - My Word For 2020

I Am Going To Focus On My Business Growth

The year is already starting off great! I have some SMART business goals for the year. I want to grow my blog traffic so that I can partner with mediavine for advertising. I am focusing on my Facebook Group – Wife Mother Runner to share my health and wellness journey and findings with my followers. And I want to do more photography work.

I am hoping to partner with more brands, to travel, and to provide knowledge on great places to travel, eat and share experiences with families. I want to educate my audience on products I love, systems that have been instrumental in my success, and stories that have helped me grow in all areas of my life.

I also have a goal to help families plan their vacations and make their dreams come true to travel by promoting more travel content for my travel agency. I wear a lot of different hats; but I’m trying to find out what really fuels my passion. I love technology, travel, fashion and fitness.

2020 Is Going To Be A Great Year!

I started off the year completing the Goofy Challenge, I am starting the second month of the year with the Oprah’s 2020 Vision Tour, and I’ll be starting off March with a 5 day mastermind cruise. That’s a strong start for the first quarter of the year!

I can’t wait to see what the rest of the year holds for me, too! Do you have a word for the year? I’d love to hear what it is! Leave a comment or visit my Facebook Group and share your word there!

5 Things I Learned To Have A Successful First Year In Business

5 Things I Learned To Have A Successful First Year In Business

March 20, 2019

This month my business has advanced into its second year. I was released from my consulting job a year ago.  Although it took a long time to get over the self-doubt and rebuild my confidence, I am now thankful for it.  I finally felt like I was able to let go of those feelings when I was on the Oprah cruise back in January.  During this past year there are 5 things that I have learned to have a successful first year in business.

5 Things I Learned To Have A Successful First Year In Business

1. Be Part Of A Community

I am so thankful for the people who I’ve met at conferences, through social media, and mastermind groups.  The women in these communities have been very open and welcoming to me and they all genuinely want to help one another. 

I can’t begin to tell you how much knowledge I have gained by being a part of these great groups.  I have been able to ask questions without judgment and really admire the women who have built their businesses from the ground up up and are now very successful in this industry. 

5 Things I Learned To Have A Successful First Year In Business

Being a entrepreneur, I work from home most of the time.  But when we I attend conferences, I have the opportunity to see my friends and make new friends.  I love the fact that at almost every event I have attended, I left with two or three great new friends that I remain in touch with throughout the year.  

2. Secure Multiple Sources Of Revenue

Blogging and social media marketing does generate revenue; but it doesn’t come automatically.  It takes times to build your reputation in the industry.  For that reason, I also provide consulting services to non-profit organizations, local businesses and I even have clients in New York City.

Providing these services allows me to keep my technology skills fresh and gives me the chance to learn new things as well.  It is also something steady to rely on should the social media industry have a drastic change.

Social media is constantly changing, and you can’t rely on building your business on someone else’s land.  That’s why it is important to also build real life relationships with individuals and brands as well.

3. Attend Conferences

One of the first things I started to do when I wanted to turn my blogging into a business, was find conferences related to blogging.  My favorite blogging conference is Mom 2.0.  I attended Mom 2.0 for the past two years and always came home with so many notes and great information on how to grow, organize, and manage my business.  Conferences are also a great place to network, talk to brands, and find PR contacts to introduce yourself to in hopes to work with them in the future.

My favorite social media marketing conference is Social Media Marketing World, which is run by Social Media Examiner.  I volunteered at SMMW last year and am currently there now.  This conference is AMAZING!  So many social media experts are there and the atmosphere is electric.  Being a volunteer is a lot of work but it is worth every minute.

5 Things I Learned To Have A Successful First Year In Business

We have the opportunity to network and interacting with the speakers, the attendees, sponsors, and other volunteers.  I’ve already exchanged business cards with several people that I am working with in my volunteer group and also individuals I met at the Pat Flynn Meetup last night!

5 Things I Learned To Have A Successful First Year In Business

4. Hire Experts To Do Things You Aren’t Comfortable Doing Yourself

I know a little bit about a lot of things.  But many times I don’t know enough of other things to take my business to the next level.  As I worked through my first year of my business I tried to do what I could; but learned that I needed to hire some experts to do things which would advance my business.

SEO is one of those skills that I am not well versed in.  Since I hired someone to manage my SEO, my traffic to my blog has increased greatly.  Even though it costs me a little extra for this service, the payout will be great in the end.

I also hired a business coach.  This is a great resource for me to bounce my ideas off of and to help keep my focus and directs me to the area I need to give more of my attention to.

5. Be Grateful

The most important lesson I learned this year is to be grateful.  I am grateful for every opportunity, large or small.  I am grateful for the people who have given me wonderful opportunities and experiences.

5 Things I Learned To Have A Successful First Year In Business

I have had the chance to do things I never imagined.  So now when I create my vision board every year, I add things that are dreams for me because dreams can come true.  Nothing is too big or too small to put on the vision board.  It is honestly, a little scary when I look back on what I put on the board last year and what actually came true!

Gratitude is a new trait that I have embraced this year.  I must admit that I am usually a glass half empty person.  My friends and I joked about it when we were away in Boston for a weekend last summer.  I keep a gratitude journal and when I am feeling stressed or down I stop myself in my tracks, take a deep breath and tell myself it is going to be a great day.

Being an entrepreneur isn’t easy. It’s not the safe route compared to a full time job with benefits.  But the rewards are so much greater because they are a direct reflection of your efforts.  I love being a business owner.  There are days that I question it; but rarely does that happen.  I have so much to do and learn that there isn’t time to allow self-doubt or negative thoughts to come in and take over my mind.

Are you and entrepreneur?  Have you always wanted to own your own business?  If you have questions about it, reach out to me, I’d love to talk to you about it!

Lessons From Oprah

Lessons I Learned On The Oprah Cruise

February 13, 2019

I came back from the Oprah’s Girlfriends’ Cruise with such a high. The cruise was my first cruise and it was one of the most amazing times in my life! I learned so many lessons from Oprah and my new friends!

When we embarked the Nieuw Statendam, there was a palpable energy, that you could feel. It began as soon as we sat down to lunch with two other women at our table. We laughed, we shared our anticipation of what we thought might happen. Then we took pictures of the “Dynamic Duo”. They gained that name after they called us the “Fabulous Four”.

With all of the lessons from Oprah and my new friends, I will be sharing them with you in several posts; and the Fabulous Four is also going to start a podcast about living our best lives. I can’t wait to start this new adventure!

Lesson 1 From Oprah – Be Kind To Yourself

I work hard and I play hard. But when I am working, it’s hard to get me out of work mode. And then when I am playing, it’s hard to get me back into work mode!

After we embarked the ship, we were hanging out on the balcony waiting for Lady O to arrive. Angie was sitting in the chair and I was standing at the railing. She told me she didn’t recognize this feeling she was having. We are both moms, she has three children, and I have two tweens. I knew exactly what she meant….

It is very rare to have a 12-18 hour period without our children and spouses. It takes your body and mind a while to allow ourselves to be selfish and relax. To actually have some calm and not have someone yelling “Mom!”, and needing something from you right away. Or then arguing with you because you are now going to be wrong for most things.

We don’t easily relax. It is very hard for me to relax. Even when I first arrived to Fort Lauderdale, I couldn’t go to the beach to read a book until I got some work done for a client first. Once I did go to the beach I read one page of the book I had and immediately had to get up because I wanted to take photographs of the waves and the beautiful ocean view. I also wanted to explore the Marriott Harbor Beach Resort which was next door to our hotel.

After I thought about this, I realized that it was ok that I didn’t sit down in a chair to read. I was doing what I wanted to do and I had fun playing with my new camera at one of my favorite hotels. And then getting the chance to get a selfie with the first resort I ever worked with, when I was in event planning at 18 years old! Mike and Jeff still worked at the hotel. That says a lot for the resort that they work for! Lessons From Oprah

Lesson 2 From Oprah – Be Vulnerable

If you know me well, you know that I NEVER leave my house without makeup. On this trip, the girls met me on day one without my makeup on, wearing my glasses, and watching Netflix on my ipad.

With four girls in a cabin, we took quick showers, without washing our hair and making little fuss to get all dolled up. I quickly put on a tinted moisturizer, very little eye makeup and off I went. It was great that I didn’t really care; I let myself be vulnerable and didn’t feel so vain.

Vulnerability is the birthplace of innovation, creativity and chance. Brené Brown

After we returned home from the cruise, I told the girls that I had so much fun on the cruise because I let myself be vulnerable. Heather told me that when you allow yourself to be vulnerable, happiness can come in. Lessons From Oprah

Lesson 3 from Oprah – Surrender

This year my Intentions are very strong. I am making some decisions as a business, with a strategy. Letting go of things that I don’t know as much about; so it can be taking care by an expert who does.

Doing a job you don’t like is fantastic information for you, because knowing what you don’t want helps leads you to what you do want. Oprah
Lessons From Oprah

Yes we were this close to Oprah!

I surrendered. I finally stopped looking back and set my course with the ship and Only-Looked-Forward. On the last night, I literally felt the wind in my face and the negative feelings were being stripped off of me and blown past the ship into the sea. I felt that a weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. I felt like my old self again. The kids noticed it when I came in the house. They saw my smile, my smile was back.

There is no such thing as a Coincidence.

Nothing new can come into your life unless you are grateful for the things you have.

You can release yourself from being a victim and take control back into your life.

You don’t become what you wish for, you become what you believe. What you were given was what you were called to use. Oprah

Just read that again and sit with it. It’s a powerful message and helped me set my intentions for this year.

This Year Is Going To Be Amazing! Six weeks into this year, I have already had two very large and amazing experiences. I also received four sponsored Instagram campaigns. These are important opportunities for me and my business goals.

We attract into our lives the things that we want. That is based on what we are thinking and feeling. We create our own realities and our own circumstances. Oprah

I am confident that I am attracting into my life the things that I want. That’s why I am excited to Explore this year!

I had an amazing time with new friends. It felt like a teenage sleepover party, or what dorm life would have been if I hadn’t gone to community college. It was like summer camp! I can’t wait until the next time the four of us can get together again and play dress up, have a pajama party and laugh until our sides hurt! Lessons From OprahHave you ever been on a cruise with friends?  I’d love to hear about your experience!  Share it with me in the comments.  I’d love to hear which cruise line you were on and what you thought of it.  The Holland America Cruise Line is beautiful.  I have been on a tour of the Disney Magic, but never sailed on it.

My Brain Feels Like Scrambled Eggs

August 30, 2018

Do you feel like your brain is scrambled? Do you try to start one thing on your to do list, only to find out an hour later, you have been down a rabbit hole because you opened a browser window on your computer and ended up on Facebook or YouTube watching videos mindlessly? Do the notifications on your phone stop you from what you are doing and pull you off track?

Scrambled Egg Brain

If you are suffering from symptoms of feeling overwhelmed, lack of concentration, lack of motivation or loss of focus, then welcome to my club. This past weekend I went up to Boston for a 24 hour trip to visit with my best girlfriends.  They were in town for a conference and there was no way I was going to miss seeing the both of them at once!  Karen lives out in California now, and Heidi and I haven’t been able to connect throughout most of the summer because of our schedules.  I NEEDED to see my girls!  I needed to talk to them about all of these feelings I was having.  I needed to know if I was going crazy.

We went to a restaurant for dinner and I felt wound up.  I was so glad to see them but I wasn’t “relaxed”.  It was so bad that even the waiter noticed, sat down next to me and told me to chill out, take my time, take a breath and there was no rush to get our order figured out and put in right away.

What Is the Prescription for Scrambled Egg Brain?

I had an excellent conversation with another close friend of mine today and she told me the first thing that I need to do is BREATHE. She nailed it on the head!  I haven’t been breathing.  I am drowning in my own thoughts.  I am my own worst enemy.  Here are four steps to help you get your head back on straight.

  1.  Breathe.  Before you work on something you need to focus on, set aside a few minutes to breathe.  If you are about to sit down and work for the day, sit down to meditate first.
  2. Learn to say no.  This is a big one.  Since I am new to starting off blogging as a business it’s hard for me to turn away opportunities. I need to be specific and selective with the type of work I am going to do.  I can’t take on jobs just for the sake of making a quick dollar.  The work needs to be purposeful and hopefully will end up turning into more opportunities.  My friend Claudia shared this video today from Shonda Rhimes that I feel is perfect.
  3. Take time out for YOU.  If you can’t take care of yourself, how are you going to take care of everything else?  I KNOW that I haven’t been taking care of myself.  I am not getting my endorphin fix from working out and running like I used to.  I have completely fallen off my wagon of running because of the heat these past few weeks.  I have to stop making excuses and start moving.
  4. Set your intentions.  This is key for me.  Once my goals and intentions are in place, everything else will fall into place.

Unplug

I found out that one more thing has been helpful to me in the past week.  I am intentionally leaving my phone in another room when I am done working for the day.  My next step is going to be to turn off notifications so that I don’t have to see every email or tweet that comes across.  Rather than having it pushed to me I would rather go fetch the emails on my time.  Same for other notifications.  I feel that today’s habits are now ruining the way we think, act, and socialize.  I want to get back to the old way of doing things.  Like when you went on vacation and didn’t have a laptop with you, you couldn’t check your email until you got home!  Imagine that???

Do you feel like your brain is scrambled?  Are you overwhelmed?  I would love to hear how you are handling it.

 

I Was In A Wrinkle In Time

I Was In My Own Wrinkle In Time

March 15, 2018

Many things that have been happening in my life lately are wishes and dreams that I have added to my vision board.  I look at that board every day, and I try to view it before bed so that the ideas and dreams can manifest in my subconscious while I am sleeping.  When I first created the vision board at the beginning of the year, I did not realize the power that it has.  When my friend mentioned to me that it makes her emotional, I didn’t understand that.  Now I get it.  This is an amazing activity that should be done every year.

How Does This Relate to A Wrinkle In Time?

I took the family to see A Wrinkle In Time and was blown away by the similarities of the movie to what I was experiencing in my life right now.  The father, who is a scientist, had “tessered” into a place in time (a fifth dimension), and was missing for four years.  The family missed him dearly and it was affecting them through all the areas in their life.

They went on a quest to find him.  While on this quest they met three women referred to as the “Missus”.  Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Which.  They were guardian angels to Meg, her little brother Charles Wallace, and her friend Calvin.  The children discovered the “tesseract” that provides them the ability to travel in time thanks to her little brother.

You have to find the right frequency in order to get to that place.  Similar to them finding the right frequency to get to that special place, I had to find the right frequency in my life to get to where I am today.

Letting Go

Meg was always facing challenges and dealing with negativity from others that was bringing darkness and doubt to her thinking.  She questioned herself and her abilities.  The kids and staff at the school mocked and made fun of Meg and her brother about their father.  Those thoughts bothered Meg and she carried that with her when she was tessering but she had to learn how to let that go.  The negativity caused pain.

I had been facing challenges for a space of time like Meg had been.  I too, was experiencing a lot of self-doubt, lack of confidence, and emotional pain.  I was depressed, losing my joy, and struggling to find what makes me happy in my work.

I love my family and I am very grateful that they have always been here to support me.  But when you have a job, your children, or spouse, or immediate family can’t perform that job for you.  You have to be independent.

I had to heal from things that were holding me back.  Those things that were holding me back and causing me self doubt were represented by the dark place in the movie that was creeping into the character’s minds.  It’s hard enough to believe in ourselves, we don’t need others who are negative to make us second guess ourselves.

Believe In Yourself

If you don’t believe all the way, it will hurt.  Meg, the daughter in the movie who was looking for her father was lacking in belief so when she was tessering, it hurt her.

You have to be courageous to make hard decisions for yourself.  I had some decisions for my life made for me; but that life event caused me the opportunity to make a decision to take my next steps for my business plan.

Meg had to be the person in the movie who was ready to trust herself and believe in herself to do what she needed to do to save her father and bring everyone back home.  As they journey through time, Meg learned a lot about herself from the “Missus”.

Living For Today

Spoiler alert!  The last part of the movie was the stab to my heart.  When everyone returned back to earth and their home Meg’s father told her “I wanted to shake hands with the universe… when the hand I should’ve been holding was yours.”

THIS is my moment to embrace my children now. When the father said that to Meg I felt extremely guilty.  I am a working parent and my son has said to me several times recently that I am working too much and he doesn’t get to see me as much.  I had to remind him that I was trying real hard to do a good job so that we can do the fun things that we enjoy doing and so that maybe one day I can be my own boss and have more time.

I don’t blame the father for trying to reach the stars, he is an adult who had dreams and aspirations.  I think it is important for our children to see us work hard and try to achieve our dreams.  But there is also that fine balance of putting work aside to make time for what is most important – your family.

Now I have a chance to manage my time more efficiently to set my own hours and be around for my children, to play with them again and to also show them that sometimes when something doesn’t work out, it is because something better is waiting for you.

Savor The Time

Time is passing far too quickly than I want.  I have been feeling it a lot on my heart lately as my son’s eyes are getting closer and closer to being at the same level as mine.  Before long I will be looking up at him.

My daughter is becoming more and more like a tween than my little baby girl.  I’m trying so hard to keep them little; but I know they need to start growing up and experiencing the things that they should be at their age.  Even if some of those experiences are going to be hard for them.  I can’t always protect them and go to their rescue.  They are going to need to find it within themselves to find their strength, their voice, and the light in themselves.

A Wrinkle In Time

A Wrinkle In Time Coming to Theaters March 19, 2018

November 27, 2017

When we were at the movies this past weekend for the Opening of Disney Pixar’s COCO we saw the trailer for A Wrinkle In Time.  This movie looks sooooo good!

Take a peek at the trailer here!

About A Wrinkle In Time

First of all, I LOVE Oprah Winfrey!   Secondly, I love sci-fi movies.  This movie looks so mysterious, complicated and interesting!

From visionary director Ava DuVernay comes Disney’s “A Wrinkle in Time,” an epic adventure based on Madeleine L’Engle’s timeless classic which takes audiences across dimensions of time and space, examining the nature of darkness versus light and, ultimately, the triumph of love. Through one girl’s
transformative journey led by three celestial guides, we discover that strength comes from embracing one’s individuality and that the best way to triumph over fear is to travel by one’s own light.

Meg Murry is a typical middle school student struggling with issues of self-worth who just wants to fit in. The daughter of two world-renowned physicists, she is intelligent and uniquely gifted, as is Meg’s younger brother, Charles Wallace, but she has yet to realize it for herself. Complicating matters is the mysterious
disappearance of Mr. Murry, which has left Meg devastated and her mother broken-hearted. Charles Wallace introduces Meg and her fellow classmate Calvin to three celestial beings (Mrs. Which, Mrs. Whatsit and Mrs. Who) who have journeyed to Earth to help search for their father, and together they embark on their formidable quest. Travelling via a wrinkling of time and space known as tessering, they are transported to worlds beyond their imagination where they must confront a powerful evil force. To make it back home to Earth, Meg must face the darkness within herself in order to harness the strength
necessary to defeat the darkness rapidly enveloping the Universe.

Directed by Oscar® nominee Ava DuVernay from a screenplay by Oscar winner Jennifer Lee based upon the beloved novel by Madeleine L’Engle, “A Wrinkle in Time” stars: two-time Academy Award® nominee Oprah Winfrey as Mrs. Which, Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon as Mrs. Whatsit, Emmy® nominee
2 Mindy Kaling as Mrs. Who, Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Mrs. Murry, Michael Peňa as Red and introducing Storm Reid as Meg Murry, with two-time Emmy winner Zach Galifianakis as The Happy Medium and Emmy nominee Chris Pine as Mr. Murry.

Produced by Jim Whitaker and Catherine Hand with Doug Merrifield serving as executive producer, the film also boasts an impressive creative team featuring some of the most talented and skilled craft persons working today, including: Tobias Schliessler, ASC as director of photography, Naomi Shohan as production designer, Oscar®-nominee Spencer Averick as film editor and two-time Academy Award®-nominee Paco Delgado as costume designer.
